冷战前期MIT国际研究中心的中国“传播”研究
The Studies on Communications in Communist China in MIT Center forInternational Studiesin the Cold War Era

摘要 1950年代至1970年代初期MIT国际研究中心的中国传播研究随着该中心的“国际传播”研究计划而兴，是冷战前期美国政府反共心理战的直接产物。它们关心既是“极权社会”又是“发展中国家”的共产主义中国里发生的“传播”现象。在它们眼里，“传播”既是“极权社会”中国“从上至下的政治劝服”，又是“发展中国家”中国的“发展手段”或“国家整合手段”。我们在否思这些研究背后的“极权社会vs.自由社会”、“传统vs.现代”等西式二元思维框架的同时，也应反躬自省，追寻当前中国传播研究的超越西方霸权之道。
