【内容提要】本文以“农二代”城市新移民家庭的代际共育为经验研究对象,讨论农业家庭进城后中间一代在同居共育过程中重建家庭平衡的实践过程。一方面,面对强大的现代化压力,中间一代有意识地依据培养现代个体的观念与技术来抚育子代,他们对自己儿时被抚育经历的反思强化了“为人父母”时抚育理念的现代化,造成祖代与中间一代观念上的显性断裂。另一方面,在共居育儿的生活实践中,中间一代又隐性承袭了亲子一体的传统意识,既会无意识地调用亲子一体的伦理资源来平衡家庭关系,也可能在不同程度上存在“文化自觉”,体认到育儿的现代实践依赖传统一体的支持。“一体”与“个体”的交织塑造着家内行动者尤其是女性的感情世界。这一过程既展现了中国式现代化进程中传统伦理深沉而恒常的支持力量,又蕴含着其在当下实现创造性转化的可能。

【关 键 词】中国式现代化, 亲子一体, 现代个体, 密集母职, 文化自觉

Discernible Break-off and Implicit Continuity:Modernization of Family Ethics from the Perspective of Intergenerational Co-Parenting in China

Abstract: This article examines the intergenerational co-parenting experiences of “rural second-generation” urban immigrant families,and the practical process of rebuilding family balance by the second generation in cohabitation and co-parenting setting during the urbanization of rural households. Under the intense pressure of modernization,the middle generation consciously wants to raise their children according to the concepts and skills of cultivating modern individuals,causing a significant break off from the ideas of grandparent generation. At the same time,with the practice of co-living and parenting sharing,the middle generation has implicitly continued traditional notions of parent-child unity(qinzi yiti) to balance family relationships. To various degrees a “cultural consciousness” may have occurred to recognize the dependence of modern childrearing practices on the support of traditional family unity. The intertwining of unity(yiti) and individuality(geti) shapes the emotional world of family members. When the middle generation develops a recognition of “unity” alongside individual reflection on individualism,the apparent differences between tradition and modernization can be bridged,and both individuality and unity can be genuinely implemented. When the middle generation exercises individual space within unity,obvious differences can be rationalized in family life. However,when the middle generation fails to coordinate properly,unity and individuality may fragment into two opposing forces that can tear apart the family. It is noteworthy that conflicts and deep divisions in rural families often happen between grandparents and mothers. This phenomenon may indicate that the intensive modernization and ideological conflicts have likely placed women at the precise intersection of social and familial tensions. The study not only highlights the profound and enduring support of traditional ethics in the Chinese modernization process but also underscores its potential for creative transformation in the present context.

Key words: Chinese modernization, parent-child unity(qinzi yiti), modern individual, intensive motherhood, cultural consciousness
