最近商会史研究之刍见

Recent Research On The History Of The Chamber Of Commerce

最近几年,商会史研究仍受到关注,但也有式微之迹象。这一方面是由于其他新兴的研究领域正在崛起;另一方面也与其面临的一些困惑有关,如自我定位、理论方法、史料运用等。商会研究不仅仅是为了解商会,更是以此透视丰富的近代历史,并且为其他学科理论探讨提供经验基础。研究者要超过既有的成果,提出新的观点,除了调整思路,更需要避免掉入资料叙述者的话语陷阱,努力从史料中去寻找本土性的问题。

In recent years, the research on the chamber of commerce continued, but it faces dilemma, such as the self-localization, theory method, historical materials utilization and so on. To study chamber is not only for knowing chamber itself but also exploring complicated modern history, and provides the empirical base for other discipline＇s theory discussions. In order to surpass past achievements and produce new viewpoints, the researcher should not only adjust their thought but also avoid stepping into the material narration words trap, and diligently seeks the native questions from the historical materials.
