Abstract: The development of sociology of socialism with Chinese characteristics requires young sociologists to rooted in China. Using CSSCI data, this article analyses the development characteristics of the young sociology scholars from five aspects: gender and age, institution and region, subject and topic, qualitative and quantitative, and local and returnee. The details are as follows: (1)Scholars account for both genders as equal. Their genders are relatively balanced, and the "post-75s" and "post-80s" are evenly matched; (2)They mainly work in the sociology department of university, and they are mainly concentrated in Beijing, Shanghai and Wuhan; (3)They are widely distributed in various sub-disciplines and gathered in sub-disciplines that are closely integrated with real-life experience; (4)They are rooted in China and focus their research topics on major economic and social phenomena with unique Chinese characteristics; (5)Their research mainly uses qualitative research methods, but the quantitative research methods are developing strongly, and the blending of methods is becoming more obvious; (6)The main part is the doctor of local sociology, supplemented by the local doctor of other disciplines and the doctor of returned returnees. Trying to portray the group portraits of young Chinese sociology scholars and see through the development characteristics of socialist sociology with Chinese characteristics, it puts forward suggestions that attention should be paid to the training and support of young sociology scholars, support weaker regions and disciplines, strengthen empirical research and theoretical innovation, promote cross integration of methods, and optimize talent evaluation mechanisms.
