清末民国时期的畲族研究及其特点

The Study of the She Ethnic Group and Its Characteristics during the Late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China

畲族研究起步于清末民国时期。当时的学界对畲族族属、迁徙路线、人口、文化、生计方式、社会问题等方面作了大量研究,这些研究呈现出研究视角以“他者”为主、规范的民族学研究和传统的史学研究并存、研究材料主要来自地方史志、学界的研究立场和出发点有所差异等特点。对该时期学术史的梳理,有利于把握畲族研究的历史,也有助于理解清末民国时期的学术研究及其时代背景,亦能为我国当前的民族研究提供借鉴。

The late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China was the initial stage of She Ethnic Group research.The academic community has conducted a large amount of research on the She Ethnic Group from the aspects of affiliation,migration routes,population,culture,livelihood methods,social issues,and so on.There are characteristics such as a research perspective based on the“other”,a coexistence of normative ethnological research and traditional historical research,and research materials mainly from local historical records,and differences in academic research positions and starting points.The sorting out of the academic history of this period is conducive to grasping the history of She Ethnic Group research,as well as understanding the academic research and its era background during the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.It also has some reference significance for China’scurrent ethnic research.
