中亚与中亚研究

迄今为止,国内外学者对“中亚”所指的范围见仁见智,各说不一。2002年出版的《中亚文明史》一书认为:“中亚”包括今位于阿富汗、巴基斯坦及前苏联中亚五个加盟共和国境内的各个地区。这是对“中亚”的一种广义的解释;我国现在讲的“中亚”指哈萨克斯坦、乌兹别克斯坦、土库曼斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦、塔吉克斯坦五国,其内陆区域范围是:西到里海和伏尔加河,东到中国的边界,北到咸海与额尔齐斯河的分水岭,并延伸至西伯利亚大草原的南部,南到伊朗、阿富汗的边界。我国与中亚各族人民自古以来就有着传统的友好往来,是最早研究中亚地区的国家,并取得显著的研究成果。

Central-Asia and the Central-Asia Studies

Up to now, there has been a paradox about the definition of "Central-Asia". The book "History of the Central-Asia Civilization", published in 2002, says that the region of Central-Asia includes Afghanistan, Pakistan and the territory of the five join-in republic countries of the former Soviet Union. This is a broad explanation of the term "Central-Asia". The term "Central|Asia" in China is: this region includes: Lira and Voltga River in the west, the border of China in the east, the watershed of Salty Sea and Ergis River in the north and stretches to the south of Siberia llano, the border between Iran and Afghanistan as well as the territory of the five countries in the south. China has a tradition communication with the people of the Central-Asia from the ancient time and became the one that studies the region earliest. We have had obvious achievement in the research.
