在中国传统社会中,农民发挥了重要的作用。农民本身是个复杂的概念,包含着很多阶层,自耕农阶层是农民的重要组成部分。唐宋时期,自耕农民与平民地主一样,都属于乡村主户,都是直接向国家交纳赋税的编户齐民,在政治地位和权利上是一样的。建国以来对唐宋时期自耕农的研究,主要包括五个方面的内容,取得了丰富的成果,但也存在着一些不足。 In traditional Chinese society, peasants played an important role. Farmers themselves are complex concepts, with many strata involved. Farmers themselves are an important part of the peasantry. During the Tang and Song dynasties, self-employed peasants, like ordinary landlords, belonged to the main village households, and all were directly registered residents of the state paying taxes. They were the same in political status and rights. Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the study on the self-employed farmers in the Tang and Song Dynasties has mainly included five aspects and achieved rich results, but there are also some shortcomings.
