在中国传统的农业社会里,乡绅是一个非常特殊的阶层,他们不同于普通的劳动者,也不同于被国家任命的官员,但是,他们却调整着整个乡村社会的秩序。从文化方面对乡绅权力进行探寻,乡绅权力主要来源有四个方面:一是他们饱读儒家经典;二是科举制的影响;三是他们的自我道德修养;四是世家传承。这些共同构成了乡绅的权力来源,正是因为他们具有这些方面的特征,才能得到广大民众的认可,有条不紊的治理着最基层的乡村社会。
In the traditional Chinese agrarian society, the squire was a very special class of people, different from ordinary laborers and officials appointed by the state. However, they adjusted the order of the entire rural community. From the cultural aspects of the search for the power of squires, the main source of squire power comes from four aspects: First, they are well-versed in Confucian classics; second, the impact of the examination system; third, their self-morality; fourth, family heritage. These together form the source of the squire’s power. It is precisely because they possess these characteristics that they can be recognized by the general public and govern the grassroots rural society in an orderly manner.
