具体描述
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.

读后感
“他们无法表述自己；他们必须被别人表述。”作为一个中国人读了一个美国历史学家写得《在中国发现历史——中国中心观在美国的兴起》，上面那句话最先蹦入我的脑海中。这句话出自马克思的《路易波拿巴的雾月十八》，萨义德将其引用，放在自己《东方学》一书的开头。马克思似乎...
评分几点说明： 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...
评分一本系统反思美国的中国史研究特别是中国近代史研究的书，作者在批评了冲击—回应模式、现代化模式和帝国主义模式之后，提出应该改变这三种模式所共有的缺陷，就是西方中心观的中国史研究，而应该采取中国中心观。换言之，从“局外人”的视角向“局内人”转变。 先放下中国中心...
