摆渡学术知识:学术图书编辑的文化中介实践与底层逻辑——基于50篇工作手记的考察

Transmitting Academic Knowledge:A study on the Cultural Intermediary Practice and the Logic of Academic Book Editing Based on 50 Work Journals

本文立足于布迪厄的“文化中介”概念以及文化生产相关理论,通过对50篇学术图书编辑工作手记的分析梳理了学术图书的编辑实践流程及生产逻辑。研究发现,学术图书编辑凭借对职业的感性热爱以及从事编辑职业的专门知识,在构造学术图书的过程中为其生产象征资本并激活与之相关的经济资本。在此过程中,学术逻辑、经济逻辑和政治逻辑贯穿并决定着学术图书的编辑实践,学术图书编辑在与不同主体的互动中形塑了作为学术图书编辑的职业认同,并努力调和学术逻辑与经济逻辑之间的紧张关系,以期实现学术图书学术价值与经济效益的双赢。

This thesis is based on Bourdieu’s concept of"cultural intermediary"and the theory about cultural production.It tries to understand the editing practice and the impact of academic books by analyzing the editors’notes of more than 50 academic books.The research discovers that academic book editors,with their perceptual love for their profession and specialized knowledge in editing,compete for symbolic capital and activate relevant economic capital in the making of academic books.In this process,academic logic and economic logic go through and guide the editing practice.Academic book editors build up their professional identity in their interaction with people of different roles.They make efforts to reconcile the tension between academic logic and economic logic in order to achieve a win-win situation for both academic value and economic benefits of the books.
