摘要:

近代以来，随着资本主义扩张及现代大学和学科制度的全球传播，西方社会科学逐渐占据知识生产中心，形成了以西方为核心、非西方为边缘的知识－权力结构。在此背景下，我国高等教育研究长期依赖西方概念、理论和方法。尽管这些资源具有重要启发意义，但若缺乏本土化转换，便难以有效解释中国高等教育的制度逻辑、文化根基、历史使命和现行实践。本文认为，高等教育研究的“落地落实”，关键不在于拒斥或照搬西方理论，而在于立足中国实践，形成自主的问题意识、概念体系、理论框架、方法路径和评价标准。尤其应重视标识性概念提炼，以概念创新推动理论和知识体系创新。唯有从“用西方理论解释中国经验”转向“以中国经验生成理论并开展平等对话”，中国高等教育研究才能实现知识自主与现实关怀的统一。

Abstract:

Since the modern era, with the expansion of capitalism and the global spread of modern university and disciplinary systems, Western social sciences have gradually occupied the center of knowledge production,forming a knowledge-power structure with the West at the core and the non-West at the periphery. Against this background, higher education research in China has long drawn on Western concepts, theories, and methods.Although these resources are intellectually valuable, without localized transformation they cannot effectively explain the institutional logic, cultural foundations, historical mission, and practical realities of Chinese higher education. This article argues that the key to grounding higher education research in practice does not lie in rejecting or copying Western theories, but in building autonomous research questions, conceptual systems,theoretical frameworks, methodological approaches, and evaluative standards based on Chinese practice. In particular, it emphasizes the need to refine distinctive concepts and use conceptual innovation to promote theoretical and knowledge-system innovation. Only by shifting from u“sing Western theories to explain Chinese experience” to g“enerating theory from Chinese experience and engaging in equal dialogue” can higher education research in China achieve the unity of knowledge autonomy and practical concern.
