Abstract

Life course theory reflects individual’s life trajectory in the location of history, which afterwards becomes a research paradigm that connects the personal level and the societal level. This study aims to take a historical and social perspective to examine the change and development of life course research and attempt to figure out the research tendency and hot spots. It is found that the life course research started from sociological domain and then diffused to the epidemiology and psychology field. However, its hot topics have always related to the classic theme on social issues. The trend in life course research is very much consistent with the changes of society.
