摘要
本文对美国哈佛大学著名学者、现代医学人类学创始人凯博文教授的学术成就作了综述,特别偏重于其理论关怀。凯博文从1973年开始其学术生涯,确立了医学人类学的基本研究方向。他在第一本民族志著作《文化语境下的病人与医生》中提出了跨文化医学比较研究的一些基本理论,特别是提出了"躯体化"理论。在《苦痛与疾病的社会根源》中,他进一步发展了"躯体化"理论,提出了"道德主体"概念。在随后的学术工作中,他集中于对"社会苦难"和"道德经验"的理论探讨,尤其在《道德的重量》一书中。对这些问题的思考以及个人的经历,使凯博文越来越关注照护问题。《对社会的激情》和《照护》两本书展现了他近期的思考,其中呈现出他对现代社会科学价值中立原则的批判,以及寻求一种新的社会科学的努力。对社会苦难的主动介入和照护,正是这种新社会科学的应有之义。
The essay is a description of academic achievements of Arthur Kleinman,a famous Harvard scholar and founder of modern medical anthropology,with focus on his theoretical concerns.Kleinman began his academic career in 1973 and set the fundmental directions for medical anthropology.In Patients and Healers in the Context of Culture,his first ethnographic work,he elaborated some basic theories for cross-culturally comparative studies of medicines,especially the“somatisation”theory.In Social Origins of Distress and Disease,he developed the theory further and conceptualised the“moral subject”.His subsequent work focused on theoretical explorations in“social sufferings”and“moral experiences”,which were reflected in The Weight of the World.Thinking of the issues and his experiences lead his increasing attention to caregiving.A Passion for Society and The Soul of Care show his recent considerations,including his critique of the value-neutral principle in modern social sciences and his efforts for a new social science.Active engagement in social distress and caregiving are necessary meaning in the science.
