<br/><br/> How has Chinese sociology developed since its reconstruction in 1979? This essay reviews the development of sociology in China over the past 45 years from three perspectives: institutional structure, intellectual construct, and cultural community. It examines the institutional arrangement, the subfields with Chinese characteristics, and the shared experiences and academic styles of Chinese sociologists who belong to the zhiqing generation. Finally, by comparing two pairs of cases from the perspective of the sociology of knowledge, it discusses a paradox of externalism and then calls for the return of internalism.-Reproduced<br/><br/>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/02685809251325016
