中国民俗学的本土化:缘由、问题与路向

Localization of Chinese Folklore: Reasons, Questions and Ways

本土化议题近年来颇受学界关注,但作为一门有着本土渊源的学科,中国民俗学界对此较少讨论。从学术理路出发,结合民俗学的当下情境来看,民俗学面临着由传统民俗学向现代民俗学的学科转型,在此过程中本土化是学科发展的必然选择。但是,民俗学的本土化还面临着本土概念建构的无意识性与国际视野不够深、广、新的双重短板。民俗学本土化的探索和尝试,有待于学术共同体的继续努力。

Localization has attracted scholars’attention in recent years.Meanwhile,folklore closely connected with local society doesn’t pay much attention to localization.Folklore faces transformation from traditional-folklore to modern folklore in modern situation from academic theory angle.In this process,localization is inevitable choice in order to develop it.However,localization of folklore has two disadvantages.One is the unconsciousness of constructing local concept;the other one is superficial,narrow and old international perspective.Discovery and trial of folklore localization need continuous endeavor of academic community.
