Earlier studies on China’s one-child family policy have emphasized the suffering of girls and women excessively, referring to it as the dark side of the coin. However, this article presents an alternative perspective on the policy through critical analyses of China’s official documents, contemporary media reports, and other literature. By presenting the historical flow and social development of the policy, it concludes by identifying five major conflicts that have ensued as a result of the policy. The first is between the protection of women’s rights by law and discrimination against women by law. The second is between the old idea of son preference and the new idea of no preference. The third is between the good upbringing of only children and their being spoilt. The fourth conflict is between the idea that reproduction endangers women’s health and reproduction improves their health. The final one is between good career prospects for women and bad ones.
不少以往有關中國大陸「一孩政策」的研究，都過份強調婦女在此政策實施後所遭受的痛苦，正所謂事情的黑暗一面。然而，本文嘗試透過當年及現今的大陸官方文獻、傳媒的報道及相關學者的研究，進行批判性的分析並提出一個反差的看法。除了展現此政策的歷史進程及社會變遷外，結論還帶出它所隱藏著的五種緊張狀態，是值得我們注意的。第一，此政策能否保障抑或歧視婦女本身的合法權益？第二，此政策能否使父母更偏愛兒子抑或使其對子女同樣痛愛？第三，獨生子女在此政策實施後是否得到良好的教育抑或被溺愛？第四，此政策能否改善抑或危害婦女的生育健康？最後，此政策為婦女帶來良好的抑或不良的就業前景？
