“从实求知”与作为研究范式的“江村学”

“Knowledge from Practice”and Its Paradigm:“the Study of Jiangcun Village”

我们要贴切地理解和构建认识中国社会的知识体系,用以恰当地反思和理解全球时代的中国社会及其遭遇的复杂多变的新问题,其核心在于我们如何认识中国之"实"。跟随费孝通先生的江村调查和"行行重行行"的反复论证,我们逐步领悟到了一种建立在"志在富民"社会诉求基础上的情怀和基于"从实求知"、"实事求是"原则的认识论与方法论,其足以使我们将之作为一种"江村学"范式来理解和学习。"江村学"的真谛是"从实求知",其意在不断地"从实"中建设能够清楚认识中国之"实"的知识体系,又在"实践"中持续推进对"实"的理解和对"从实"的验证。正是基于对"实"的扎实认知,费先生进一步严肃地提出了"文化自觉",将其思考又延伸到对世界秩序与文明进程的总体性把握之中。

For anyone who wants to well understand and construct knowledge system on China＇ s society, which is critical to understand and reflect this society and complicated issues it confronted in the globalization era, the core is to understand the ＂reality＂ of China. By studying Dr. Fei＇ sstudy of Jiangcun Village and the method of repeated demonstration, we echo his ＂ambition in the people rich＂ and appreciate his epistemology and methodology which are concluded as ＂knowledge from practice＂ and ＂seek truth from facts＂. The study of Jiangcun Village is to be a paradigm for followers because this study addresses the ＂practice＂ and ＂facts＂ simultaneously. Based on a well-established social cognition, Dr. Fei developed the concept of ＂cultural consciousness＂, a further consideration on world order and civilization progress.
