作为方法的空间

Space as a Method

传统的空间研究,倾向于将空间视为一种"对象"。这种观念源自传统认识论对于空间属性的确认,即把空间看作绝对的、静止的几何学概念,或是某种先天纯粹的知觉形式,由此造成了空间阐释张力的严重不足。在列斐伏尔和福柯的空间思想引领之下,学界出现了"空间转向"之热潮,改变了研究者们对于空间的既往认识,其不再只是被动的研究对象,还可作为一种方法,成为认识问题的媒介与方式。这种空间方法论的创变,为研究界带来了极富革命性的启思。但就目前来说,空间方法论仍存有不少局限,这需要引起研究者们的及时关注。

The traditional space research tends to consider space as a kind of object. This concept comes from the spatial properties confirmed by traditional epistemology, which considered space as an absolute, static geometry concept, or a congenital pure perception form, this caused a serious shortage of spaceg explanation. Under the lead of Henry Lefebvre and Michel Foucaultg space ideas, ＂spatial turn＂ appeared in academia, it changes the researchers ＂knowledge about space, space no longer a passive object of research, but also a method for research questions. This Spatial methodology brings revolutionary thought for research community. But now spatial methodology still have some limitations, we should pay attention to this.
