This book offers a biographical, intellectual and academic history of sociology in the late Qing and Republic of China period. The 46 sociologists featured in this volume are chosen from the pantheon of notable scholars who labored in this burgeoning field. Each of the 46 chapters is devoted to introducing one sociologist. Every chapter begins with a short biography that sheds light on how one sociologist became the scholar they were and earned their place in not only sociology, but also, for some of them, other fields in the social sciences and the humanities. This is followed by a review and analysis of the representative works by this sociologist, and how those laid the foundation for and contributed to the early development of a particular field of research in sociology as we know it today. The book weaves together a history of this academic discipline in China over those turbulent decades that organically combines personal details, methodological development, institutional changes and also larger social, economic and intellectual trends.

Within a movement towards the circulation and globalisation of knowledge, new centres and new peripheries form and new hierarchies appear - more or less discretely - producing competition and rivalry in the development of “new” knowledge. Centres of gravity in social sciences have been displaced towards Asia, especially China. We have entered a period of de-westernization of knowledge and co-production of transnational knowledge. This is a scientific revolution in the social sciences which imposes detours, displacements, reversals. It means a turning point in the history of social sciences. From the Chinese experience in sociology the author is opening a Post-Western Space where after Post-Colonial Studies, she is speaking about the emergence of a Post-Western Sociology.

This book is rooted in an epistemological approach to sociology in which the boundaries between Western and non-Western sociologies are acknowledged and built on. It argues that knowledge is organised in conceptual spaces linked to paradigms and programmes which in turn are linked to ethnocentred knowledge processes; that until recently Western approaches, including Post-Colonial, French Social Science and American approaches, have dominated non-Western theories; and that Western theories have sometimes seemed incapable of explaining phenomena produced in other societies. It goes on to argue that the blurring of boundaries between Western and non-Western sociologies is very important; and that such a Post-Western approach will mean co-production and co-construction of common knowledge, the recognition of ignored or forgotten scientific cultures and a "global change" in sociology which imposes theoretical and methodological detours, displacements, reversals and conversions. The book brings together a wide range of Western and Chinese sociologists who explore the consequences of this new approach in relation to many different issues and aspects of sociology.

Within this text, the contributors provide a historical perspective on the development of anthropology and sociology since their introduction to Chinese thought and education in the early twentieth century, with an emphasis on the 1930s and 1980s. The authors offer different windows on theoretical and research agendas of anthropologists and sociologists of the PRC and Taiwan, shaped as much by their political context as by disciplinary training. In examining the careers of several individual scholars, they also make note not only of their creative contributions, but also of the resonance of their intellectual concerns with contemporary issues in sociology and anthropology (culturalism, frontiers, women). Finally, the volume is organized loosely around the problem of how to translate these disciplines into a Chinese context(s), the issues of "indigenization" (bentuhua) or "making Chinese" (Zhongguohua), which have haunted the two disciplines since their establishment in the 1930s because of the contradictory expectations that they generate. This is where the case of China resonates with similar concerns in other societies where the disciplines were imported from abroad as products of a Euro/American capitalist modernity, conflicting with aspirations to create their own localized alternative modernities.

What Has Been Lost in Contemporary China? Volume 1 in the 'Transcultural Experiences Seen through "Three Eyes"' book series Product details Paperback: 144 pages Publisher: Global China Press (1 November 2015) Language: Chinese ISBN: 978-1-910334-16-4 Product Dimensions: 17 x 24 cm About the author Chen Lixing is Professor of Sociology at Kwansei Gakuin University in Japan. She was the first Chinese citizen to obtain a PhD in sociology in Japan. After working as a researcher at the United Nations Regional Development Centre (UNCRD), she returned to academia and was the first Chinese national to become a professor of sociology in Japan. In addition to serving as president of the Japan-China Sociological Society (JCSS), she has led many major research projects, for example 'Comparative Studies on the New Migrants from BRIC countries in America, Australia, Japan and the UK' and published more than 40 articles and nine books in Japanese, English and Chinese. About the book What Has Been Lost in Contemporary China? (in Chinese) is the first book in the 'Transcultural Experiences Seen through "Three Eyes"' book series. It focuses on contemporary China since the early 20th century. After a half century of humiliation by Western powers, followed by much soul-searching and spiritual cleansing during the socialist revolution and the impact of the globalization of the market economy over the past 30 years, China has achieved its goal of modernization and entered the ranks of the great powers in the G2. But in the process its culture has suffered. In today's China, social and moral decay, excessive consumption and materialism are everywhere. In this book, the author, contemplating China from a sociologist's perspective and drawing on her own personal experiences of living through different periods of the socialist China and its aftermath, reflects on which elements of Chinese traditional culture have been lost along the way. What kinds of social changes have happened in China since it realized its goal of modernization? What are the operating mechanisms of China's social system? What kind of value system is needed to maintain contemporary China's social system? About the book series The 'Transcultural Experiences Seen through "Three Eyes"' book series is published by Global Chinese Press (GCP) from 2015. The book series is edited jointly by Lixing Chen and Xiangqun Chang. Chen is Professor of Sociology at Kwansei Gakuin University in Japan. Chang is Director of CCPN Global, Honorary Professor at University College London. Over the past 500 years, the contacts and exchanges between China and the West have become increasingly frequent and intensive, but the depth of mutual understanding is still subject to certain limitations, arising from differences in history, culture and ideology and resulting in misunderstandings and even prejudices on both sides. The rapid development of China after the implementation of reform and the policy of opening up to the world nearly four decades ago have brought it worldwide attention, as well as the expectation that China will take its share of responsibilities and obligations in all areas of international affairs. In the past few decades, global society has undergone modernization, post-modernization, modernity, post-modernity, multi-modernity, globalization and post-globalization. We believe that the concept of transculturality, which is related to but distinct from cross-, inter- and multi-culturality, can become mainstream discourse in the near future. Such an approach could help us to shed our prejudices and to re-examine each other objectively and rationally. (What has lost in Contemporary China?)

This book presents a collection of essays of how the city-state of Singapore's societal dynamics have evolved from the time of its birth as a nation in 1965 to the present. Key areas of Singapore society are explored, contributing to the understanding of the social organisation of the city. This study reveals a shift from the modernisation studies in the 1970s to a more political-economic turn, as a consequence of the influence of dependency and world systems theories. Topics covered include: urban studies, family, education, medical care, class and social stratification, work, language, ethnic groups, religion and crime and deviance.
