舞蹈刊物的责任与学术精神

Editorial Discussion

Responsibility and Academic Spirit of Dance Journals

编者按 舞蹈刊物属于社会媒体或媒介这一复杂变动有机体的组成部分。明确责任担当和学术精神是一切刊物生存与发展的前提和精神支柱。当代中国舞蹈正式公开发行的专业刊物屈指可数，弥足珍贵，在20世纪80至90年代的鼎盛时期只有《舞蹈》《北京舞蹈学院学报》《舞蹈论丛》《舞蹈艺术》（丛刊）四家，目前仅存《舞蹈》和《北京舞蹈学院学报》两家。它们和以《舞蹈研究》为代表的中国舞蹈家协会下属的各省、市、自治区的分会主办的数十家内部刊物一起，多年来为中华民族舞蹈文化的传播、中国舞蹈学科建设、中外舞蹈文化交流做出了重要的贡献。对刊物的责任与学术精神提出讨论，是基于信息时代，媒体或媒介之于人类生存与发展承担越来越多的功能，担纲愈来愈重要的角色；亦在于，商品经济大潮和欲望的冲击，致使学界一些人忘却自身的角色和社会的责任，学术道德沦丧，学术精神丧失，致使刊物不自觉地负载了某些精神垃圾，记录了不真实的历史，甚至是历史的谎言，或者滋生了平庸的文化，腐蚀了国民的精神……因而，年轻且因“稀”而贵的舞蹈刊物及其舞蹈学界不得不思考：如何抵抗侵蚀，获得强有力的抵抗力和免疫力？在《当代舞蹈艺术研究》创刊之际，为汲取先进的办刊经验，避免不良学风的侵袭，思考舞蹈刊物与学术建设的现状及其发展方向，本刊特邀中国目前仅有的三家正式公开发行的舞蹈专业杂志——《舞蹈》《北京舞蹈学院学报》《当代舞蹈艺术研究》的现任或部分前任主编，组织了这场笔会，讨论关于“舞蹈刊物的责任与学术精神”的问题。

The dance journal is a component of the media in society,which is a complex and changing organism. Clear responsibility and academic spirit are the premises and spiritual support for the publication and development of dance journals, and also for all the other journals. There are very few yet precious of fi cially published academic dance journals in contemporary China. During its heyday from 1980s to 1990s, there were four dance journals,Dance,Journal of Beijing Dance Academy,Journal of Dance Essays, andDance Art(series). Today, onlyDanceandJournal of Beijing Dance Academyare still in publication.These two journals, among tens of internal journals, notablyDance Study, published by the Chinese Dancers Association branches in different provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions, have made great contributions to the dissemination of Chinese national dance culture, the construction of Chinese dance discipline and the cultural exchange of Chinese and foreign dance for many years.

The discussions on the responsibility and academic spirit of the dance journals are based on the reality of this age of information that media is performing increasingly more functions, and playing a role of growing importance in human’s life and development. Also, affected by the tides of commercial economy and excessive desire, a few people in academia forgot their roles and social responsibility, and lost the academic ethnics and spirit. Inevitably, dance journals were therefore loaded with intellectual trash, false history,and even lie on history, producing mediocre culture and corroding people’s mind… So, the young, rare and precious dance journals and the dance academia must re fl ect on the following issues: how to fi ght the erosion and obtain strong resistance and immunity? Upon the inception ofJournal of Contemporary Research in Dance, to learn advanced experiences of journal management, to avoid negative in fl uences from unsound academic styles, and to re fl ect the current status and development of the dance journals and academic construction, our journal invited present and previous editor-in-chiefs fromDance,Journal of Beijing Dance AcademyandJournal of Contemporary Research in Dance,the only three professional dance journals that are currently in of fi cial publication, to join the symposium and discuss the issue of “the responsibility and academic spirit of dance journals”.
