非洲史研究的数字转向及其启示

从20世纪中后期开始,数字史学逐渐成为国际史学界的一股新潮流,而非洲史同样也在这一时期开始了自身的数字转向。非洲史的数字化既实现了部分宝贵史料的数字化保存,也在非洲史研究方法上进行了数字化探索,还在一定程度上向公众开放。作为非洲史数字化的典范,跨大西洋奴隶贸易研究的数字化进程不仅体现了史料内容的日益丰富、信息技术的不断进步和开放程度的空前扩大,还通过数据库大联通、跨库搜索和数字同行评审体系的建立等一系列颇具开创性的成果,为整个数字史学的未来发展指出了一个可能的方向。同时,非洲史的数字化还有着与欧美发达地区数字化截然不同的特征,那就是由于殖民历史包袱和南北现实差距而带来的数字\"帝国主义\"威胁以及这其中敏感的道德议题。

The Buddhist Institute at Phnom Penh,the International Council of Women,and the Rome International Institute for Educational Cinematography: intersections of internationalism and imperialism, 1931–1934

This article explores the intersection of aspects of imperialism and internationalism in discussion of cinematography at the League of Nations, at the International Council of Women (ICW), and as they played out in the imperial, national and local flows around educational cinematography in the work of Suzanne Karpelès at the Institute of Buddhist Studies in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. It focuses on the 1931 ICW cinematograph conference organised by Laura Dreyfus-Barney at the League’s Rome International Institute for Educational Cinematography (IIEC) and on the IIEC’s 1934 cinematography congress, when Dreyfus-Barney fed Karpelès’ ideas about educational film into the congress. The article looks at the notion of rapprochement (of nations) within internationalism as this became articulated at both the League and the ICW with notions about mentalities within imperialism. It also traces the intersection of rapprochement and mentalities in Karpelès’ promotion of educational cinematography from her base in Phnom Penh. The article concludes that various elements around the cinematic at the League, the ICW and at Phnom Penh illustrate articulations of internationalism in the domains of nationalism and imperialism as well as articulations of the national and imperial in the domain of the international.     

日据大连时期的奴化教育实质

日据大连40年,从教育方针到教育行政机构,从校规校纪到课程设置,从教师培训到教师配备,从教材编写到教研会活动,均以“奴化”二字为中心。其实质就是毒化大连人民的精神,使之丧失民族自尊,当“天皇”的“顺民”,以达到长期奴役大连人民,乃至全中国人民的目的。     

经济学帝国主义：学科扩张中的冲突与藕合

自20世纪50年代以来,社会科学中出现了经济学向其它社会科学入侵并强力进行学科边界扩张的经济学帝国主义现象,这一改传统社会科学分工路径,由细化转向整合。同时打破了社会科学研究中传统的分工领域。造成被入侵学科的边缘化。当然在这一过程中,被入侵学科发出回应,奋力反击。在这种学科间的冲突中,不同的社会科学研究方法发生藕合,在某种程度上推动了当代社会科学的发展。

Esoteric Imperialism: The Solomonic-Theurgic Mystique of John Dee’s British Empire

The life and works of the English Renaissance polymath John Dee (1527–1609) have been traditionally treated by scholarship in the context of the history of philosophy and science. Only in recent decades have two of John Dee’s most prominent and controversial endeavors - (1) his political philosophy and advocacy of a British Empire (a term he is credited with coining), and (2) his long-standing practice of angelic magic - been reconstructed in their significance to Dee’s worldview. This paper highlights how Dee’s visions of a British Empire and his angelic rituals were not only major landmarks in his corpus, but were intimately interconnected in Dee’s ideology of “Cosmopolitics.” Dee’s “esoteric imperialism” is situated in the context of his intellectual, textual, and political environment, and his angelic magic is identified as fitting within the medieval Solomonic current. It is argued that both ideological trends coalesced in Dee’s vision of an angelic-inspired British Empire.     

Métissage on the Airwaves: Toward a Cultural History of Broadcasting in French Colonial Algeria, 1930–1936

This article explores the methodological challenges and possibilities of writing a cultural history of broadcasting in French colonial Algeria during the tumultuous decades between the two world wars. In a diverse, multi-ethnic colonial society, how can historians and media scholars evaluate audience reception? What meanings did radio broadcasting acquire in the colonial context? To answer these questions, this article considers the controversies surrounding two culturally hybrid broadcasts produced by Radio-Algiers during the 1930s. A careful examination of the remaining historical record concerning these broadcasts, from newspaper accounts to archival sources, exposes the cultural fluidity that typified everyday colonial life and reveals how radio broadcasting politicized music and oral language in novel ways. Broadcasting—as a purely sonic medium—challenged the classificatory mechanisms of the French colonial state and the racial and ethnic boundaries that undergirded colonial society. In consequence, historical memories of Radio-Algiers and its role during the waning years of the French empire deny the sonic cultural hybridity that flourished over the interwar airwaves.
