全球化视域中的社会科学及其对公共政策的影响

Social Sciences in the Context of Globalization and Their Impact on Public Policies

全球化作为工业革命特别是21世纪以来社会最重要的底色,深刻变革着社会的公共环境和问题。社会科学以人类社会为研究对象,因而这种改变促使社会科学领域内的很多变化越来越凸显;而公共政策以解决社会公共问题为根本目标,与社会科学具有天然的联动效应。因此,全球化过程中,社会科学研究模式的新发展也引发了其参与公共政策方式的变化。全球化引发了公共问题国际化,包括公共问题背景国际化、问题本质国际化,以及问题解决国际化;因此导致了社会科学研究对象、学科设置、科研机构和研究方法等领域不断产生新的变化;而公共问题国际化和社会科学研究领域的一系列变化也必然对社会科学参与公共政策的的方式形成影响。

Globalization is the most important faced of modern society and it has been changing the public environment and public affairs profoundly.Social sciences take human society as the research subject and make many changes prominent,where as public policies aim at making solutions to social public issues,which exert coupling effect with social sciences.In the process of globalization, new developments in the research patterns of social sciences initiate the change of the ways to participate in public policy making. Globalization leads to the internationalization of public issues such as background internationalization,essence internationalization and solution internationalization,which causes new changes in research subjects,discipline setting,scientific research institutions and methodologies.In the meantime,such internationalizations and new changes are bound to affect the ways social sciences participate in public policy making.
