摘要
中国地理学取得了骄人的进展,表现在科研方向的突破、对国家建设的贡献、研究手段的革新、对科学和教育的贡献、对社会的贡献等方面。但当前中国也存在基础研究薄弱、学科整合不足、学术走向迷茫、竞争能力堪忧、全球视野欠缺、地理教育错位等问题。国际地理学对科学界所确定的关键研究问题表示出更大的关注,科学界也将更加了解地理学及其视角能对科学知识做出的贡献。地理学所关切的科学问题直指今天决策者的紧迫需求。地理学家以多种方式对解决实际问题做出贡献。国际地理学的发展聚焦在:揭示复杂系统中的不平衡和动态,认识全球化(包括环境、经济、人口、政府和文化等)的潮流及其影响,建立从地方到全球的空间连续系列研究,利用包括时间系列数据在内的纵向数据进行过程比较研究,加强地理学理论、技术和研究成果对决策的影响,加强地理教育,包括努力提高公众的地理学能力,改进高等院校地理学家的训练,提高地理理解力,加强地理组织机构。
Chinese geography has acquired proud progress, representing the breakthroughs of scientific researches, contributions to national construction, innovation of research means, contributions to science and education, proffers for society and so on. Yet, such problems as weakness of basic research, insufficiency of subjects conformity, wrong path of academic tend, worry of competition capacity, deficiency of global perspective and inaccuracy of geographical education orientation, exist in recent Chinese geography. International geography is paying more attention to key study issues identified by scientific community. On the other hand, scientific community is more appreciating the contribution of geography and its perspective to scientific knowledge. The scientific issues concerned by geography orientate the urgent demands of present decision-makers. In various manners, geographers make more contribution to solving practical problems. The recent international geography focuses on the following points: to reveal the imbalance and dynamics of complicated systems; to understand the tide of globalization (including environment, economics, population, society and culture) and its impacts; to establish series research on special continuum from local to global; to take comparative studies on processes by means of vertical data including temporal series; to strengthen influence of geographical theory, technology and research fruits on decision-making; to reinforce geographical education including enhancing the geographic ability of public; to improve training of geographers in university; to advance geographical understanding; and to intensify geographic organization and institution.
