老龄化背景下新家庭主义在社交媒体中的建构研究

A Study on the Construction of Neo-Familism in Social Media Amidst the Backdrop of Aging Population

摘要: 在人口老龄化与数字技术深度交融的时代背景下，家庭结构、代际关系以及传统制度正经历着深刻重构。本文以“新家庭主义”为理论视角，系统揭示在社交媒体下的家庭呈现与实践，将“新家庭主义”的讨论延伸至老龄化研究领域，探讨社交媒体如何通过仪式呈现与身份展演，成为当代家庭意义再生产的关键场域。研究认为，社交媒体上的家庭实践呈现出三重特征：日常生活的仪式化、代际关系的展演化、私人记忆的公共化。其中，老年人通过数字展演寻求情感归属与身份认同，如何在归属与自主之间找到平衡，是新家庭主义面临的重大挑战。本研究为理解数字时代的新家庭主义提供了一定的理论视角。

Abstract: Against the backdrop of an era characterized by the deep integration of population aging and digital technology, family structures, intergenerational relationships, and traditional institutions are undergoing profound reconstruction. Adopting “Neo-Familism” as its theoretical perspective, this paper employs case study analysis and literature review to systematically reveal family presentations and practices on social media. It extends the discussion of “Neo-Familism” into the field of aging research, exploring how social media, through ritual presentation and identity performance, has become a key arena for the reproduction of contemporary family meaning. The study posits that family practices on social media exhibit three distinct characteristics: the ritualization of daily life, the performativization of intergenerational relationships, and the publication of private memory. Within this context, elderly individuals seek emotional belonging and identity through digital performance. Finding a balance between belonging and autonomy constitutes a significant challenge for Neo-Familism. This research offers a theoretical perspective for understanding Neo-Familism in the digital age.
