中国政治学的现状与未来

Where Does Chinese Political Discipline Head To——An Analysis of the Current Situation of Political Science and Chinese Political Studies

在当前中国政治研究如何发展的学术争论中，一部分学者强调政治研究的科学性、普遍性，认为中国的崛起需要中国政治研究具有一种世界性、全球性和普遍性的视野；另一部分学者强调中国的特殊性、民族特性、地方性知识和国情，倡导在中国的语境下建立本土化的中国政治学或中国学派。如何评估学科发展的现状、问题、挑战、发展方向，是继续科学化还是本土化，坚持普遍性还是特殊性，或是两者的协调统一，等等，这些问题都会对学科发展方向产生深远的影响。

This paper aims to discuss the ongoing academic debate on the new developments in Chinese political studies over the past three decades, and how the discipline will advance knowledge about Chinese politics in the future. In the debate some scholars emphasize the scientific, universal, and cosmopolitan nature and orientation of political research, while others emphasize the unique, particular, national, and local characteristics and orientation of Chinese political research, advocating to establish localized Chinese political science or a Chinese school in the Chinese context. How to evaluate the current state, problems, challenges, and future directions——scientification or localization, universality or particularity, or coordination between the two, and so on——would have long-term impacts on the future directions of the political science discipline in China.
