초록

This study examines 'Area Studies' in terms of its relative importance to Social Science since the end of World War II. Two major questions are addressed here: when did Area Studies emerge as dominant in academic fields and how did it compare with other disciplines in relative scientific tradition. The tension between area studies and disciplinary social science is not new. Discipline-oriented scholars place emphasis on the development of general theoretical insights. They have for many years argued that it is not scientific in the work of area specialists. Area Studies usually follow a configurative approach which prevails because of the intellectual traditions characterizing the core academic disciplines. Nevertheless, some theorizing about Area Studies have been undertaken throughout the post World War II period. The examples have been discussed under the category of the interdisciplinary and integrated approach. I consider this study to be a first step toward the development of a systematic approach that might explain what 'Area Studies' is and how its 'Disciplinity' can be conceptualized. It needs to follow up on our effort to concentrate on improving theories of Area Studies. It will gradually fill an important void both within the discipline itself and for the academic discipline specialization.

Abstract

This study examines 'Area Studies' in terms of its relative importance to Social Science since the end of World War II. Two major questions are addressed here: when did Area Studies emerge as dominant in academic fields and how did it compare with other disciplines in relative scientific tradition. The tension between area studies and disciplinary social science is not new. Discipline-oriented scholars place emphasis on the development of general theoretical insights. They have for many years argued that it is not scientific in the work of area specialists. Area Studies usually follow a configurative approach which prevails because of the intellectual traditions characterizing the core academic disciplines. Nevertheless, some theorizing about Area Studies have been undertaken throughout the post World War II period. The examples have been discussed under the category of the interdisciplinary and integrated approach. I consider this study to be a first step toward the development of a systematic approach that might explain what 'Area Studies' is and how its 'Disciplinity' can be conceptualized. It needs to follow up on our effort to concentrate on improving theories of Area Studies. It will gradually fill an important void both within the discipline itself and for the academic discipline specialization.
