Abstract:
"medical space" in raditional society,whose principles strictly comply with the ethical principles of the family system,is compatible with social structure,no matter the"medical space in family set",or the "medical space in imperial set".So as long as familial community system of "highiy specilizing" and "functionnally diffusing" is unable to be broken through,it's impossible to give birth to the social public space of "highly generalizing".Either does modern medical service space of "functionnally specificity"which is gestated from "highly generalizing".From traditional society to modern society,"medical space in family" transits to "medical space in units" smoothly.However,market-oriented reform of medical system has a consequence of "system change" overweighting "restructuring".
