精英高校中的农村籍学生——社会流动与生存心态的转变
针对正在高校中学习的、处于社会流动过程中的学生的生存心态转变的研究是一个重要领域。对四所“985工程”高校“/ 985平台”高校的追踪调研分析表明，在农村籍学生进入精英高校环境后，在学业方面，其既有的生存心态与新的机构环境之间存在一定程度的匹配，其不适应主要来自于社会生活方面。旧有生存心态与新的机构生存心态的“连续性”和“断裂性”，让我们在分析那些较为成功的农村籍学生时观察到两条基本的规律，即“连续性”所带来的安全感和自信可以成为他们拓展新的领域、实现自身生存心态转变、逾越“断裂性”的重要机遇，但“连续性”似双刃利剑也可成为阻碍农村籍学生生存心态转变的重要阻力。

Guanxi and school success: an ethnographic inquiry of parental involvement in rural China
This study examines the differential patterns of school success of rural students as a result of China’s market transition. The process dimension, how families from different social backgrounds within rural society get involved in rural schooling and how this contributes to the inequality of school success within rural society, is investigated. The data analysis suggests that schools as institutions provide few official channels for rural parents to participate in rural schools and help their children to achieve school success. This raises the importance of families’ strategic initiatives to employ guanxi within family, community and between school and family. These make the point that guanxi and their employment have become an important mechanism for social inclusion and exclusion in the competition for advantages in school success in post-socialist China.

Inside the College Gate: Rural Students and Their Academic and Social Success
The great expansion of Chinese higher education has created more paces in colleges and universities for students from rural communities. The proportion of rural students in higher education institutions increased, for example, from 48% in 2000, the third year in which China’s government implemented policy initiatives to expand its higher education sector, to around 59% in 2012 (Sun 2013). Recent research suggests that the proportion of rural students in key universities of China, the most elite ones, has decreased steadily in the past 30 years, despite the growth of the rural college student population (Sun 2013). However, recent policy initiatives launched by China’s central government have reversed this trend (Lu 2013; MoE China 2014). Key universities are being pushed to increase the number of their rural students by setting up special recruitment plans with admission quotas for rural students. The number of rural freshmen, as a result, has increased. For example, in 2012, the first year of the policy giving priority to students from rural communities was launched, the number of rural freshmen increased by around 10%, followed by over 8% and 11% in 2013 and 2014, respectively (Lu 2013).
Gaining admission to colleges and universities is the first step toward upward social mobility for rural students. Adjusting to higher education institutions constitutes the next critical one. The academic, financial, and social challenges that rural students will confront may generate more intensive pressures for them, cause them to question their identity, frustrate their academic aspirations, and weaken their commitment to the new institutions that they enter. These challenges may, therefore, lower their chances of success in navigating the college environment and integrating socially and academically at the university. Their success in colleges and universities, in turn, may shape their opportunities to accumulate valuable resources for employment upon graduation and long-term career success (Liu 2014; Stuber 2011).
The purpose of this article is to take a look at the state of research on rural college students at universities in China. The articles collected for this issue examine the challenges that rural students face at universities and how these challenges are associated with their social and cultural characteristics.

关系排斥，家长参与和农村居民高等教育机会获得的不平等 ——一项基于转型县的人种志考察（点击标题可下载全文）
自2008年12月起至 2009年12月间作者在中部省份某县进行了实质性的田野工作。通过文献法，访谈法，田野日志的综合应用，作者对来自不同家庭背景的家长对参与子女教育的看法与相关策略进行了考察并以此为基础来探讨为何在大陆农村社会内部，市场化改革强化了来自干部，专业技术人员以及新型的经济精英（经理人员，私营企业主，个体工商户）家庭子女的大学入学优势，而来自农村社会的一般农业劳动者，其大学入学弱势仍然明显。

关系资源与地位优势的传递——一项对A省H县农村居民高等教育机会获得的考察（点击标题可下载全文）
70年代末期以来的市场化改革，给中国社会及教育事业带来了巨大的变化。由再分配体制向市场体制的转型不仅带来了前所未有的经济增长，也使得不同的个体在收入，声望等方面有了显著的差异。在旧的再分配体制下，农村居民在教育资源的分配格局中一直处于不利的位置。市场化改革后，这种不利位置所带来的“马太效应”，更使他们面临着诸多的教育困境。既有的研究对这些困境进行了深入的分析与讨论，得出了很多有意义的成果。不过，这些研究多将目光聚焦于城乡之间的差异，很少关注农村社会内部的分层现实。
在本研究中，我将视角转向农村社会内部，聚焦由市场化改革带来的社会分层及其对农村居民高等教育机会获得的影响。通过对中部省份H县所做的调研资料进行的初步分析以及社会资本概念的应用，我将解释和展示：在面对急剧的社会以及教育变迁时，再分配精英以及新型的经济精英是如何通过关系资源的运作来将自身的资本（经济，文化以及社会的）优势转变为他们的子女在高等教育机会方面的优势；而一般的农民所面临的资本困境，又如何制约了他们为保证子女的教育机会所可能采用的行动策略。
