Monograph:Comparison and Prospect of Chinese and American Academic Systems of Social Sciences
The reform of academic evaluation system is an important path to promoting the development of high academic quality,which can refer to foreign advanced experiences.In the academic sys-tem of social sciences,the United States has developed a heavyweight monograph tradition based on three or four years of doctoral dissertations in addition to six or seven years of follow-up resear-ches.Although there are some problems such as focusing more on subjective theory than objective empirical research or laying particular stress on idealized and logically consistent theoretical mod-els,it has established its core position in the international academic field of social sciences.There exist deep contradictions in practical operation in China's doctoral dissertation system,it has not yet established a heavyweight monograph tradition comparable to that of the United States,as a re-sult,China's own scholarship is limited to a secondary level.The current China's academic sys-tem of social sciences is in urgent need of reform,it is necessary to encourage on the national level monographs of heavyweight empirical researches and new-type theories of social sciences in ac-cordance with China's reality to build a monograph system with Chinese subjectivity and cogni-tion.
