The Introduction for the Forum “The Biology,Psychology, and Economics of Social Reproduction: Health, Wealth, and Happiness in the Modern Chinese Family”

摘要：

These essays grow out of a panel organized by Nicole Richardson for the 2011 Association for Asian Studies annual meetings in Honolulu for which I served as commentator.This was a remarkably coherent panel,and the three articles here carefully unpack ideas about social reproduction in the family from the final decade of the Qing dynasty through the middle 1930s.These studies of conceptions of pregnancy,childrearing,and wedding ceremonies advance our understanding of how intellectuals re-conceptualized family management by combining traditional expectations with newer,often imported, scientific concepts and practices.
