以苏州中观区域社会为个案的研究表明,在影响地方经济社会发展的历史规定性中,区域物质和社区特色是至关重要的两个方面。从经济社会结构、人文景观和文化心理要素等侧面反映出的乡土特质,从整体上体现为人类与自然关系的高度协调。从产业结构、空间格局和社会生活诸侧面显现的社区特色,在更深层的意义上,就是文化资源的稀缺性。反观近代以来苏州社会的历史轨迹,不难发现历史规定性无形而深刻的影响力,对于未来区域经济社会的发展样式同样发人深省。 A case study of Suzhou Zhongguan regional society shows that regional material and community characteristics are two crucial aspects in the historical regulations that affect local economic and social development. The local characteristics, which are reflected from the aspects of economic and social structure, cultural landscape and elements of cultural psychology, are generally reflected as a high degree of coordination between mankind and nature. From the industrial structure, spatial pattern and social aspects of all aspects of social life appears in the deeper sense, is the scarcity of cultural resources. On the other hand, the historical track of Suzhou society since modern times is not difficult to find the invisible and profound influence of historical regulations. It is also a profound thought for the future development of regional economy and society.
