The paper draws on ethnographic study and goes beyond dualistic understanding of work and play to investigate the complex world of social interactions among preschoolers. While adults viewed work as an educational process through which children’s personalities are shaped in a desired way, the children perceived work as a means of social interactions. Building on the theoretical framework of sociality and intersubjectivity, the paper suggests that work, play and learning can represent complementary aspects of human existence and living.

从教育工作到陪伴：将成人和儿童对幼儿工作和娱乐的观点并列

本文利用人种学研究方法，超越了对工作和娱乐的二元理解，从而研究了学龄前儿童之间社交互动的复杂世界。成人将工作视为一种教育过程，通过这种过程以期望的方式塑造孩子的个性，而孩子则将工作视为社交互动的一种手段。在社会性和主体间性的理论框架的基础上，本文提出工作，娱乐和学习可以代表人类生存和生活的互补方面。
