前近代东亚多民族国家疆域理论体系的建构——以《从“天下”到“中国”:多民族国家疆域理论解构》为中心

The Construction of Borderland Theory of Multi-Ethnic Country in Pre-Modern Time

在前近代东亚地区的历史场景下,以北方游牧族群和政权与南方农业族群和政权之间为主的互动与凝聚,不仅形成了以儒家文化为核心的东亚文明圈,而且也构建了被后世称之为"东亚秩序"的政治格局,进而在此基础上形成了一整套有关该地区特别是多民族国家政治、经济、民族与文化生态的独特思想、观念与叙事话语体系。近代以来欧美列强的入侵及其主导的近现代国际秩序,则打破和取代了传统的"东亚秩序"政治格局与思想体系,并试图在西方政治传统和强势学术话语体系之下解构与重构中国多民族国家形成与发展的历史,从根本上实现其所构建的"去中国中心主义"。在此情况下,立足前近代东亚历史发展的实际情况,从多民族国家疆域自身的演变历史、思想基础、制度体系与政策实践等四个层面总结、提炼与构建自成体系的本土疆域理论与学术话语体系,不仅为我们与西方学术界展开客观而平等的学术对话提供了基础与可能,而且对建设中国特色的边疆学学科体系也具有重要的现实意义。

In the historical context of East Asia Pre-Modern Time,the north nomadic ethnic groups and their regimes interacted and cohered with the south farming ethnic groups and their regimes,which not only formed the East Asia Civilization Circle with the core of Confucianism but also constructed the political landscape of East Asia Order in ancient time.On this basis,there developed a whole set of thought,idea and narrative discourse about the politics,economy,ethnic groups and culture of the Multi-Ethnic Country in East Asia.With the invasion of the west powers,the traditional political landscape and ideological system of East Asia had been broken and replaced by the modern international order,which led the deconstruction and reconstruction of China history dominated by the west political tradition and academic discourse system for Desinocentrism.In such cases,we should summarize,refine and construct the local borderland theory on the base of the borderland development history in Multi-Ethnic Country,as well as its ideological foundation,institutional system and policy practice,in order to develop an objective and equal dialogue with the west academic community,construct the Borderland Study discipline system with Chinese characteristics.
