摘要

本文将Bruce Lincoln的《苹果和橙子》与Oliver Freiberger的《思考比较》进行了比较，并将这些作品的经验教训应用到我自己在宗教和种族领域的研究中。关注两位作者对定义和理论之间的关系，以及立场和范围的关注，导致我困惑于“宗教”和“种族”的类别是否可以在不陷入同义反复的世界的情况下进行有益的比较。然而，他们共同强调比较是一种启发式企业，这可能为通过比较方法在这一研究领域提出有用的主张开辟了一条道路。

The Comparative Method in the Study of Religion and Race: a Reflection on Lincoln and Freiberger

This essay compares Bruce Lincoln’s Apples and Oranges with Oliver Freiberger’s Considering Comparison and applies lessons derived from these works to my own research in the fields of religion and race. Attention to both authors’ concerns with the relationship between definitions and theories, as well as positionality and scope, result in my confusion as to whether the categories of “religion” and “race” can be profitably compared without being trapped in a world of tautology. Yet their shared emphases on comparison as a heuristic enterprise may open a path for making useful claims in this area of research by means of comparative method.

期刊介绍： Method & Theory in the Study of Religion publishes articles, notes, book reviews and letters which explicitly address the problems of methodology and theory in the academic study of religion. This includes such traditional points of departure as history, philosophy, anthropology and sociology, but also the natural sciences, and such newer disciplinary approaches as feminist theory and studies. Method & Theory in the Study of Religion also concentrates on the critical analysis of theoretical problems prominent in the study of religion.
