Commentary on ‘Opportunities and Challenges of Engaged Indigenous Scholarship’ (Van de Ven, Meyer, & Jing, 2018)
这篇评论讨论了《管理组织评论》期刊自2005年创刊以来倡导的深度情境化研究,并评述了Van de Ven等人提出的“参与式本土学术”概念,即让当地情境主导研究全过程。
The mission of Management and Organization Review , founded in 2005, is to publish research about Chinese management and organizations, foreign organizations operating in China, or Chinese firms operating globally. The aspiration is to develop knowledge that is unique to China as well as universal knowledge that may transcend China. Articulated in the first editorial published in the inaugural issue of MOR (2005) and further elaborated in a second editorial (Tsui, 2006), the question of contextualization is framed, discussing the role of context in the choices of the research question, theory, measurement, and research design. The idea of ‘engaged indigenous research’ by Van de Ven, Meyer, and Jing (2018) describes the highest level of contextualization, with the local context serving as the primary factor guiding all the decisions of a research project. Tsui (2007: 1353) refers to it as ‘deep contextualization’.
