中国语境中的“科学人类学”之定义问题

Problems in Defining "Anthropology of Science" in Chinese Context

在分析讨论国内对于科学人类学不同的定义、不同的称谓的前提下,基于对国际上科学人类学发展最为概要的回顾,提出了科学人类学的定义,也解释说明了采用"科学人类学"这一名称的理由,以及需要在这一名称中对科学一词采取最广义的理解的理由。

Based on analysis of different names and definitions of anthropology of science in China, and brief review of the development of this discipline, the definition by author was suggested. In this definition, the reasons for why using the name anthropology of science, and why taking understanding of the concept of ＂science＂ in the broadest sense, were also given and explained.
