宏观社会学与微观社会学之关系探析

Understanding the relationship between macro-sociology and micro-sociology

微观社会学主要研究社会行为 ,宏观社会学主要研究社会结构。微观社会学和宏观社会学在研究内容、研究视角、研究假设、研究方法、研究成果等方面存在巨大的差异。社会规则是微观社会行为与宏观社会结构的契合点。社会规则的变迁经历新创、修正和稳定三个阶段。微观社会行为推动社会规则的变化 ,并经过一段时间的积累导致宏观社会的变迁。

Micro-sociology deals with social behaviors, while macro-sociology, social structures. There are five differences between the two pursuits: object, perspective, hypothesis, method, and form of research achievement. Social norm is a joint connecting micro-sociology and macro-sociology. The changes of social norms undergo three phases: creation, modification, and stabilization. Micro social behaviors cause the change of social norm, and induce the change of macro social structure through a period of accumulation.
