从简化到复杂:比较教育范式研究

From the Simplified to Complexity:A Study on the Paradigm of Comparative Education

在归纳主义的背景下,牛顿经典力学和简单范式的巨大成功,使得人文社会科学也仿照简单范式的方法、原则,探求各自领域的普遍性、必然性的规律。比较教育学也不例外。它从诞生之日起,就一直在简化思维即历史主义和实证主义的范式下徘徊不前。这种思维方式在当时虽然有助于比较教育的发展,但从长远来看,简化范式本身所固有的缺陷使其无法解决比较教育研究所面临的困境。只有转变思维方式,从实体走向关系或生成,即从复杂性的视角重新审视比较教育研究,才是解决这一问题的出路。

Under the background of the inductivism,the great success of the Newton classical mechanics and the simple paradigm makes humanities social science also counterfeit the methods and principles of the simple paradigm to explore universality and necessity law of their respective fields.There is no exception for Comparative education.It has been going around from its birth day under the paradigm of simplified thinking,namely the historical principle and the positivism.Although this thinking way is conducive to the development of the comparative education at that time,in the long run,because of the defects of the ontology,epistemology and methodology which the simplified paradigm itself inherent make it cannot solve the dilemma that the comparative education faces.Only transforming the thinking way,from the solid to relationship or generation,namely reviewing the comparative education research from the perspective of complexity is the outlet of solving this problem.
