Features: Yixu Township in Fujian is a very typical clan village. Among its nearly 10,000 residents, 98.4% are members of the Huang clan, and the clan system is highly developed. This book is a monograph in anthropology written by a Chinese anthropologist who conducted participant observation research on Chinese Han families and clans. It is based on in-depth and comprehensive field research, with accurate and detailed descriptions. At the same time, the narrative reflects a clear influence of functionalism, while also extensively citing Chinese classics, which are integrated smoothly, demonstrating the profound expertise of the older generation of scholars.
