社会研究方法论比较谈

On the Methodology of Social Research

在社会科学和人文科学领域里 ,实证主义方法论与人文主义方法论的争论旷日持久。批判理论和诠释理论在反对实证主义方法论和发展自己的方法论思想过程中独树一帜 ,但这并不意味着其方法论不存在着隐患。 M·韦伯虽然竭力倡导理解社会学 。

In the fields of social science and humanities, there has been a prolonged argument over the methodology between positivists and humanists. In opposing the positivism and developing their own methodology, critical theory and expounding theory become two outstanding schools in this respect. However, there have remained some defects with the methodology of these two schools. While M. Weber advocates understanding sociology, he pays adequate attention to the scientific and objective property of social research.
