Origin and Expansion of Chinese Sociology

Abstract

Liang Qichao is the Chinese representative who shifted research focus from ancient times to modern times in Chinese academic history, and whose academic thought launched a new era in modern Chinese academics. Liang Qichao is also a milestone in the history of Chinese sociology. He not only summarized the essentials of ancient Chinese social thoughts, but also absorbed the essence of both Western and Chinese sociological thoughts elaborated by Yan Fu and Kang Youwei.
