Since its first publication, Paul A. Cohen's Discovering History in China has occupied a singular place in American China scholarship. Translated into three East Asian languages, the volume has become essential to the study of China from the early nineteenth century to today.
Cohen critiques the work of leading postwar scholars and is especially adamant about not reading China through the lens of Western history. To this end, he uncovers the strong ethnocentric bias pervading the three major conceptual frameworks of American scholarship of the 1950s and 1960s: the impact-response, modernization, and imperialism approaches. In place of these, Cohen favors a "China-centered" approach in which historians understand Chinese history on its own terms, paying close attention to Chinese historical trajectories and Chinese perceptions of their problems, rather than a set of expectations derived from Western history. In an important new introduction, Cohen reflects on his fifty-year career as a historian of China and discusses major recent trends in the field. Although some of these developments challenge a narrowly conceived China-centered approach, insofar as they enable more balanced comparisons between China and the West and recast the Chinese and their history in more human, less exotic terms, they powerfully affirm the central thrust of Cohen's work.
Paul A. Cohen is Wasserman Professor of Asian Studies and History Emeritus at Wellesley College and an associate at the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies, Harvard University. His most recent book is Speaking to History: The Story of King Goujian in Twentieth-Century China.

評分這個話題的書竟然是97年齣版的,不禁讓人感嘆我們現在所處的年代已經遠不是21世紀初瞭。迴憶迴憶2000年人們在想什麼也是挺有意思的。
几点说明: 1,中国中心观属动态观点,强调历史发展中对立事物之间相互作用/相互渗透的现象。 2,历史描绘的精细化使得“区分”的重要性得到彰显,而“综合”却被低估。 3,中国中心观在美国崛起事实上采用了“内部取向”的研究策略。 研究中国近代史时一改之前将西方作为主体...
