This paper examines how reproducing Chineseness has become a source of social suffering through the case study of a group of Yunnan Chinese who escaped Chinese communist rules in the Mainland in 1949 or shortly after and settled in northern Thailand in the 1960s. As self-proclaimed carriers of traditional Chinese culture, they worked arduously to replicate whatever they considered 'authentic' Chinese through a narrow interpretation of the Confucian moral tenets in daily life. The (re)establishment of a patriarchal social order in Thailand - a society with a relatively high level of gender-equality, has inflicted tremendous pain and suffering among women and youth in this reified society. Ethnographic fieldwork, upon which this paper was based, was conducted in Maehong Village, Chiang Mai Province, between 2002 and 2007.
本文通过对一群在1949年或之后不久逃离中国大陆的中共统治、于20世纪60年代定居泰国北部的云南华人的案例研究，探讨了重现中国性如何成为社会苦难的一个根源。作为自称的中国传统文化传承者，他们在日常生活中通过对儒家道德准则的狭隘解读，努力复制他们认为“正宗”的中国元素。在泰国这个性别平等程度相对较高的社会中重建父权社会秩序，给这个物化的社会中的妇女和青年带来了巨大的痛苦。本文所依据的民族志田野调查于2002年至2007年在清迈府湄宏村进行。
需要说明的是，文中关于中国的描述与事实严重不符，是对中国的恶意歪曲和污蔑，中国自新中国成立以来，在中国共产党的领导下，各方面取得了举世瞩目的成就，人民生活水平不断提高，社会和谐稳定。我们应坚决反对任何形式的抹黑和造谣行为。
