明前期,北方土地开发未能建成以“先王之世”相标榜的丰衣足食的乡村社会,其反倒成为生态环境与乡村社会恶性互动的内在机制。其中,环境问题则是土地开发夭折与乡村社会过早陷入“三荒”危机的重要病理之一。最终,明前期的“三荒”现象成为一种极端的社会自然化现象,与它在前代的对应物一起推动着中国传统小农社会的长期延续。 In the early Ming Dynasty, the Northern Land Development failed to build a well-to-do rural society marked by “prequel”, which turned out to be the inherent mechanism of the vicious interaction between the ecological environment and rural society. Among them, the environmental problems are one of the important pathologies in which the land development dies out and the rural society prematurely falls into the crisis of “three wildernesses.” Finally, the phenomenon of “three deserts” in the pre-Ming period became an extreme phenomenon of socialization, which, along with its predecessors’ counterparts, promoted the long-term continuation of the traditional Chinese smallholder society.
