20年来西方的中国近现代乡村研究透视

Studies on Modern Rural China in the West over the past 20 Years

以《中国研究》、《中国季刊》、《近现代中国》为中心考察西方学术界20年来的中国近现代乡村研究。西方学术界在中国近现代乡村研究方面,研究领域进一步拓展,注重采取由下而上的研究视角,趋向于连接经验与理论、从实践出发认识中国乡村社会,对国内学术界产生了重要影响。

Focusing on three English journals in the West——The China Journal,The China Quarterly and Modern China,the present paper explores the modern rural China over the past 20 Years.With a widespread expansion in researching areas and a bottom-up method,the research in the West tends to study rural China by linking up experience with theory and starting from reality,which exerts an important influence on China＇s academic circle.
