The Chinese economy is undergoing dramatic changes and the world is watching and changing along with it. The Chinese family is also changing in many ways in response to the economic transformation that is moving the world’s most populous nation from an agrarian economy to a global superpower. This is the first book in English to describe and explain the social transformation of the Chinese family from the perspective of Chinese researchers. Presenting a comprehensive view of the Chinese family today and how it has adapted during the process of modernization, it provides description and analysis of the trajectory of changes in family structures, functions, and relationships. It tracks how Chinese marriages and families are becoming more diverse and face a great deal of uncertainty as they evolve in different ways from Western marriages and families. The book is also unique in its use of national statistics and data from large-scale surveys to systematically illustrate these radical and extraordinary changes in family structure and dynamics over the past 30 years. Demonstrating that the de-institutionalization of family values is a slow process in the Chinese context, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of Chinese Studies, Sociology, Social Policy and Family Policy.

The family has long been viewed as both a microcosm of the state and a barometer of social change in China. It is no surprise, therefore, that the dramatic changes experienced by Chinese society over the past century have produced a wide array of new family systems. Where a widely accepted Confucian-based ideology once offered a standard framework for family life, current ideas offer no such uniformity. Ties of affection rather than duty have become prominent in determining what individuals feel they owe to their spouses, parents, children, and others. Chinese millennials, facing a world of opportunities and, at the same time, feeling a sense of heavy obligation, are reshaping patterns of courtship, marriage, and filiality in ways that were not foreseen by their parents nor by the authorities of the Chinese state. Those whose roots are in the countryside but who have left their homes to seek opportunity and adventure in the city face particular pressures – as do the children and elders they have left behind. The authors explore this diversity focusing on rural vs. urban differences, regionalism, and ethnic diversity within China. Family Life in China presents new perspectives on what the current changes in this institution imply for a rapidly changing society.

CHAPTER II The Ancient Chinese Family System Passing from what may be called the formative period of Chinese social history, the period from primitive times to the Chow dynasty, 1122-1255 B. C, when the family system was in the making, we come now to a more advanced stage of Chinese civilization. It is generally said that the climax of the civilization of ancient China was reached under the Chowjdynasty. To a large extent, this is true. Besides the establishment of an efficiently working governmental system, many other social institutions assumed definite forms during this period, among them, the family system. The family system under the Chow dynasty deserves caroful and detailed consideration for it has been perpetuate 1 with relatively slight modifications down to the present dayi; The present system is essentially andfundamentally like its ancient predecessor. The study of the somewhat simpler system of the earlier period should help greatly in the analysis of the system of today. I. THE FAMILY LIFE OF THE ANCIENT CHINESE Family life under the Chow dynasty is portrayed as harmonious and happy. Popular sentiment regarding home life is well expressed in folk-songs of the time: "Happy union with wife and children is like the music of lutes and harps." The wife is depicted as frugal and industrious, loving her husband, rejoicing in her family.1 Among many poems of the period, describing the happiness of family life, the following ode gives a simple picture of a wife of the lower class: 1 She King (Translation by James Legge), pt. I, bk. II, odes II and IV. AH quotations from She King are taken from this translation. "How the dolichos spread itself out, Extending to the middle of the valley! Its leaves were luxuriant and dense. I cut it...
