【内容提要】知识社会学在知识与(社会)存在的关系问题上进行了深入分析,但一直以来却鲜有关注动态的社会进程与知识的跨国接受间联系的研究。通过分析英格尔斯与福柯在重建以来的中国社会学知识生产中的接受过程与中国式现代化进程间的共变趋势,可以发现:首先,从社会学家影响力变迁的角度看,重建伊始名噪一时的英格尔斯的影响力在逐渐下降,而早期寂寂无名的福柯的被提及频率却在逐渐上升。其次,从社会进程的角度看,对现代化的渴慕与想象随社会转型或改革的深入而让位于对真实社会问题的回应。最后,上述社会进程与理论家的接受过程存在着格兰杰因果关系,并且这种影响具有长期持续的特征。这一双动态研究框架为理解现代化如何塑造知识生产和理论传播提供了新的视角。

Social Processes and Knowledge Reception in a Dual-Dynamic Framework:The Reception History of Inkeles and Foucault in the Rebuilding of Chinese Sociology
Abstract: The sociology of knowledge undertakes a systematic examination of the relationship between knowledge and social existence, yet it has rarely explored the ways in which evolving social processes shape the transnational reception of knowledge. By analyzing how Inkeles and Foucault have been received in the knowledge production of Chinese sociology since its reconstruction, alongside the concurrent evolution of China’s modernization, three findings emerge. First, in terms of shifting scholarly influence, Inkeles, once prominent at the outset of sociology’s revival, has seen a gradual decline in visibility. At the same time, references to Foucault, initially little-known, have steadily increased. Second, from a societal perspective, the early fascination with and vision for modernization gave way to a focus on real-world challenges as social reforms and transformations deepened. Finally, a Granger causality analysis suggests that these social processes and the reception of theoretical ideas exert a sustained and long-term impact on each other. This dual-dynamic framework provides a new perspective for understanding how modernization shapes knowledge production and the circulation of theoretical paradigms.
