福建与台湾的行郊 (或称郊行 )商人 ,是清代地方商帮的一个特殊组织名称 ,未曾见于中国的其他地区。由于文献资料的欠缺 ,学者们对此论述者甚少。本文根据新发现的族谱资料 ,就清代泉州黄氏郊商的经营发展历程及其乡族特征作一探索。通过分析黄氏郊商的谱系记录 ,发现所谓的族商 ,并不是在家族内普遍分布的。他们以最近亲的血缘关系为核心 ,逐步扩大到本家族、本宗族以及姑表亲戚 ,进而再向以地缘为纽带的同村、同乡、同县以及同府、同省的关系发展。郊商以其比较雄厚的经济实力 ,积极参与地方社会和乡族组织的各种事业 ,使得他们同士绅阶层一道 ,成为清代维护稳定甚而控制民间基层社会和乡族组织的两个主要力量。 The peasant commuters in the suburbs of Fujian and Taiwan, a special organization name for local business gangs in the Qing Dynasty, were never found in other parts of China. Due to the lack of literature, scholars have little to say about this. Based on the newly discovered genealogical data, this paper explores the business development process of Huang’s suburban merchants in Qing Dynasty and their ethnic characteristics. By analyzing pedigree records of Huang’s suburbs, it was found that the so-called ethnic group was not widely distributed within the family. With the kinship of their closest relatives as their core, they gradually expanded to their own clan, their clan, and their relatives, and further developed their relations with the same village, fellow countrymen, same counties, and Tongfu and Tongan provinces geographically linked. With its comparatively strong economic power, the suburban businessmen actively participated in various undertakings of local communities and local ethnic groups and enabled them, together with the gentry class, to become the two major forces in the Qing Dynasty to maintain stability and even control grassroots social organizations and ethnic organizations.
