出版生态学初探

健康的出版生态对出版业的可持续发展具有十分重要的意义。本文从分析出版生态入手,提出了出版生态学的概念,认为出版生态学就是研究出版媒介与其环境,以及互为环境的出版媒介之间相互作用规律和机理的科学。探讨了出版生态学的相关学科和分支学科,以及出版生态学的研究方法。提出了出版生态学应当从个体、种群、群落和生态系统的层次研究出版生态规律,而以出版生态系统为研究重点,探索优化出版生态系统、保护出版生态平衡、保证出版业可持续发展的途径。

A Study on Publishing Ecology

A healthy publishing environment is important to ensure the sustainable development of publishing industry. First, we put forward the concept of publishing ecology, which was defined as the science to study the interaction law and mechanism between publishing medium and its environment. Then, we discussed the related subject and branch subject of publishing ecology and its research technique. Finally, we pointed out that the ecological law of publishing ecology should be studied from all its different layers, i.e. the individual publishing media, the publishing population, the publishing community, and the publishing ecosystem, and the focus should be placed on publishing ecosystem for the purpose of exploring some approaches to improve publishing ecosystem, to protect publishing ecological balance, and to ensure the sustainable development of the publishing industry.
