言心哲的社会学与社会工作研究

言心哲一生从事农村社会学和社会工作专业教学与研究工作,在中国社会学与社会工作历史上均占据重要位置,是一定程度上被学界忽视的一位社会学家。言心哲的社会学研究包括社会调查以及农村社会学两个部分,主要治学特点是专业功底扎实,注重对本土具体情境的适用以及以调查服务社会的价值情怀。其社会工作研究概括起来有四个特质:第一,反映了当时中国的社会历史背景和对社会工作参与社会建设的客观需求;第二,注重社会工作学科的系统性和专业性;第三,重点关注了社会工作参与当时社会建设的本土化努力;第四,其研究体现了当时中西方最新研究成果,更适合与当代形成比较研究。重新梳理言心哲等老一辈社会学与社会工作学者的学术研究,在学术和学科建设方面具有重要的价值。
