生态人类学的方法论

The Methodology on Eco-Anthropology

生态人类学立足于民族文化对人类生态行为及其后果进行分析,在分析时必然受到时间、空间制约及其它多种因素的干扰。本文提出“终端验证”的生态人类学研究方法,“终端验证法”的适用范围不仅在于文化的生物性适应方面,更在于文化的社会性适应方面。借助“终端验证法”,从文化的同质度、抗风险度和储备度三方面着手,可最大限度减少干扰,满足生态人类学的研究需要。

Eco-anthropology is a science which based on ethnic cultures, analyses human beings＇ ecological action and its consequence. Eco-anthropology has not a mature study method because of being restricted by time and space and interfered with by different factors. This article provides a new study method. It is the way of terminal verificatiom. The way of terminal rerificafion can not only be applied to the study of cultural bio-adaptability, but also to the study of cultural socio-adaptability. We should study culture from its moderate degree of nature, the degree of anti-risk and reserve resources. Thus we can reduce interferences and satisfy the need of Eco-anthropological study.
