本文对过去二十年左右中国城市变化和连续性的七个研究领域的社会学观点和研究进行了综合回顾。我们首先根据国家市场辩论及其延伸对有关分层和不平等的社会学文献进行评估。然后我们评估社交网络作为一种可以影响社会分层和社会变革的弹性资源的研究。接下来，我们研究有关移民和移民劳工的跨学科研究，强调其社会学见解。接下来是对住房研究的批判性审视，这些研究揭示了中国城市的新住宅景观。然后，我们介绍了我们对城市消费的学术贡献，然后介绍和评估了以单位和社区为重点的改变城市治理的研究。我们最终的审查重点是针对不同形式的动员和抵抗的关键工作，以应对不平衡的改革和市场转型带来的紧张和冲突。在对丰富多样的文献进行了广泛而选择性的回顾之后，我们对其主导主题、学科权重和多样化方法进行了总体评估。最后，我们提倡更多的理论化、比较和整合，作为推进中国城市社会学和跨学科研究的方式。
This article provides an integrated review of sociological perspectives and research on seven areas of inquiry regarding change and continuity in urban China over the past two decades or so. We begin with an assessment of the sociological literature on stratification and inequality in light of the state-market debate and its extensions. Then we evaluate the research on social networks as a resilient resource that can influence social stratification and social change. Next we examine the more interdisciplinary research on migration and migrant labor, highlighting its sociological insights. This is followed by a critical look at housing studies that have revealed a new residential landscape in the Chinese city. Then we present our take on the scholarly contributions to urban consumption, followed by a presentation and appraisal of studies of changing urban governance that have focused on the danwei and community. Our final review focus is the critical work on different forms of mobilization and resistance in response to tensions and conflicts from uneven reform and market transition. Following this extended albeit selective review of the rich and diverse literatures, we offer an overall assessment of their dominant themes, disciplinary weights, and diverse approaches. Finally, we advocate for more theorization, comparison, and integration as ways of advancing both sociological and interdisciplinary research on urban China.
