Abstract

This paper clarifies the importance of discussing community transformation in Asian societies. Since the definition of “communities” by McIver, this term has contained a meaning of “chamber of secrets.” I criticize this notion of communities shown in Community Studies through a bibliographical and terminological consideration. I also introduce basic differences of concepts of communities between Northeast Asia, Southeast Asia, and Europe as a background. Based on this criticism, it introduces five articles that overcome the previous understanding of communities in Asian societies.

Abstract

Examining the works of classical sociologists, this study demonstrates that the 'socio-cultural network analysis' is a 'process-oriented methodology'. 'Sociocultural network' is a concept originally proposed on the basis of 'thick comparison' studies conducted of two Thai villages; it includes both cultural elements and social actors. Different from the early classical sociologists (Auguste Comte and Herbert Spencer), the later classical sociologists (Georg Simmel, Emile Durkheim, Max Weber, Norbert Elias, Talcott Parsons) utilized the terms 'network' and 'process' and thereby prepared the basis for process-oriented methodology. Among them, only Simmel, Weber and Elias created a direct portal to process-oriented methodology by employing those two terms in a significant and interconnected way and in their philosophical, historical and comparative studies. Thus, the socio-cultural network analysis can be regarded as a descendant of these three sociologists., Historical Social Research Vol. 38, No. 2 (2013): Focus II: Aspects of Process Theories and Process-Oriented Methodologies in Historical and Comparative Sociology.

Abstract

"The 'process' concept is particularly crucial especially for historical and comparative sociology. This paper explains the objective of this HSR Focus; after referring to the term 'process-oriented' in related human and social sciences, it necessitates the examining 'process-oriented' theories in historical and comparative sociology from the viewpoint of 'process-generated data.' Finally the paper indicates the duality of 'process-oriented' theories as a tentative summary of results." (author's abstract)
