高等教育学批判研究范式的意涵、价值及其运用--与王旭辉博士商榷

Definition,Significance and Application of the Critical Approach in Higher Education Research

"批判研究"在人文社会科学中是一种独特的研究范式,对高等教育研究与学科建设都具有一定的意义。王旭辉博士从"批判研究"方法论的视角审视高等教育研究不无裨益。但是,他对基本概念的认知陷入混乱之中,削弱了对话的有效空间;对"批判研究"的价值分析则落入与元研究的混沌之中,忽略了其实践批判的根本诉求;对"批判研究"在高等教育学中的具体运用又陷入矛盾之中,且没有指明"批判研究"的最终出路在于行动研究。因此,我们非常有必要对"批判研究"的意涵、价值及其运用等问题进行重新审视。

Critical theory approach is a unique methodology of research on humanities and social sciences.According to Dr.Wang Xuhui's recently published article,such an approach is also applicable to higher education research.Nevertheless,Dr.Wang's introduction of the critical approach is rather mistaken and misleading.He misinterpreted those basic concepts in critical research,underestimated its praxis significance,and ignored the dual emphasis on reflection and action in critical methodology.Therefore,it is necessary to for us take a further look at the definition,significance and application of the critical approach in higher education research.
