边疆人类学:何谓与何为

Anthropology of Borderlands:What is and What Can Do

20世纪中叶以降,全球化成为理解国际边疆社会与发展的时代背景和重要概念,促进了边疆研究主题的多样性与分殊化。以黑斯廷斯·唐南、T.M.威尔逊为代表提出了边疆人类学,随后一大批人类学家参与研究,旨在全球化的宏大背景中重构边疆理论。边疆人类学无论研究视角还是研究内容,都提供了新知识与新范式,多角度、全方位地拓展了边疆研究,形成了人类学视野下与众不同、斑斓多彩的边疆观。

Since the middle of the 20 th century,globalization has become a historical background and an important concept for understanding international borderland society and development,promoting the diversity and specialization of borderland research topics.Anthropology of borderlands was proposed by Hastings Donnan and T.M.Wilson,and a large group of anthropologists participated in the research,aiming to reconstruct borderland theory in the grand background of globalization.Anthropology of borderlands provides new knowledge and new paradigm both in research perspective and in research content It expands borderlands research from multiple perspectives and in an all-round way,forming a distinctive and colorful borderlands view from the perspective of anthropology.
