英文摘要 | The controversy of indigenization versus globalization was first brought to the attention of social researchers in 1980s. generally speaking, indigenization is a movement of self-reflection in response to the age-long domination by the Western world of the field of social research. Specifically, it is quite proper to define indigenization form a methodological stand-point. Yet, as a methodological strategy serving to challenge the overwhelmingly Western-dominated conceptualizations of social science research, indigenization is not a viable alternative to the existing formulations, which are able to bring about the sound and valid figurations of reality claimed by positivists. However, indigenization tries to form an alternative perspective by which a researcher, as an observer and a participant simultaneously, with firsthand cultural and historical experience, is able to express an empathetic understanding of the world in which he lives. It thus provides a reconstruction of the daily life and a formation of the Weltanschauung of the people studied. Far more than a methodology, indigenization presents an epistemological construction that pertains directly to a course of action leading to a cultural enterprise of popular democracy. |
