明清之际是贵州社会发生变革的重要时期。这一时期,贵州民族地区开始并在总体上逐步完成了由封建领主制向封建地主制的社会转型。经济上先进生产技术的引进及商品经济的渗透和冲击,政治上从土司缺席的崩溃到流官体制的确立的“改土归流”,是促成这一社会变革得以实现的重要因素。 The occasion of the Ming and Qing Dynasties is an important period of social change in Guizhou. During this period, Guizhou ethnic areas started and gradually completed the social transition from feudal lord to feudal lord. The introduction of economically advanced production technology and the infiltration and impact of commodity economy, the political “democratization” of the abolition of the chieftain and the establishment of the abusive regime are the major factors that have contributed to the realization of this social transformation.
