This article critically traces the development of science communication in China in the past 30 years. While confirming the tremendous progress Chinese science communicators have achieved in popularising science, it argues that the deficit model-based popularisation effort cannot meet the diversifying demands on science in Chinese society. Citing both recent science and technology controversies and active public participation in science pilot initiatives in China, this article concludes that science communication efforts in the country must be focused on constructive dialogues and public engagement with science.
本文批判性地追溯了中国过去30年科学传播的发展历程。在肯定中国科学传播者在科学普及方面取得巨大进步的同时,本文认为基于缺失模型的普及努力无法满足中国社会对科学日益多样化的需求。通过引用近期的科技争议以及公众在中国科学试点倡议中的积极参与,本文得出结论,中国的科学传播工作必须聚焦于建设性对话以及公众对科学的参与。
