From 1979 to 1991, Modern China, a landmark journal of Chinese studies, published a large number of articles in the field of peasant studies. These articles are of two types: studies of peasants in premodern China, which focus on the rural economy, politics, and ideology; and studies on the history of “peasant studies” itself, which focus on the problems, paradigms and directions of the field. Taken together, all these articles reveal the influence of three major approaches to history: the longue durée perspective of the French Annales school, the “bottom-up” approach to lived experience of the British new social history movement, and the time, space, and demography frame of reference of G. William Skinner.
20世纪中后期西方新兴的农民学学科与区域研究具有内在的关联。在中美学术交流正常化时期,《近代中国》(1979–1991年) 作为中国学研究的标志性刊物,集中刊发了大量农民学领域的学术成果。这些成果可分为两类: 其一是农民问题研究,从乡村经济、政治与思想等方面探讨中国前现代社会时期农民的具体问题;其二是农民学学术史研究,讨论农民学研究本身面临的问题、范式与方向。《近代中国》的农民学研究延续了法国年鉴学派的“长时段”视域和社会史学派“自下而上”的材料意识,以及“施坚雅模式”区域细分的方法,这些学术成果展现了西方农民学发展历程以及美国的中国史研究思路与方法。
