A Discussion on the Construction of the Global Discourse Power in the Study of Chinese Environmental History——An Exploration Based on Overseas Research Related Conclusions and Analysis
Academic discourse power is one of the important components in building China's academic discourse system.Since the 1960s,scholars from overseas countries such as Europe,America,and Japan have conducted extensive research on Chinese environmental history,and their research works have gradual-ly become well-known in the domestic academic community.But through a review of overseas research on Chinese environmental history by scholars such as Rhoads Murphy,Hughes,Mark Elvin,and Japanese schol-ars,it was found that due to subjective and objective reasons such as research objectives,cultural traditions,and values,their conclusions are characterized by rough arguments,errors,self-contradiction,inaccuracies,and even arrogance and prejudice under the domination of Western-centrism.The historical environment of China should be based on the understanding formed by domestic scholars through in-depth research.Con-structing a global academic discourse power in the study of Chinese environmental history is not only an im-portant measure to deepen research on Chinese environmental history,but also a necessary response and pro-found criticism of erroneous conclusions in overseas research and even Western-centrism misconceptions.
