This book provides a cutting edge analysis of the rapid rise of
China's network society and reviews recent key developments within
China's internet economy, notably the concepts of "Lucky Money" and
E-Business on Wechat, and Crowd-Funding Platforms. It focuses on
drawing out the sociological impact of these economic developments,
examining among others the bearing of the decentralization of
e-business in rural areas. It offers a vital sociological
perspective on the development of China's internet society and how
it affects social and professional relations, examining the shift
from the traditional Red Envelope Giving Culture to Digital Red
Envelope, micro charity 2.0 as well as the Rise of Internet Crowd
Funding in China. Combining an up to date analysis of the current
state of play of China's internet society with expertise in the
rapidly changing landscape of China's social media, this book
provides key insights into how technology impacts on the
communication and movement of population in China, in both social
and economic spheres.
This book reexamines Chinese sociology's point of departure and
boundaries of western sociology from a new academic perspective,
and offers a new definition of the essence and mission of
sociology, drawing and critically reflecting on the ideological and
theoretical theories of the classic sociologists. On this basis, it
makes a careful study of the origin of Confucian classics and
western sources of Chinese sociology and analyses the origin and
evolution of Chinese sociology at the intersection of Chinese and
western academic history. Further, it provides a deep and thorough
discussion of the social theories of Chinese sociology pioneers and
founders (such as Fu Yan, Youwei Kang, and Qichao Liang) and
comments on Shuming Liang's sociological theory, which emphasizes
the Chinese culture and tradition as well as the particularity of
the Chinese social structure. In addition, it also offers an
in-depth analysis of Xiaotong Fei's advocacy of the idea of
expanding the traditional boundaries of sociology in his later
years. With regard to promoting the development of a new Chinese
sociology, the book is particularly important in terms of expanding
academic research and promoting discipline construction.
