摘要:

外文术语的准确翻译在各个领域的研究与实践中占有举足轻重的地位,其中“resilience”一词的准确翻译,对于推动基于生态智慧的韧性城乡人居环境建设的研究与实践具有重要作用。城市是一个最为复杂的社会—生态系统,因此在研究城乡人居环境建设生态实践时,“resilience”的准确翻译必须置于社会—生态系统语境下完成。虽然近年来受到国外社会—生态系统及其相关领域的影响,国内相关研究也开始兴起并产生了较多的研究成果,但是国内学术界对“resilience”的译法没有形成一致,而多种译法会造成认识上的混乱而不利于理论与实践的发展。为此笔者对照了英文字典中“resilience”与中文字典中恢复力、弹性与韧性的释义,对目前这三种主流的译法进行了辨析;同时解析了国外文献中该词的学术概念和内涵,并对国内社会—生态系统及其相关领域文献中该词的翻译情况进行了统计与原因分析。结果表明,“resilience”统一翻译成“韧性”最接近其学术概念内涵的主流认识。笔者认为,相对于恢复力与弹性,韧性一词包含了对系统经干扰后恢复到平衡状态观点的扬弃,彰显了作为社会—生态系统的人类世界显然不应该是在灾难后恢复到原点,而是经受灾难后变得更强大、更繁荣、更具有生命力之含义。


Abstract:

The accurate translation of foreign terminology plays an important role in the research and practice of various fields, so the accurate translation of “resilience” is of great significance to promote the research and practice of resilient urban and rural living environment based on ecological wisdom. The city is the most complex socio-ecological system, so it is necessary to put the “resilience” in the social-ecological system context when it is accurate to study the “resilience” of ecological practice of urban and rural living environment. As part of the worldwide burgeoning development of “resilience” research in socio-ecological systems, the past several years saw a rise in “resilience” research and practice in China, but Chinese academic circles had not arrived at the consensus of opinion about the translation of “resilience” terminology, and many kinds of translation vocabularies would result in the confusing understanding that was not conducive to the development of “resilience” theory and practice in China. In order to find the most suitable translation vocabulary for unification, we compare the definition of “resilience” in English dictionary with the three mainstream definitions in Chinese dictionary. After that we review the connotation of academic concept of “resilience” through international literature and do a statistic analysis and reason analysis of the translation of “resilience” through Chinese literatures in socio-ecological system and its related fields. The results show that the translation vocabulary of “韧性”is the closest to the connotation of the academic concept of “resilience”. In our view, implies a rejection of the opinion that the system would be restored to equilibrium after disturbance, and it matched with the idea that our world, as a socio-ecological system, should be stronger, more prosperous and more vitality rather than come back to the origin situation after a disaster.
