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
这本书的封面有一张插图，让我印象深刻。那是一个世界地图的东半球平面图，中国赫然在图画的中间（大约），而图画四周是几个电脑制成的大箭头、小箭头、粗箭头和细箭头，它们的尖端都指向了中国的腹地（确切的讲，我觉得它们指向的是东南亚海域，但是作图者的原本的想法肯定是...
评分「五十年代和六十年代美国史家解释鸦片战争（1839-1842）到义和团起义（1899-1900）这段历史时，在很大程度上借助了‘西方冲击’与‘中国回应’这两个概念。这一理论框架所依据的前提假设是：就19世纪的大部分情况而言，左右中国历史的最重要影响是与西方的对抗。这种提法又意...

评分“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...
评分近日读柯文的这本书（02年增订本），有很多并不成系统的想法，其中一些是强化了过去的看法，另外一些则是新的。该书系统批判总结了美国上个世纪80年代之前的中国史研究，包括冲击——回应模式、传统——近代模式以及帝国主义模式，我无意在这重复归纳作者的观点，也没那个全...

评分作者自己也承认完全批判西方视角太过偏激。实际上我觉得他自我批判得还不够，西方视角哪仅仅是“另一视角，”所谓的中国本土视角有吗？除了马克思那一套西方的，本土是没有所谓史观的，大多都在堆砌材料。中国传统的史学，无非帝王将相，品评人物，叹叹兴亡。以今天本土史家的刻苦程度和视野范围，追赶西方学者还来不及，哪里轮的上真正形成中国自己的史学流派。
