Spot tracking research is a common research method in sociology,anthropology and other disciplines.Fei Xiaotong is the most representative Chinese scholar who conducts spot follow-up surveys.From his youth,Fei Xiaotong was determined to study sociology,and in more than 60 years of academic career,he skillfully applied the research methods of spot investigation to sociology and anthropology.Fei Xiaotong’s spot tracking survey is based on local research and the tracking survey of Jiangcun is the most representative one and then formed the remarkable characteristics of Fei Xiaotong’s spot tracking investigation.Today,in the context of the era of building philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics,regaining the academic heritage that Fei Xiaotong left us has important academic implications for promoting the construction of a sociological and anthropological discipline system with Chinese characteristics.
