摘要:

当前世界正面临“百年未有之大变局”,在此背景下政治地理学的发展日益受到关注。得益于得天独厚的发展环境和旺盛的学科需求,政治地理学在中国近年再度复兴,在本土化概念创新、多源研究数据和方法拓展等方面取得一系列显见的成果。另一方面,学科发展亟待跨越的一些“门槛”也日益显现,如共识核心概念缺乏、学科范式不统一、多尺度研究视角不足等,制约了其学术研究与政策应用的深入互动。在此背景下,本文基于对中国政治地理学发展动态的梳理,探讨了制约学科发展的若干基本问题,指出目前的当务之急是加强多/跨尺度研究、政策研究、区域研究,加强东西方思想交流,以此推动知识导向的批判性研究、实证主义的学术研究和实用主义的政策研究相辅相成的知识生产格局形成,从而构建起求真务实、经世致用的东方政治地理学特色,为全球治理和国家长治久安做出更大贡献。

Abstract:

At present, the world is undergoing "profound changes unseen in a century", which bring great challenges to human security and development. The world is calling for the voice of political geography. Thanks to the unique development environment and strong discipline demand, political geography has been revived in China in recent years. A series of remarkable achievements have been made in terms of localized concept innovation, multi-source research data and method expansion, etc. On the other hand, some "thresholds" that need to be overcome in the development of the discipline have also become increasingly obvious. For example, the lack of consensus core concepts, the disunity of disciplinary paradigms, and the insufficiency of multi-scale research perspectives restrict the in-depth interaction between political geography academic research and policy application. In this context, based on the review of the development of Chinese political geography over these years, this paper discusses the basic problems that restrict the development of Chinese political geography, and puts forward four suggestions at present: (1) augmenting multi-scalar and cross-scalar researches; (2) strengthening policy researches for practical application based on substantial theoretical research achievements; (3) attaching more importance to regional studies; (4) promoting dialogues among civilizations and exchanges of thoughts on political geography between the East and the West. Only by forming three research directions: knowledge-oriented critical research, positivist academic research and pragmatic policy research, can we achieve a breakthrough in Chinese political geography and build a peaceful, realistic, and pragmatic Oriental political geography, which will bring a new landscape toward global governance in the new era.
