Java - class type from inside static initialization block

Question

Is it possible to get a class type from inside a static initialization block?

This is a simplified version of what I currently have:

class Person extends SuperClass {

   String firstName;

   static{
      // This function is on the "SuperClass":
      //  I'd for this function to be able to get "Person.class" without me
      //  having to explicitly type it in but "this.class" does not work in 
      //  a static context.
      doSomeReflectionStuff(Person.class);     // IN "SuperClass"
   }
}

This is closer to what I am doing, it is initializing a data structure that contains information about the object and its annotations, etc. Maybe I'm using the wrong template?

public abstract SuperClass{
   static void doSomeReflectionStuff( Class<?> classType, List<FieldData> fieldDataList ){
      Field[] fields = classType.getDeclaredFields();
      for( Field field : fields ){
         // Initialize fieldDataList
      }
   }
}

public abstract class Person {

   @SomeAnnotation
   String firstName;

   // Holds information on each of the fields, I used a Map<String, FieldData>
   //  in my actual implementation to map strings to the field information, but that
   //  seemed a little wordy for this example
   static List<FieldData> fieldDataList = new List<FieldData>();

   static{
      // Again, it seems dangerous to have to type in the "Person.class"
      //   (or Address.class, PhoneNumber.class, etc...) every time.
      //   Ideally, I'd liken to eliminate all this code from the Sub class
      //   since now I have to copy and paste it into each Sub class.
      doSomeReflectionStuff(Person.class, fieldDataList);
   }
}

Edit

I chose the accepted answer based on what is best applicable to my problem, however it seems to me that all three of the current answers have their merits.

Answer 1

, stacktrace ( imo , - Thread#getStackTrace() new Exception()).

( ) , initialized.

public abstract class SuperClass {

    {
        if (!isInitialized(getClass())) {
            initialize(getClass());
        }
    }

}

static.

Answer 2

, Log:

.

public class Project implements Serializable, Cloneable, Comparable<Project> {
    private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Project.class);
    ...

Answer 3

, -

public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
    try{
        throw new Exception();
    }
    catch(Exception e){
        StackTraceElement[] sTrace = e.getStackTrace();
        // sTrace[0] will be always there
        String className = sTrace[0].getClassName();
        System.out.println(className);

    }
}

}
