The Introduction of Western Communication Theory and the Construction of Independent Knowledge System in Chinese Communication Studies:Isolates,Sets,and Patterns
Western communication theory has come to China for 46 years.Since Wilbur Schramm visited China,empiricism and critical theory have become two major parallel isolates and sets in the communication studies of China in the 20th century.Since the 21st century,China has been swarming with a large number of Western communication theoretical isolates.This study is based on an analytical framework of isolates,sets,and patterns,and finds that the key to determining an independent knowledge system is the knowledge patterns rather than knowledge isolates.The independent knowledge system of communication studies in China is to explain the isolates of communication both domestically and internationally using our own knowledge patterns.Using Western knowledge patterns to explain Chinese isolates merely strengthens the Western theoretical system,making it easy to embark on a de facto path that goes completely opposite to the construction of independent knowledge systems in China.
