论中国学术话语的当代建构——基于历史进程的视角

On the Construction of Contemporary Chinese Academic Discourse from a Historical Perspective

"学术话语"(Academy discourse)一般是指构成一种知识体系的语言文字形式的概念、术语、范畴和文段(text)。学术话语的建构历程反映了人类走向理性的过程。中国学术话语的建构经历了四个阶段,每一阶段都体现了其时思想体系的变化与发展。从中可以看出,一种学术话语的形成、丰富和发展,离不开与其他学术话语的对话、交流;学术话语权力不一定以经济的强势为标志,文化软实力在一定程度上更能体现学术话语的权力。建构当代中国学术话语体系,需要从概念、术语、范畴、思维方式、理论思辨、思想文化等方面入手,通过涵化和濡化的方式,形成既适用于全球化的学术交际,又具有中国特色的话语体系。

Academic discourse usually refers to the linguistic concepts,terms,categories and texts,which a knowledge system relies on.The construction of academic discourse reflects the development process of human reason.In China,from the Spring and Autumn Period up till now,the construction of academic discourse underwent four periods,reflecting the evolvement of its ideological system.The formation and development of an academic discourse are dependant on its interaction with other academic discourses.The power of an academic discourse is marked not so much by the material force of economy as by the ＂soft power＂ or cultural force.Therefore,it is necessary to start with concepts,terms,categories,ways of thinking,theoretical speculations,ideas and cultures,through acculturation and enculturation.Thus a contemporary academic discourse with Chinese characteristics and fit for global academic exchange can be constructed.
