摘要： 当下中国政治科学研究身在何处，应何去何从？这是在推进中国政治学自主知识体系建设中政治学人普遍关注的焦点问题。为此，本刊组织论坛，从不同的层面和视角检视国内政治科学研究所取得的成就及其面临的挑战与不足，讨论其多元走向。六篇文章对中国政治科学研究现有处境尤其是挑战的反思，表明中国政治科学研究之困境部分源于人们对科学方法的理解与训练偏差，部分源于学科生态的结构性挑战。其未来发展，有赖于共同体内部形成尊重研究方法的规范性与严谨性的共同信念，并在夯实基础、聚焦真问题和营造良性生态的合力之下行稳致远，真正实现贡献普遍知识、推进政治学自主知识体系建设的学术使命。

Abstract: After more than 40 years of sustained efforts by generations of scholars, where does Chinese political science research currently stand, and where should it go? This is a focal question of widespread concern among political scientists in the process of advancing the construction of an independent knowledge system for Chinese political science. To this end, our journal has organized a forum to examine the achievements, challenges, and shortcomings of domestic political science research from different levels and perspectives, and to discuss its diverse developmental directions.
