流氓在中国古代史上约略出现于西周时期,经过先秦时期动荡的社会变化,到秦汉时期已经在一个相对松散的社会层面上构成了一个不可小视的社会势力。汉代社会中所表现出的流氓活动是汉代政治、经济、文化心理、人伦道德规范、社会价值取向、社会习俗风尚等众多的社会思潮的信息反馈。 Rogue appeared roughly in the Western Zhou Dynasty in the ancient Chinese history. Through the turbulent social changes in the pre-Qin period, Qin and Han Dynasties have formed a social force that should not be underestimated on a relatively loose social level. The rogue activities in the Han society are the feedbacks of numerous social thoughts such as politics, economy, cultural psychology, moral norms of humanity, social values, social customs and so on.
