摘要
中国城市里的农村移民常被污名化作“低素质人口”,并被置身于城市阶层的最底端。已有研究着重展现城市人如何利用素质话语来为他们自身剥削农村移民的行为正名,并借以维系两者之间的阶层差异,甚少涉及农村移民对城市文化霸权的不服从乃至反对。通过考察浙江义乌一群由农民工成长而来的网商与本地居民的互动,展示了新兴的电商经济让不少农村移民获得了不菲的经济与文化资本,使他们能够在城市社会中立足。他们崛起中的经济地位和“高素质”现代企业家的自我表述在城市的商业世界中重塑了他们自身的身份认同并赢得了本地人的承认。
Rural migrants in Chinese cities are often stigmatized as ‘low- suzhi’ population and marginalized in urban social hierarchy. Existing scholarship has demonstrated how urbanities used suzhi discourse to justify their exploitation of migrants while maintaining class distinctions, and how migrants embraced urban lifestyles to improve their suzhi. Yet, this literature rarely addresses resistance of the ‘inferior’. By looking at the social interactions between migrant entrepreneurs and local residents in a city of southeastern China, this study shows that the emerging e-commerce economy has enabled many rural migrants to acquire financial, social, and cultural capital, which empower them to speak for themselves. Their rising wealth and self-representation as ‘high- suzhi’ entrepreneurs have reshaped their identity in the urban business world.
