From Survival Logic to Development Logic—A Study of Family Division in Daxi Village in Eastern Tibet
Daxi Village in eastern Tibet has experienced an unusual growth in family division since 2010.The family division can be roughly divided into three types:institutional family division,willingness-based family division and policy-based family division.Among them,institutional family division is the main mechanism of family reproduction in traditional Tibetan society,while willingness-based family divi-sion and policy-based family division appear under the stimulation of the household-based assistance mechanism.This directly leads to a sharp increase in the growth in the cases of family division.In family division,the traditional Tibetan houses were transformed into households with household registration man-agement.The development logic is replacing survival logic,becoming the underlying mechanism for the reproduction of rural families in eastern Tibet.The developmental family-oriented society with Tibetan cul-tural characteristics has become an important feature of local modernization.
