摘    要:伴随着“文化转向”与“再物质化”思潮的出现,物质地理学已经成为西方社会文化地理研究中新兴且活跃的研究分支之一,而追踪物质(following the things)是物质地理学中重要的方法论视角,它强调人文地理学所重视的“流动性”,通过追踪特定物质在流动过程中物质性的变化以及能动性,揭示物质流动中的社会关系与文化意义。论文通过梳理和分析西方学界中物质地理学的相关文献,阐述了近年来的研究进展,同时指出现阶段在追踪物质视角下该领域的主要议题为:物质的象征研究、物质与认同研究、生产与消费研究以及权力博弈与协商研究等内容。最后,论文归纳总结了当下物质地理学存在的研究局限与空白,展望了未来中国物质地理学研究可进一步探索的话题与方向,以期打开未来中国与西方国家物质地理学的对话窗口。

关 键 词:物质地理学  追踪物质  流动性  社会生活  地方  实践

Abstract:With the trend of "cultural turn" and "material turn", material geography has become one of the most active and burgeoning areas in social and cultural geography. Cultural geographers have turned their interests again to the material culture using an interdisciplinary perspective. Material geography has inherited the focus on humans and endeavored to get rid of the shadow of Fetishism since the "cultural turn". Its research focuses on the materiality, knowledge production, cultural identity, and social power relationship behind the material. Material geography's ontology, epistemology, and methodology do their revolution in response. For instance, "following the things" as a methodological perspective is brought up uniquely. To be specific, mobility is highly emphasized in the perspective of "following the things" because it sheds light on the human-place relations and different sociocultural contexts during the flow of things. Therefore, it is of great significance to do research on the material. In addition, considering the goal of completing the process of building a moderately well-off society in all aspects by 2020, we need to focus more on material's mobility and social value production in China in order to achieve great national development. However, there exist only a few reviews on material geography, and there is no review concentrating on mobility in material geography in China. In order to fill the gap, in this article we reviewed the history, necessities, and tendencies of the material geography research in the Western discourse, illustrating how the material geography studies achieve the transformation from "surface" material studies to representation studies, then to more-than representation studies. We also identified four main research themes in this area: 1) the symbolic meanings of material; 2) linking material and people's identities; 3) material production and consumption; and 4) the power game and negotiation behind the material. This article illustrated that material geography puts the sociocultural phenomenon into the wider political, economic, and cultural system to discuss, and deploys more creative and comprehensive methods to figure out what traditional methods fail to do. Finally, the article summed up the limitations of these studies and listed some possibilities for further research in China: international game and negotiation of power, construction and re-construction of commodity networks, and daily life geography. In short, our research seeks to enrich the material geography research in human geography in China and open the academic conversation with the Western world.
Keywords:material geography  following the things  mobility  social life  place  practice
