科技与社会研究的分析框架与经验基础

当前提高科技与社会研究的水平，有两个问题需要予以特别注意；（1）分析框架的多元化。分析框架规定着科技与社会研究的范围，制约着研究者的视野，进而影响到研究的质量。长期以来，我们所使用的分析框架单一，而且，该框架也固有许多缺陷。应当尝试各种可能的框架，在比较和综合的过程中，选择和建立新的更佳分析框架。（2）加强科技社会史的研究。对于科技与社会研究。科技社会史具有激发直觉和灵感、提供历史的检验等作用；此外，科技与社会研究和科技社会史研究以科技社会嫡史学为中介，存在一种互相制约、互为因果的关系。因此，加强科技社会史的研究，是提高科技与社会研究水平的一项重要措施。

Analytical Frame and Empirical Basis of Studies on Science and Technology and Society

To make a marked improvement in the studies on science & technology and society now,we should pay more attention to two problems:(1) to diversify the analytical frame.It is the analytical frame that stipulates the scope of the studies on science & technology and society,that restricts the researchers' field of vision,and that influences the quality of the studies.The analytical frame that we have been using for a long time is not only unitary but has its intrinsic drawback.So,it's time for us to attempt different kinds of analytical frame,to decide which is better through comparison and synthesis and to build new analytical frame ultimately.(2) to strengthen the studies on history of science & technology and society.A good share of reason rests in the intuition and inspiration that are stimulated by such studies.These studies could also provide historical inspection.Besides,there exists cause-effect relationship between these studies and the studies on science & technology and society with the medium of chronology of science & technology and society.Therefore,to strengthen the studies on history of science & technology and society is one of the most important measures to improve the studies on science & technology and society.
