在细致梳理数字社会学既有研究成果的基础上，本文对数字社会学这一国际社会学界的最新研究转向进行了引介。首先回顾了数字社会学的产生背景，通过理论溯源认为数字社会学应当被视为一种学科大融通的尝试与努力。研究认为，数字社会学是在新的历史条件下对“前数字”时代传统技术社会学的继承和发展。最后，本文认为数字社会学的主要研究主题包括大数据的获取与分析、数字媒体使用的社会学分析以及数字社会学批判性研究。

Based on a careful review of the existing research results in digital sociology, this paper introduces digital sociology as the latest research turn in the international sociological community. Firstly, the background of digital sociology is reviewed, and through theoretical tracing, it is argued that digital sociology should be regarded as an attempt and effort of disciplinary integration. It is argued that digital sociology is an inheritance and development of the traditional sociology of technology in the "pre-digital" era under new historical conditions. Finally, it is argued that the main research themes of digital sociology include the acquisition and analysis of big data, the sociological analysis of digital media use, and the critical study of digital sociology.
