21世纪中国区域国别研究知识谱系的特征与构建——基于多学科知识生产的比较分析

The Construction and Characteristics of the Knowledge Genealogy of Area Studies in China in the 21st Century—A Comparative Analysis Based on Multidisciplinary Knowledge Production

中国区域国别研究已进入学科化建设阶段,因此,描绘其知识谱系、明确其推进交叉学科建设的知识基础关系到区域国别学的长远发展。本研究选取21世纪我国世界史、外国语言文学和政治学8本代表性核心期刊的11,862篇区域国别研究论文,经过文献计量、可视化分析和内容分析后发现区域国别知识生产呈现出如下特征:行为主体地理分布集中、合作分散、传统学科依附;研究主题分布具有历史延续性,热点集中于大国国别和国际热点事件,未来重点关注全球性问题;知识生产的核心基础以传统西方学理性和描述性知识为主,缺乏自主知识体系。在此基础上,研究提出未来区域国别研究的高质量发展须探索高校学科知识供给多样化定位,合理规划学科布局;围绕交叉学科发展推进组织建设,实现有组织的科研和自主探索相协调;丰富研究单位和分析层次,促进研究主题多样化扩展;突破西方主导模式和学科知识壁垒,构建自主性、系统性的交叉学科发展新格局。

Area Studies in China have entered a stage of disciplinary construction,mapping out the knowledge lineage and clarifying the knowledge foundation for advancing interdisciplinary construction,which is crucial for the long⁃term development of Area Studies in China.This study selected 11,862 papers on Area Studies from eight representative journals of World History,Foreign Lan⁃guages and Literature,and Political Science in the 21st century.After bibliometrics,visualization analysis,and content analysis,the findings reveal the following characteristics of knowledge production in Area Studies:concentrated geographical distribution of behavioral entities,dispersed cooperation,and dependence on traditional disciplines.The distribution of research themes exhibits historical continuity,with hotspots focusing on major⁃country nationalities and international events,indicating a future emphasis on global issues.The core foundation of knowledge production is primarily based on traditional Western rational and descriptive knowledge,lacking China's autonomous knowledge system.Based on these findings,the study proposes that the high⁃quality de⁃velopment of future Area Studies in China requires exploration of diverse positioning of disciplinary knowledge supply in universi⁃ties and rational planning of disciplinary layout.It advocates promoting organizational construction around interdisciplinary devel⁃opment to achieve coordinated scientific research and autonomous exploration.Enriching research units and analysis levels are suggested to promote diversified expansion of research themes.Finally,it emphasizes the need to break through Western⁃domina⁃ted models and disciplinary knowledge barriers,constructing a new pattern of autonomous and systematic interdisciplinary devel⁃opment.
