Folklore, as a grassroots culture and national spirit of expression, always changing process. It will inevitably accompanied by social development and growth and decline of life evolving constantly updated. Now, with the accelerated process of modernization, folk custom play center is making folk mass transfer occurs, the integrated function from the countryside to the social gathering place-the city. Therefore, the urban folk era of the research has important significance, but also that enough attention.60s of the 20th century the rise of international urban folklore, after half a century of development has been relatively mature.Mr. Zhong Jingwen our early 60's in the 20th century, concern has been raised to the city (Shanghai) folk recommendations. But after 20 years no major breakthrough. Eighties and nineties until the beginning of the 20th century, the scholars began to focus urban folk, unfortunately has not formed a strong climate discussion. The study and more scattered in various proceedings and journals, books, translations and so little. View from the scope of the study and the researchers only focus on the Shanghai and Guangzhou, a few cities, are weak, and to collect and record all the old folk-based city.Although some scholars, such as Dun-Fu Zhang, Tao Si Yan, Xu Hualong, Folklores Katakawa theory building and other work done, but the basic are tentative discussions and conclusions, or lack of systematic theory in order, or we naturally reasonable, the lack of materials support. Therefore, the development of urban folklore there are many problems to be solved.The development of urban folklore of Japan so far, probably after the germination, establishment, development, climax, became stagnant in five phases. This paper will focus on the main line to the researchers combed the development of Japanese urban folklore context. Yanagida Kunio from the proposed relationship between urban and rural areas-are vulgar piece of the beginning, the Japanese Urban folklore has been established the tone early stage of development. Ying Tian Shengde then, Chiba Dell to further improve on the city, modernization, urbanization, and other basic concepts is given a more detailed interpretation. However, in Chiba Dell made on the Modernization and urbanization did not escape before a clear distinction between Yanagida Kunio effect.Miyata Teng is a master of Japanese urban folklore studies, in theory, make the aspects of collecting examples of outstanding contributions, marking Japan's urban folklore mature. Positions have emerged during the same period Shizhong Yan, history, and a number of high Kuwamori Urban folklore scholars have come on. Methodological significance of the "spaces" have been proposed to enrich the urban folklore of the subject system. Little Lin Zhongxiong after study also contributed to the progress of urban folklore. Then the Japanese economy into a relatively slow period, urban folklore study has ended.Urban Folklore from the above development in Japan can be summarized as the development of Japanese urban folklore few basic rules, a Japanese-style research ideas and academic traditions give us some insights.Japanese scholars, especially the relationship between urban and rural areas, the relationship between modernization and urbanization, and the aspect of urban folklore of the results to be carefully sorted and analyzed. This paper use the Social History in the discussion of these three issues, a detailed analysis of the Japanese Urban folklore how to make and solve these three problems. Specific Urban folklore in Japan occurred in the history of urban and rural development and urban-rural continuum of dualism; understanding of modernization is a process of change, urbanization is the change resulting from things like new. These folk customs that exist in urban spaces, for a more comprehensive, systematic grasp,Japanese scholars of the "four spaces"-living space, professional space, entertainment space and moving space. This final point to three main issues of the scope of urban folklore, including the revelation of a far-reaching.Meanwhile, as an independent branch of speaking, research methods is critical. Combination of Japanese folklore the revelation of the city and adjacent disciplines results, try to put in the paper written ethnography, tracking surveys, attention to written material, pay attention to "individual" survey and other research methods and ideas.Unlike Japan, China has the economic, political, ethnic, cultural and other specific conditions, also determined that we can not copy the Japanese theory of urban folklore. Which we are confronted with what the new situation and new problems? In the end how to achieve a breakthrough in China's urban folklore? The future of our ongoing exploration.
