The Accumulation and Amnesia in Chinese Sociology from 1980 to 2022
How does knowledge change?What affects it?Taking Chinese sociology since its rehabilitation and rebuilding as a case,we find that the change in knowledge from 1980 to 2022 displayed fan-shaped fluctuations in form:Chinese sociology went through the cycle of booms and busts under the law of small numbers,and was directly influenced by the process of state building;substantively,the change in knowledge was characterized by accumulation in sub-fields but amnesia in the discipline as a whole,and such a pattern can be seen in both the generational successions of Chinese sociologists and the fragmentation of the discipline.
