民族学与社会学学院的前身是建立于1952年的中央民族学院研究部。在20世纪五六十年代,研究部曾汇聚了中国大部分民族学与社会学的顶尖人才,如中国民族学与社会学的开拓者潘光旦、吴文藻、杨成志、吴泽霖、费孝通、林耀华和李有义等人以及他们的学生陈永龄、宋蜀华、施联朱、王辅仁、吴恒和王晓义等著名学者。
20世纪80年代初,研究部更名为民族研究所,不久又建立了中国第一个民族学系,20世纪90年代扩大为民族学研究院,2000年更名为民族学与社会学学院。半个世纪以来,名称和建制的变化,并没有影响她致力于民族学教学与研究的宗旨,经过几代人的努力,从该院毕业的民族学专业的学士、硕士和博士已遍布全国各地,多为栋梁之材。同时出版了大量在国内影响巨大的专著和教材。如潘光旦、吴文藻、费孝通等人的文集,林耀华先生主编的《民族学通论》、宋蜀华先生的《民族研究文集》、陈永龄先生的《中国民族学史》(英文版),还出版了全所历年研究成果的论集《民族研究论文集》(1981-1993年,共九册),这些出版物的共同特点是,以实地调查的材料为基础,以中国的56个民族为主要研究对象。几十年来,这已成为我院几代人的学术传统。
民族学(文化人类学)毕竟是一个自西方传来的学科,在中国发展历史较短,几十年来又多次受政治运动的干扰,所以与我国一些传统的老学科相比,中国的民族学无论在专业的理论、方法和研究成果方面,都是一个比较年轻、比较薄弱的学科。因此,今后本学科的重点是加强民族学专业的基础理论和方法的建设。为此,我们认为需要长期坚持两个方面的工作:
一、积极了解和借鉴国外学者有关的理论、方法和实践。这就要求我们既要翻译、介绍国外一些经典的名著,又要随时掌握国外研究的动向,将其最新的代表性作品翻译介绍给国内的读者和同行。
二、也是更重要的一个方面,继承我院50年来的传统,坚持实证性的研究方法,以中国的56个民族为主要研究对象,紧密联系实际,加强实地调查,以此为基础,进行理论总结,为建立独树一帜的、有中国特点的民族学理论而努力。
我们认为有必要使我们的学科建设和理论研究进一步系统化、规范化,并且在研究成果的基础上不断更新我们的教材。因此,我们于2000年成立了“民族学教材与研究丛书编委会”,目的是以民族学与社会学学院为基础,系统地编辑出版民族学专业的教材和以实证性研究为主的专著、调查报告和论文。
