    In Advanced Introduction to Digital Society, the latest publication by Manuel Castells, the pioneering theorist of network society future develops his theory in the digital age and clarify the relationship between network society and digital society: the digital society is the socio?technological form that underlies the coming age of the network society while, in turn, being shaped by the dynamics of the network society. Through extensive empirical research, the book examines patterns emerging in the digital era, including mass self-communication, sociality 3. 0, the surveillance state and informational capitalism, the digitalization of financial market, networked social movements, etc. Against the technological determinism, Castells emphasizes that the effects of the digital society, in its wide array of new technologies, on humans and nature depend on who uses each technology and for what it is used. In front of a new world brought by the digital society and ultimately shaped by the network society, the intellectual project underlying this book is an attempt to move from disinformed bewilderment to informed consciousness of our new human experience.

    This discussion examines generative AI as an anthropomorphic subject for sociological research, akin to how sociology traditionally focuses on human beings as its ultimate subject of study. The recent emergence of multi-modal large language models not only allows for the imitation of human language, but also in some instances, has fostered deep, almost intimate connections between users and AI companionship agents. In response to these anthropomorphic characteristics, sociologists must critically examine the black-box algorithms, the errors and biases inherent in AI systems, as well as the exaggerated claims made by certain media and corporations. Moreover, it is essential to emphasize that the development and training of AI systems, such as large language models, urgently require sociological perspectives and input

    The emergence of big data and computational tools has introduced new possibilities for using large-scale textual sources in sociological research. Recent work in sociology of culture, science, and economic sociology has shown how computational text analysis can be used in theory building and testing. This review starts with an introduction of the history of computer-assisted text analysis in sociology and then proceeds to discuss five families of computational methods used in contemporary research. Using exemplary studies, it shows how dictionary methods, semantic and network analysis tools, language models, unsupervised, and supervised machine learning can assist sociologists with different analytical tasks. After presenting recent methodological developments, this review summarizes several important implications of using large datasets and computational methods to infer complex meaning in texts. Finally, it calls researchers from different methodological traditions to adopt text mining tools while remaining mindful of lessons learned from working with conventional data and methods.

    数字资本主义的新形态并没有逃离马克思主义的论域而成为一个免受批判的“美丽新世界”,相反,它更深入地走进了马克思主义的论域。通过揭示数字资本主义下的网红经济与马克思《资本论》中“企业主理论”的同构性,可以发现,网红正是作为一种“新型企业主”,一方面参与数字平台对他人的剥削,另一方面自己也受到这种剥削,并且对这种剥削的存在浑然不觉。更进一步,网红在数字资本主义时代受到的剥削比在传统资本主义时代受到的剥削更广泛、更隐蔽。这启示我们:在数字资本主义新时代要与时俱进地发挥马克思主义的批判功能,戳破数字资本主义的意识形态神话,避免落入历史的陷阱。

    The rapid development of generative artificial intelligence is driving a paradigm shift in social sciences research. A new fifth paradigm, Intelligent Social Science (ISS) paradigm, is emerging, which is based on social science theories and empirical knowledge and treats the generated data from “ large models + AI agents ” as meaningful factual data for research. Technologically, this new paradigm is based on two major breakthroughs in generative AI: the “machine learning revolution ” represented by large models, which moves from “ pattern recognition” to “world simulation”; and the “ germ of general artificial intelligence” driven by AI Agents, where LLMs powered intelligent agents evolve from solving “ specific tasks” to tackling “general problems”. Logically, this paradigm deeply integrates and empowers the four traditional paradigms: quantitative, qualitative, social simulation, and big data. It overcomes the fragmentation, bias, and access barriers of traditional data through AI-generated data and expands the factual space for knowledge discovery through theory-guided interactive mechanisms. In application, precise simulation of universal social systems can be achieved by constructing intelligent social models representing various human actors and social structures, revealing the emergence laws of complex social phenomena; and the general implementation of scientific discovery empowers the entire “ scientific cycle” process, from literature review, hypothesis generation, data collection and analysis to theory test and discovery, significantly enhancing the efficiency of social science research.

    《技术封建主义》是法国左翼经济学家、社会评论家塞德里克·迪朗2020年出版的著作,2024年出版中文版。该书阐述了数字技术统治下资本主义经济的封建化转向,以一种人类社会超越资本主义的未来面向系统性地剖析了技术封建主义假说的缘起与逻辑结构。当然,由于对马克思“利润”“劳动”等概念的误读,以及对自由竞争的资本主义向帝国式的垄断资本主义转变过程的忽略,这一假说也受到了批评,质疑作者将垄断资本主义的亚形态误认为资本主义的终结。跳出审视的眼光,本文更关注的是迪朗对社会平台化进程中所暴露的问题之针砭而引发的关于平台的思考,并以此为启发尝试初步建构起“平台帝国”的全新想象。

    Big data provides both rich data resources and analytical dimensions for the social sciences, promoting a paradigm shift in empirical research from macro to micro, from interpretation to prediction, and from theory to data. Valuing the five principles of empirical science (exploration of new knowledge, skepticism, theoretical explanation, verifiability, and evidence-based approach), this article discusses the respective characteristics and scientific significance of four data forms: case studies, experiments, surveys, and big data. Furthermore, it proposes four pathways to integrate traditional data forms with big data: (1) big data analysis of substantive issues, (2) measurement improvement through big data, (3) theory-guided big data prediction, and (4) offline random sampling for online data collection. These pathways not only enrich data sources and enhance analytic depth, but also improve the scientific approach and time-efficiency of empirical research. Finally, the article proposes data-driven, theory-informed empirical research as the future direction of social science research, whose functions include theoretical verification and discovery driven by big data, integration of data mining and measurement, analysis of group characteristics and overall trends, and combination of real-world and virtualworld samples. These functions will manifest the key role of big data in promoting theoretical breakthroughs and methodological improvement in the social sciences.

    在数字经济时代,具有历史深度和传统积淀的正能量文化在网络空间中出现;与此同时,数字技术完全颠覆了传统的商业模式,改变了人们的消费方式。在这种背景下,网络消费渠道是否对大学生传统文化认同符号消费产生重要影响,值得关注。本文基于调查数据实证分析了网络消费渠道对传统文化认同符号消费的影响关系及其作用机制,发现网络消费渠道对大学生的传统文化认同符号消费起到了积极的促进作用。分样本检验发现,网络消费渠道对澳门内地生的传统文化认同符号消费未产生显著影响,内地网络消费渠道对传统文化认同符号消费的作用在内地澳门生群体中也未见显现。中介机制分析表明,冲动消费观念、理性消费观念均是网络消费渠道影响大学生传统文化认同符号消费的重要中介因子。调节效应分析发现,相对于女性大学生,网络消费渠道会增强男性大学生传统文化认同消费;相对于澳门身份大学生而言,网络消费渠道对内地大学生群体的影响更大;大学生社会兼职时间越长,网络消费渠道对大学生传统文化认同符号消费的影响越小。

    This study employs image recognition and micro-expression recognition technologies to digitize live streaming interactions, combined with panel vector autoregressive ( PVAR) modeling of real-time audience engagement metrics. The research reveals the complex temporal dynamics underlying the conversion of emotional capital in live streaming ecosystems. Key findings indicate that emotional intensity—rather than valence—plays the most significant role in driving engagement. While hosts?? positive emotional expressions demonstrate stable audience retention effects, negative expressions generate transient interaction spikes followed by compensatory attrition. The study makes dual contributions: 1 ) it empirically validates the crucial role of emotional capital in the intelligent era, and 2) demonstrates the methodological potential of computational social science paradigms in analyzing emergent digital interaction patterns.

    The classical theory of social solidarity has a significant gap: it overlooks the role of technology. Connection technologies not only influence the mechanisms of social connection but also shape the forms of social solidarity. Since Durkheim??s time, the nature of social connections has evolved from physical interactions to more abstract forms, leading to a transformation in social solidarity from organic to ecological. In the age of digital intelligence, machines act as autonomous quasi-human agents, participating in the production, daily life, and even the construction of meaning for humans. Consequently, classical social solidarity theory becomes inadequate as it is confined to human interactions alone. This paper posits that the social connection mechanism is shifting from abstract connections to human-machine connections, and that ecological solidarity is evolving back into a form of human solidarity in contrast with machines. It further asserts that human solidarity fundamentally embodies a mutuality between humans and machines. Mechanistically, this mutuality manifests through the mutual?construction of human-machine agents, ethical synergies in actions, and recursive governance practices. The ultimate aim of human solidarity is to uphold human subjectivity and dignity while recognizing the autonomy of machines. Furthermore, this paper advocates for sovereign states to collaboratively maintain human unity, grounded in the foundational structure of human social organization.

    With the rapid development of digital technologies, research methods and theoretical paradigms in social sciences are undergoing profound transformation. Unlike traditional quantitative methods and causal inference approaches, computational social science provides unprecedented explanatory and predictive power for complex social phenomena through algorithmdriven simulation modeling and data mining. This paper focuses on the revolutionary impact of digital technology on social theory, exploring how digital technologies, while simultaneously driving paradigmatic shifts in social science research, reshape the foundational logic and knowledge systems of social theory. The research indicates that, driven by big data and artificial intelligence, social theory has undergone transformative shifts toward an analog turn, singularity logic, and human-machine symbiotic knowledge production paradigms.

    Some scholars argue that AI will lead to massive unemployment, while others believe AI will promote employment. How to understand the validity of these opposing views? The authors suggest that this divergence stems from the scholars?? differing “problem consciousness”. Problem consciousness plays a crucial role in daily life, academic research, and social governance. The article reviews various perspectives on “ problem consciousness”, including “being aware of problems”, “concern for reality”, and “reflection and critique”, and finds that scholars often rigidly interpret problem consciousness without recognizing its system. Subsequently, the article proposes its own viewpoint: problem consciousness is a system encompassing three layers—doubt and inquiry, reflective critique, and reflection on reflection— referred to as the “hierarchy of problem consciousness”. The article particularly focuses on the “questioning” aspect, outlining various modes of questioning, with authentic questioning being the most profound. Next, based on the “ hierarchy of problem consciousness ”, the paper analyzes the opposite views on “AI and employment”, concluding that different scholars lack different layers of problem consciousness. Finally, it emphasizes the importance of adhering to “I think, speak, do, therefore I am” and “ solving” problems through actions. The awareness of prevention is also crucial. However, due to cognitive limitations, people??s “ prevention ” awareness is lacking and difficult to enrich, so problems are inevitable.

    Based on the China Longitudinal Aging Social Survey data from 2018 and 2020, this study explores the impact of smart wearables on the subjective well-being ( includes life satisfaction and depressive symptoms ) of China??s elderly population, and examines gender differences. The elderly respondents were divided into four groups: never users, discontinued users, new users, and continuous users. The results show that: (1) Compared to never users, discontinued users experience a significant decrease in life satisfaction and an increase in depressive symptoms, while new users show improved life satisfaction; ( 2 ) Compared to continuous users, discontinued users have lower life satisfaction and more severe depressive symptoms; ( 3 ) The heterogeneity analysis shows that the decrease in subjective well-being among discontinued users is similar for both male and female elderly adults, while the increase in life satisfaction among new users is more pronounced in females than in males. Against the backdrop of an aging population and increasing social digitalization, this study provides reliable empirical support for China??s continuous development of intelligent services tailored to older adults.

    以生成式人工智能为代表的新一轮科技革命正深刻影响着人类社会。在此背景下,人工智能不应仅被视作研究对象,更应成为推动社会学研究方法创新的技术引擎。基于大规模抽样调查开展统计分析是社会学量化研究的主流方法,然而它往往存在一些难以规避的缺陷,如成本高昂、时效性差、敏感议题测量误差大等。ChatGPT、DeepSeek 等大语言模型的发展在这方面提供了新思路,这些人工智能工具已能在很大程度上模拟人类的思考与行为。使用若干全国性抽样调查数据对其训练后,可认为该人工智能习得了中国情境下人类社会的大量因果逻辑、态度与行为,故而可直接将其作为抽样调查的受访对象,即用大量人工智能替代人类受访者来收集调查数据。毫无疑问,将人工智能作为受访者和社会模拟器,具有成本低、时效快、不受伦理问题困扰等优势,但也存在不少潜在风险。因此,在使用过程中,应遵循以理论为指导、以抽样调查数据为锚点、立足现实问题等原则。

    街景影像资料是开展安全感知研究的重要数据来源。然而以调查问卷等方式进行人工评分,会受到成本限制,难以在空间尺度和覆盖范围之间取得平衡。本研究选取西安市1005 处四方位街景影像作为样本,对基于视觉语言模型的标注方法的可行性进行评估,重点聚焦于标注结果的信度和效度。其中,信度评估指标设定为两次独立模型标注结果的差异绝对值,效度评估指标则为人工标注结果与模型标注结果的相关性。研究结果显示,大语言模型的标注结果在信度和效度方面表现良好:平均差异为5.4分(100分制),46.4%的案例标注结果完全一致,17.0%的案例差异处于(0,5]分区间;高信度标注结果与人工标注结果的相关性达到0.698。内容分析揭示了视觉语言模型评分推理的关注要点。综上所述,基于视觉语言模型开展街景安全感评估具有可行性,但在现阶段建议采用经过交叉验证后的高信度结果。

    以大语言模型为代表的生成式人工智能正为社会学知识生产带来新的可能。本文依托 2011年、2021年中国综合社会调查的卫生保健模块数据,将三种大语言模型(DeepSeek-v3、GPT-40、Qwen-plus)生成的结果与人类真实应答展开对比分析,旨在探讨大语言模型生成的“硅基样本”在复现公众态度方面的表现。研究发现,硅基样本的应结果具有不确定性,这种不确定性体现在微观层面的个体应答、宏观层面的变量分布以及中观层面的变量关系上,具体表现为以下三个方面:一是人类样本与硅基样本之间存在差异;二是硅基样本自身应答一致性存在差异;三是不同大语言模型生成的硅基样本之间存在差异。本文认为,当前的大语言模型难以精准复现公众态度,无法替代人类应答。硅基样本虽看似具备一定“可能”,但尚难真正“可为”。

    近期,围绕大语言模型展开的讨论指出,大语言模型智能体能够模拟社会调查中的人类受访者,给出可靠回答,如对政治民意调查中的投票结果进行预测。然而,当前已有的研究结论并不统一,难以判定大语言模型生成的数据与通过概率抽样得到的人口特征是否一致。在本文中,我们借助大语言模型重复生成的硅基样本数据构建抽样分布进而比较通义千问和 ChatGPT-4 生成的硅基样本的人口特征分布,与中国人口普查(2020)和中国社会综合调查(CGSS)2017年数据中人口特征分布的差异。实验一的结果显示,硅基人口分布中女性占比略高于普查比例,硅基人口的年龄均值与实际人口相近,但硅基人口中接受高等教育和居住在乡村的比例过高。这反映出硅基人口数据与人口普查结果存在差距,且这一差距在两种模型中均有体现。在实验二中,我们赋予通义千问和 ChatGPT-4o 智能体与 CGSS 2017 受访者相同的人口社会经济特征,让它们回答有关收入分配的态度问题。两种大模型的回分布高度相似,且与人类受访者的回答明显不同,呈现出强调社会公平和福利制度的偏好。同时,硅基样本生成答案的差异程度远低于人类受访者。最后,我们探讨了运用大语言模型进行人口统计推断的影响和意义。
