Survey on Hakkaology and the Potential Expanding Research Agenda in Hakka Studies A Research Note

Scholars from different countries and backgrounds have been discussing Hakka in Hakka Studies or Hakkaology. Their research covers a broader area from medicine to cultural studies, even involving trans and multidisciplinary studies. However, there is a lack of studies that map Hakka-related research. What is the trend of research on Hakka? This study surveyed Hakka-related research articles in three databases (Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Scopus) from 2000 to 2022 and found a positive trend of Hakka-related research in quantitative (number of research) and qualitative (various topics of research) ways. This study also finds that topics related to culture and linguistics dominate the research on Hakka, while the study on health and genetics is also increasing. The study also finds an opportunity to explore and expand research areas in Hakka studies, including economics, business, politics, and international relations. The Consortium of Global Hakka Studies is essential to explore this opportunity, and Taiwan can play a critical role as a center and hub for global Hakka studies.

客家學研究聚集不同國家及背景的學者。研究項目涵蓋醫學到文化研究甚至跨科學和跨領域研究。儘管如此，客家研究藍圖裡仍然有缺角。本研究探討什麼是客家學流行的研究？此研究調查2000年至2022三個資料庫（google學術搜尋、Web of Science資料庫、Scopus文獻資料庫）的客家研究文章並發現兩種客家研究途徑即質性研究和量化研究，而研究題目多數著重於客家文化與客家語言學為主。此外健康與遺傳學相關研究日益漸增。本研究結果顯示客家研究的探索空間仍然寬廣，研究領域能擴展到經濟、商業、政治和國際關係。以客家研究聯盟為核心，台灣將作為全球客家研究中心並扮演關鍵的角色。
