Rebuilding the coordinates and restarting:Approaches and Critical Issues of the Paradigm Conversion of Journalism Study
Journalism studies faces great challenges in terms of cognitive premises,experiential grounding,knowledge system,and the logic of theory.These challenges accumulated in the pre-Internet era reflected the crisis of the paradigm of journalism study.There are complicated approaches to accelerate the paradigm innovation,which contains exploring questions oriented to practice,obtaining abstract theories and stable concept system based on questions,complicating the expansion of knowledge,ensuring the efficiency and effect of knowledge expansion by updating the epistemology and methodology,and achieving a reflective and practical knowledge system through axiology.As a systematic project,paradigm innovation needs to solve five key issues.The first issue is to explore and rewrite the history of journalism theory according to the paradigm.The second one is conceptualizing and problematizing the new phenomena of journalism in the Internet era.The third issue is promoting the spectral serialization exploration from the micro problems to the macro construction.The remaining issues are improving the conscious standardization and innovation of epistemology and methodology and establishing consensus in multiple research paths.The objective of paradigm innovation of journalism study is not only to put forward some theoretical structure of knowledge,but also to build an academic ecology of journalism study which rooted in the Chinese journalistic practice and Chinese academic tradition,has consensus on theories and methods,and can learn from each other on specific viewpoints.
