中国基督教大学本土化探析

摘要

As a carrier of modern knowledge and western culture, Christian universities began these indigenization course as soon as they appeared in China. The Christian universities＇ indigenization were shown in campus culture, teaching and scientific research, teaching staff, university management, service object and so on. The main causes of the Christian universities＇ indigenization were the rise of Chinese nationalism, the de- mand of Chinese society, the change of Christian church, and the demand of outlay. The Christian universities＇ indigenization promoted development of Chinese higher education, training of modernization enterprise talent, and culture exchange of China-West. The indigenization manifests a kind of complex, two-side interactive relation between embedding from the outside and breeding from the inside%作为近代知识和西方文化载体的基督教大学在中国出现后就开始了本土化历程。基督教大学在中国的本土化表现在校园文化、教学科研、师资队伍、学校管理、服务对象等方面。中国基督教大学本土化的主要原因是由于中国民族主义的兴起，中国社会的客观需要，基督教教会内部的变化以及办学经费的需要。中国基督教大学本土化促进了中国高等教育的发展，促进了中国近代化人才的培养，促进了中西文化交流。这种本土化体现了外部嵌入和内部培育之间复杂的双向互动关系。
