教育社会学研究中的本土方法论

On the National Methods in the Research on Educational Sociology

教育社会学研究必须坚持本土方法,即该研究必须建立于对所研究的民族文化理解与尊重的基础上,应该针对研究对象的生存环境、社会背景及文化传统而展开。教育社会学研究的本土方法的理论基础有历史唯物主义哲学、文化人类学、社会学及社会心理学,其基本内容包括实验法、案例分析法及实地调查法等主要方法。在运用本土方法时要注意处理好本土化与国际化的关系、相关的社会伦理学问题以及确立科学精神,遵循科学研究的客观态度。

National methods emphasize the cultural influence on individuals during the research of social science. To education, they emphasize the prerequisite function of national culture on educating the target. The native methods in the research of sociology of education base theoretically on the philosophy of historical materialism, cultural anthropology, sociology and social psychology. They mainly contain experimentation method, case-studying method and investigating method. We should pay attention to the relationship between national and international, the related problems of ethics and the establishment of science spirit, when we study the sociology of education by these methods. All in all, to study the sociology of education, we must understand and respect the national culture.
