For a long time, the objectivity of social scientific knowledge has been one of the very difficult problems of the researchs about the social sciences. The objectivity is not only related to the researchers and the reality's philosophical proposition of external environment around, but also to one of the fundamental propositions to the sociology's objectivity and scientificity. A preliminary discussion has been made in this paper to clarify the objectivity of social scientific knowledge that the sociologists in the sociology field had made great efforts to ensure. The Practice Theory and Reflexive Sociology of Pierre Bourdieu, one of a post-modern sociologists, has been discussed the pre-constructution between the sociology researcher and the research objects by mainly using the pre-construction and participant objectivation of Pierre Bourdieu's theories, in order to find out the effective way to realize the objectivity of social scientific knowledge. Aiming at the ubiquitous pre-constructed, Bourdieu has proposed his main issues of participatant objectivation--the researchers must make effective analysis to the process of objectification, and consider the relationship between sociology and the research objects during the starting of the researching processes. This is to ensure the base of the objectivity of social scientific knowledge. Great efforts has been made in this paper to combine the Bourdieu's practical theories with the reflection of the main issues of participant objectivation in order to find out a realization way of ensuring the objectivity of social scientific knowledge for the researchers.
