China Rational Choice Of The Transformation Of Social Relations In Society

In the book of "native China," Fei Xiaotong proposed the concept "differential pattern", which is well illustrated the traditional Chinese society, which is unlike, "unit pattern" of the western countries'social relations. Recalling Mr. Fei's concept "differential pattern", we can draw this conclusion. First, the Native Community, in accordance with the people's basic blood relationship between themselves and others to determine the proximity and although, The so-called differential pattern of behavior is established on this basis. Secondly, the blood relationship is the method to judge people's actions re-legitimate and justification or not.At present, China is in the accelerated period of transition from traditional to a modern society .The social, economic, cultural, and other areas have undergone profound changes. Especially since the beginning of reform and opening up, urbanization and modernization process begins to accelerate, increasing people's social activities. Geographical, occupational mobility is accelerating. More and more people began to move out of the original circle of acquaintances to enter the social circle of strangers. It also means people's "differential pattern", which is on the based on blood and geography, is bound to change.Based on the analysis of some typical cases, I find that the intensity of a blood relationship can be changed by construction later. For the man who can be expected to benefit from, people's giving gifts, broker's introducing (personal bridge structures), or increasing the frequency of interaction can make their relationship stronger. People build new relations, usually through external differential pattern. The relationship construction's aim is hope for the future conduct between social transactions in accordance with the principle of special (personal principle), and thereby to achieve the objective of profit. This shows that the structure of social relations in China's social and cultural structure is based on rational choice. The new pattern of interpersonal relationship building through external to the differential method is not negative to China's social order pattern of human relationships, which showed precisely in the current Chinese strangers society, "acquaintance society" principles still play a significant role. Due to the existence of culture from falling, from the humanitarian community in order to achieve social change to the lease also need to be a transition period. At present, we should gradually improve the present legal system and to reduce the operating room of "acquaintance society", also guide the "acquaintance" to the healthy development and play a positive role in social integration. It will help us realize the benign operation and coordinated development of China's society.
