Hofstede and Triands for a long time, seldom receives challenge on its very nature. The authors, however, found at least three critical mistakes in Hofstede＇s work, and raised their argument that Chinese culture is not a collectivistic one, but a ＂shi＂ culture which relies heavily on context. The split of mind is the fundamental cause of this ＂shi＂ culture.展开更多

Today, in historical retrospect, we see that we need to gain a new understanding of the importance of the semantic analysis method, appreciate the fundamental nature of contextualized semantic structure in interpreting scientific theories, and make it clear that determining and expressing reference is at the heart of the semantic analysis methodology of theoretical interpretation and that ＂two-dimensional＂ semantic analysis represents a necessary trend in current research on semantic analysis methodology. On this basis, we can reestablish the methodological position of the semantic analysis method in research on scientific realism in terms of form, content, structure and system, an achievement that will be of great strategic significance for the development of contemporary scientific realism.展开更多
