试论旅游学的研究对象与内容

Discussions on the research object and content of tourism science

旅游学的研究对象与内容是旅游基础理论的重要组成部分,也是深入研究旅游学必须首先解决的问题。文章在分析评价目前有关旅游学研究对象的四种代表性观点的基础上认为,旅游学应以旅游者的旅游活动(或旅游现象)为研究对象,重点分析和探讨旅游活动的成因、运动规律及其影响。旅游学的研究内容是旅游学的研究对象的具体化。可以从形成旅游活动的驱动系统、旅游活动自身的核心系统和旅游活动对外造成影响的外延系统三个方面确定旅游学的研究内容。分析和探讨旅游学的研究对象与内容对于促进旅游学及其学科体系的完善和发展具有重要的意义。

The research object and content of tourism science are the important constituents of the fundamental tourism theory,and the first issues for in-depth study of tourism science.This paper on the basis of analysis and evaluation of the four representative views on tourism science study indicates that tourism science should take the tourist activities（or tourism phenomenon） as the research object,analyzes and discusses the cause of the tourism activities,movement rules and its influence.The research content of tourism science is the embodiment of the tourism research object,we can determine the research content from three aspects： the drive system of forming tourism activities,the core system of tourism activities and the extension system of outside influence for tourism activities.Analysis and discussion about the tourism research object and content are of great significance to promoting tourism science and the discipline system of perfection and development.
