南丹土司研究回眸与走势探析

Review and Tendency of the Study on Tribal Chiefs in Nandan

土司统治对古代南丹地域社会政治、经济与文化的发展产生过重要影响。学界对南丹土司的首次田野调查与研究始于20世纪50年代中期。近年来,在全国土司制度研究与土司文化遗产保护持续升温的时代背景下,南丹土司研究因此取得了一定的成绩。相对于全国其他区域土司研究而言,目前南丹土司研究成果依然偏少,其影响力仍有待提升。今后南丹土司研究应着力做到:一是注重研究内容的系统性;二是注意研究方法的多元化;三是注重对研究资料的深挖掘;四是加强田野调查与应用研究;五是加强土司研究基础设施建设。
