華人傳播研究：研究取向、辯論、共識與研究前提

Chinese Communication Research: Research Approaches, Debates, Consensus, and the Development of Theoretical Assumptions

本文旨對華人傳播研究之研究取向、辯論、共識與前瞻，提出初探性論述。論文首先對過去二、三十年間，以華人傳播主題之研究論文進行質性回顧與探討，關注點聚焦於整理四個研究取向的主要論述與相關批判，爾後探討不同研究取向間的辯論與共識，最後提出華人傳播研究在世界觀、理論預設與研究方法上所須關照的問題。

This paper reviews articles regarding Chinese communication studies that have been published in the past two to three decades. The goals of the paper include: (1) exploring the similarities and differences among the main theoretical approaches concerning Chinese communication research; (2) investigating the debates and common ground between and among the examined theoretical perspectives; and (3) based upon the commonalities discovered among the different perspectives, developing theoretical assumptions that would have to be borne in mind when conducting research on Chinese communication.
