话语研究方法的中国模式

A Chinese Methodology for Discourse Studies

西方语境下建立起的话语分析方法论及方法,不能套用于中华文化话语;为着自己的文化学术身份和声音、乃至学科的对话创新,中国学者也应该建立相应的方法系统。本文在揭示了主流话语研究方法论的西方中心主义问题之后,运用跨历史和跨文化对话的方法,提出一套以整体全面、辩证统一、主客相间、中外兼顾、探索不止等原则为特征的中国话语研究方法论。

Discourse analysis or discourse studies, as a globalizing form of knowledge-productive practice, is West- centric not just in its studies of developing, third-word societies, but as a method in the social sciences in the first place. After exposing its methodological parochialism, the present paper develops, through cultural and historical dialogue and critique, a first Chinese methodology for discourse research. It is characterized by holistic, dialectic, subject-object-interlacing, local- global-inclusive, and continuously-creative principles. Its practical use is illustrated through a range of studies of contemporary Chinese discourses.
