随着祖国科学的春天的来临,社会学也回到了百花盛开的社会主义学术园地。从一九五二年到一九七九年这门学科停顿了近三十年,人们对它都已陌生,希望了解一些社会学的情况。但是这多年来它是一个禁区,过去的早已不能适应社会主义的需要,新近的以及外国的也无人问津,都接不上头了。让我们就借一部有名的著作——《古代社会》来谈谈,通过它所提供的社会学的材料、观点、方法等等,来逐步了解这门学科吧。 With the advent of science in the motherland, sociology has returned to the flourishing socialist academic field. From 1952 to 1979, the discipline stopped for nearly thirty years and people were already unfamiliar with it and wished to know some sociology. However, it has been a forbidden zone for many years. In the past, it has long been unable to meet the needs of socialism. Neither the present nor the foreign countries are getting helplessly. Let us take a well-known book - “Ancient Society” to talk about it, through its sociology materials, ideas, methods, etc., to gradually understand this subject.
