德国毕勒费尔得大学发展社会学研究中心
(Sociology of Development Research Centre, University of Bielefeld, Germany)
一、历史沿革
毕勒费尔得大学的发展社会学研究中心(SDRC)创立於1974年,附属於社会学院之下,是该学院七十年代学术发展重点之一,以期增进德国对当代亚、非、拉丁美洲社会、政治与经济的了解。首任中心主任是在东南亚研究领域颇富盛名的Dr. Hans-Dieter Evers(也是现任的主任), 当时Dr. Evers是新加坡国立大学社会学系系主任,应社会系之聘回到德国後即积极充实中心的软、硬体设备。该研究中心主要以研究、教学(post-graduate training)为主,培养德国与其他国家的亚、非、拉丁美洲研究人才。自1974以来,东南亚研究在Prof. Evers的积极推动下,已累积丰富的研究成果,超过六十本的博士论文,285篇研究论文,是德国当代东南亚研究的重镇。非洲研究则自1987年以来,在Prof. Guenther Schlee与Prof. Gudrun Lachenmann努力下,也逐渐成为德国非洲研究的主力。唯拉丁美洲研究因为人事的更迭,趋於停滞的状态,颇为可惜。本文主要介绍SDRC的东南亚研究历程与进况。
