探索教育理论本土化的途径——论知识社会学方法在教育研究中的应用

Exploring the Approach to the Localization of Educational Theory——on the Application of Knowledge Sociology Method in the Education Research

发端于马克思的知识社会学强调对知识与社会的关系进行分析,指出知识的生产、选择、分配和传递等都受社会环境的影响。目前,我国教育研究中开始较多应用知识社会学方法,主要有两条路径:其一是对教育理论和教育政策演变的知识社会学分析;其二是对知识演化与控制的知识社会学分析。但是目前将教育场域中的知识生产和传递置于社会运行视野中的研究依然缺乏。

Sociology of knowledge, originated in Karl Marx＇ s sociology, emphasizes the analysis of relation between knowledge and social context, concludes that the production, selection,distribution and transform of knowledge are always under the influence of social context. Currently in China, knowledge sociology method is more frequently used in the education research with two approaches. The first one is the analysis of educational theories and the evolution of policies from the perspective of knowledge sociology; and the second one is the analysis of the evolution and control of knowledge from the perspective of knowledge sociology. At present, however, there is still a shortage of research into the knowledge production and spread in the educational field from the perspective of social functioning.
