本文通过分析台湾杨氏族商的殖产过程及商业经营状况,讨论了以往学界对于传统家族制度批评的诸问题。指出社会生产规模与效益的扩大,是需要社会的诸多因素加以配合的,杨氏家族在清代台湾生产资源较为丰富、市场条件相对良好的社会环境里,繁衍经营,虽然历经近200年的殖产与分家析产的沿袭过程,家族规模与经济实力并没有日益细分萎缩化,相反地不断有所扩展壮大。而在另一方面,中国家族制度所具有的包容性和适他性的文化特征,使得杨氏家族在清代后期社会环境与社会经济不断变化的情景下,能够不失时机地适应商业市场经济变化的潮流,以传统的家族共有财产,直接投资于工商业活动。这也揭示了中国传统家族制度完全有可能在近现代的社会经济变迁中,发挥比较积极的适应和促进工商业市场经济进步的作用。
This article discusses the problems of the criticism of the traditional clan system by the scholars in the past by analyzing the production process and commercial management of Yang Clan in Taiwan. It points out that the expansion of social production scale and efficiency requires the cooperation of many factors in the society. The Yang family flourished in the social environment in which the productive resources in Taiwan were relatively abundant and the market conditions were relatively good in the Qing Dynasty. Production and sub-family analysis of the inheritance process, the family size and economic strength has not subsided increasingly subdivided, on the contrary has been expanded and expanded. On the other hand, the inclusive and adaptive cultural characteristics of the Chinese family system allow the Yang family to seize the opportunity to adapt to the changes in the market economy under the circumstance of ever-changing social environment and social economy in the late Qing Dynasty Trend, the traditional family-owned property, direct investment in business activities. This also reveals that it is entirely possible for the Chinese traditional family system to play a more active role in adapting to and promoting the economic progress in business and industry in the modern social and economic changes.
