区隔与融合:中国环境社会学与生态人类学的跨学科演绎

Segmentation and Integration-On the Interdisciplinary Interpretation of Chinese Environmental Sociology and Ecological Anthropology

目前,在中国环境社会学与生态人类学均是不断成长、发展中的学科。由于这两个分支学科在研究对象上有所重叠,因此容易造成理解的偏差和内涵的误读,需要首先对环境与生态两个概念进行辨析,继而从环境社会学与生态人类学的发端、研究导向、分析单位、范式等方面比较两个分支学科之间的不同点,针对国际潮流和中国现阶段面临的问题着手讨论两个分支学科跨越障碍的必要性。

At present, environmental sociology and ecological anthropology in China are two disciplines gaining in developments. Due to the overlapping of their study subjects, it is likely to misread the connotation of the two sub-disciplines. Therefore, distinction should be made between the concepts of environment and ecology. Then comparison should be made to the origin, the research orientation, the unit of analysis and paradigm of environ- mental sociology and ecological anthropology. Finally, necessity of bridging the gap between the two sub-disci- plines should be discussed against the background of international developments and China＇s current issues.
