民族志作为人类学专属的研究方法,其特殊性的根本在于对整体观的追求。在从乡村到城市的研究语境转换中,整体观的延续和拓展是都市民族志范式构建的方法论基础。基于在都市民族志历史实践中形成的系统整体观、类型整体观和网络整体观,人类学学者将各种各样的都市研究主题纳入民族志关注的视野中,保证了都市民族志一直没有偏离人类学的发展轨迹,并构建了自已在研究方法上相对于其他学科的特殊性。 Ethnography as an anthropological exclusive research method, its particularity lies in the pursuit of holistic view. In the context of the research context from village to city, the continuation and expansion of the holistic concept is the methodological basis for the construction of the paradigm of urban ethnography. Based on the systematic holistic view, the holistic view of the whole type and the holistic view of the network formed in the historical practice of urban ethnography, anthropologists bring various topics of urban research into the ethical concern and ensure that urban ethnography has not deviated Anthropology and development path, and build their own research methods in relation to the particularities of other disciplines.
