新时代中国边疆学构筑的发展及反思

The Disciplinary Connotations in the Construction of Chinese Borderland Studies in the New Era

中国边疆研究源远流长,特别是自近代以来,在内忧外患的时局环境中国边疆学术研究已相继形成两次高潮,分别是:一次是鸦片战争前后,西北边疆史地研究的繁荣;另一次是20世纪三四十年代,其标志是"边政学"的提出与展开。20世纪80年代以来,又因实现中华民族伟大复兴的历史使命所系,中国边疆研究第三次高潮业已形成,至今仍方兴未艾。随着新时代的来临,加快构筑中国特色哲学社会科学学科体系、学术体系、话语体系的需要,学界学人对"中国边疆学"学科构筑的探索正日趋形成新的高潮,在此过程中,既有"同声相应,同气相求",又有认识上的碰撞与分歧。鉴于此,中国边疆学构筑中的学科内涵问题亟需进一步廓清与深化。

Chinese borderland studies has a long history.So far,it has gone through thousands of years of accumulating experience,100 years of exploration,and 40 years of innovation and development.Especially since the early modern times,though facing the internal and external troubles,its academic research reached two climaxes:one was around the Opium War when the historical research on the northwestern borderland of China got rich fruit;the other was in the 1930 s and 1940 s when "Borderland Politics" was proposed and developed.Since the 1980 s,because of the historical mission of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,the third climax of Chinese borderland studies has emerged,and continued until today.With the advent of the new era and the quickened steps of the construction of the disciplinary system,the academic system,and discourse system of philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics,the exploration of the disciplinary construction of "Chinese borderland studies" by scholars in various fields is gradually reaching a new climax.This process has seen both "like attracts like" and collisions and differences in understanding.In view of this,the disciplinary connotations in the construction of Chinese borderland studies need to be further clarified.
