当代中国史研究中的口述史问题：学科与方法

在当代中国史研究中,口述史是一个二重概念。它既是一套学术体系或日学科,又是一种方法论。作为学科的口述史与作为方法的口述史在运用方式上有同构性,但在研究理念上则有质的不同。有关回忆录、访谈录等是否算作口述史以及国史研究中的口述史是否可信等问题的争论,实质上是没有区分作为学科的口述史与作为方法的口述史的差别。口述史学是“记忆中的历史”,口述史料是文献资料的补充。

Dictating History Issues in the Study of Modern Chinese History: Subject and Methodology

In the study of Modem Chinese History, Dictating History is a twofold conception, which is both a set of academic system, namely a subject, and a methodology. In terms of application, both the subject and the methodology have the same isomorphism, while in terms of study ideology, they are distinct. The nature of the reliability of memoirist, interview, and the dictating history in the study of Chinese history is none of distinction between subject and methodology. The subject of Dictating History is the history in memory, and the dictating materials are complementary to documentary materials.
