1995年:中国人类学的一个“拐点”

1995: An“Inflection Point”of Anthropology in China

自1995年乔健发表"人类学学科发展的困境与前景"以来,在民族学和人类学不同回应方式的推动下,中国人类学的学科地位发生了深刻的变化。主要表现为:第一,人类学涵盖民族学;第二,"民族学中国化"改为"人类学中国化"或"人类学本土化";第三,应用人类学占据强势;第四,人类学方法论的挑战也以中国与世界对抗的方式表现出来。乔健发表的这篇就职演说会在短时间产生如此大的连锁反应,恐怕是作者本人也没有想到的。

since QIAO Jian published the article The plight and the prospect of the development of Anthropology in 1995, under the impetus of various ethnological and anthropological response, the disciplinary status of anthropology in China occurred profound changes, mainly performed with four aspects： Anthropology covers ethnology, Chinese Ethnology changed to Chinese Anthropology or localization of Anthropology, applied anthropology rapid development, the challenge of the anthropological methodology embodied as the combat of China to the World. QIAO Jian didn＇ t expect that his inaugural speech publication had such a big chain reaction to the academia in such a short time.
