我的“Foundational Paradigms of Social Sciences”（“社会科学的基础范式”）的终于在社会科学哲学领域中的旗舰杂志《社会科学哲学杂志》（Philosophy of the Social Sciences）的2011年的6月号（第41卷第2期）上正式刊行了。正如我以前说过的那样，这篇文章是我最近出版的三个最重要的工作之一。

我是第一位在这一社会科学哲学旗舰杂志上发表文章的中国大陆学者。

文章一出版就成为该杂志最近最受关注的文章（most read article）。

我和我原来在南洋理工大学的同事龙世瑞（Joey S. R. Long）合作的文章“America’s Military Interventionism: A Social Evolutionary Interpretation （美国的军事干涉主义：一个社会进化的诠释）”的在线版（on-line first）已经在European Journal of International Relations （欧洲国际关系杂志，EJIR）上在线发表。

这篇文章的方法是一个定性和定量方法的结合。文章是我努力学习定量方法的第一个尝试。这也是我运用社会进化范式的第三篇的实证性理论文章。

文章的中文版正在被翻译出来。

Abstract

By synthesizing material forces with ideational forces more organically via a social evolutionary approach, we advance a deeper understanding about post-WWII American military interventionism. We argue that post-WWII American military interventionism—that is, American elites’ and public’s support for America’s military interventions abroad—cannot be understood with ideational or psychological forces alone. Rather, two crucial material variables, namely geography and aggregate power amplified by superior technological prowess, are indispensable for understanding the propensity for the United States to intervene militarily abroad. These two factors have powerfully shielded American elites and public from the horrendous devastation of war. As a result, compared to their counterparts in other major states, American citizens and elite have tended to be less repelled by the prospect of war. The outcome is that since World War II the United States has been far more active in military interventions overseas than other major states.
