从某种意义上讲,丝路学既是文明交往学,也是国际关系学,更是全球治理学。自1877年以来,尽管丝路学一直聚焦“中国与世界关系”这一核心议题,但其界定概念、构建理论、阐释框架、研究方法等均带有西方学术殖民主义的历史烙印并受到西方学术霸权主义的现实影响,从而影响了丝路学的理论建构,并弱化了其现实阐释力。近年来,西方对 “一带一路”的分歧性认知,又折射出丝路学已然进入话语权博弈新阶段的现实。通过加强基础理论研究、加强深度案例研究、加强结伴走丝路做学问意识等方式来构建一带一路学,是振兴中国丝路学的切实路径。
In some sense,the Silk Road Studies is supported by three major theories,namely,Civilization Communication theory,International Relations theory,and Global Governance theory. The Silk Road Studies has always focused on the core issue of “China-World Relations” since 1877,however,its concept definition,theoretical construction,interpretation framework,and research methods all have the historical imprint and realistic influence of “colonialism” and “hegemonism”from the western academia. The three major theories affected the theoretical construction of Silk Road Studies and weakens its realistic interpretation due to the western hegemonism such as the supremacy of the West,the conflict of civilizations,the zero-sum game,the westernization governance,and etc. In recent years,the Western divergent cognition of the “Belt and Road” has reflected the fact that Silk Road Studies has entered the new stage of discourse rights competition. Therefore,it is of great urgency for the Chinese scholars to construct the Belt and Road Studies as a pragmatic approach to the vitalization of China's Silk Road Studies under the guidance of the principle of academic innovation through strengthening the basic theory study,deep case study and pragmatic research with partnerships.
