社会学研究 2003 年第 5 期 社会经济地位与网络资源 胡 　　　荣 　　Abstract :Based on the 1999 survey data in Xiamen , this paper takes the lead in Chinese literature to explore the relationship between social economic status and social network resources comprehensively . The research finds that sex , age , income , education , and household registration status are the main variables influencing individual ’s social network resource , while the Party membership , ownership of labor by the work unit ( danwei suoy ouz hi) , and government j urisdiction ( z henf u z huguan bumen) have no statistical significant influence on social resources. The author argues that the findings reflect characteristics of Chinese society in the transition period . On the one hand , more and more importance is attached to economic factor and human capital such as education in the accumulation process of social resources , while factors , such as political background ( z hengz hi mianmu) , ownership of labor by the work unit , and government j urisdiction are fading away , which indicates the obvious trend of marketization in our society . On the other hand , household registration status is the important symbol of status and still plays an important role in accumulation of one ’s social resources , which shows that the imprint of the duality of our society from planed economy has not disappeared . 社会网络理论是在对传统社会结构理论的补充和修正的基础上提出的。社会网络理论强调社会关 系的重要性 ,但没有否定社会地位的作用 。尽管西方一些学者在他们的研究中都或多或少地谈到社会 经济地位对网络资源的影响 ,但多年来西方和中国的一些研究都把重点放在弱关系与强关系在人们求 职过程中的作用 ,较少研究社会经济地位如何影响一个人的关系资源 。本文依据 1999 年在厦门市进行 的就业调查资料 ,试图较为全面地以诸如性别 、年龄 、收入 、单位所有制 、单位主管部门、文化程度 、个人 政治面 目等个人的社会经济地位标志作为自变量进行分析 ,看这些因素是如何影响个人的网络资源的。 一 、理论背
