国外民族共同体认同研究现状与前沿转向——基于Web of Science数据库的分析

Status and Reorientation of Foreign Ethnic Community Identity Research——An Analysis Based on Web of Science Database

本文基于文献计量学的共词分析法,利用CiteSpace软件以过去10年在Web of Science上发表的397篇关于民族共同体认同研究的重要文献为对象进行知识图谱可视化分析,以图文结合的形式,客观清晰地描绘出国外民族共同体认同研究的基本现状和发展轨迹,通过对样本文献中关键概念的梳理和热点研究主题的分析,揭示国外关于民族共同体认同研究的热点和趋势。研究发现:国外现有研究成果主要集中在民族共同体认同的基本概念、构成要素和影响因素等方面;研究角度较为单一,研究群体缺乏普遍性和代表性;研究方法以实证研究为主,偏向于考察社会、文化、心理因素对民族共同体认同的影响机制;研究前沿趋向于与时代接轨的更开放的视野,转向新媒体时代背景下的民族共同体研究。

This article,based on the co-word analysis method of bibliometrics,used CiteSpace software to visualize the knowledge map with 397 important research papers published on Web of Science over the past decade on ethnic community identity abroad.In a form of graphic and text combination,this article has objectively and clearly depicted the basic status and development trajectory of foreign ethnic community identity research.Through sorting out key concepts in the sample literature and analysis of hot research topics,it tries to reveal the hotspots and trends in foreign research on ethnic community identity in the new media era.This research has found out:the existing research results abroad mainly concentrate on basic concepts,constituent elements and influencing factors of ethnic community identity;the research perspective is relatively single,and the target groups lack universality and representativeness;the research method is mainly empirical,which tends to look into the influencing mechanism of social,cultural and psychological factors on ethnic community identity;and the research frontier favors a more open vision in line with the times,and has oriented toward the study of ethnic communities in the context of a new media era.
