Modern Formation of Chinese-Style Community Studies:From Cultural Self-Consciousness to Academic Self-Consciousness
In his later years,Mr.Fei Hsiao-tung emphasized the"cultural self-consciousness"of the discipline,and actually can be seen as the repositioning of the localization process,social functions and comparative civilization values within Chinese sociology.This paper connects this issue with"Chinese-style community studies"and presents a new reflection on the historical process of Chinese sociology.The emergence of Chinese community studies essentially stems from Wu Wen-tsao and his School members’dedication to localizing western modern sociology and anthropology,fostering the self-consciousness of Chinese culture subjects.Based on the"society"category,this School incorporated the strengths of Western sociological thought schools,and localized the concept of"Community"and used it as a framework for disciplinary organization.Through the local integration of theoretical context in community sociology,they not only extended space perspective of the Culture School,but also infused the Location School with a sense of history,thus forming the the intrinsic theoretical consciousness of Chinese community studies.As the fieldwork deepened,Mr.Fei developed a typological framework for community analysis and gradually constructed a comparative civilization paradigm centered on"Earthbound China".
