摘要
中国早期社会学的一个重要特征是注重实地社会调查。社会调查对于认识中国社会及其问题、提出社会改革方案,以及社会学学科的发展,都起着基础性的作用。聚焦于中国早期社会学家中注重实地调查的代表性人物——李景汉,展现他面对厚重的历史传统和现实政治经济动荡,试图以社会调查这个“新工具”,为中国的社会改造和现代化“开路”的激情与决心,为社会调查本土化所付出的艰辛努力和取得的成绩;分析李景汉对于调查技术背后的人文环境、调查与社会改造以及救国救民之间的关系等问题的思考;对其工作的贡献、意义,以及在调查技术和伦理方面的某些局限性进行讨论。
What characterized the early development of sociology in modern China was its emphasis on the firsthand research of Chinese society.Among those who carried out works of this kind,LI Jinghan′s contributions were indeed distinguished.In his writings,he articulated the significant role that the science-based social research would play for the modernization of China.While he pioneered to conduct social survey among the urban poor and peasant population,he and his collaborators made tremendous efforts to address the resistance from his subjects due to the given cultural and political traditions.LI can be considered very fortunate to have been able to participate in the renowned rural reconstruction experiment in the Ding County in northern China,where he and his teammates left important legacies in the application of science to social reform and social progress in China at that time.The paper also critically assesses the methodological limitations of his works,e.g.his overemphasis on scientific idealism,sampling issues,and research ethics.
