My call in this editorial is for Childhood Studies to become more public with the added caveat that it should retain its critical rigor while doing so. Yet, despite my stated preference, my interest with this editorial is less to convince that this is indeed a good move for the field and more to encourage a discussion around the issue—in that sense, my call is meant to be preliminary. After all, fields do not follow individual injunctions, but move and develop in ways which are impacted by multiple forces which coalesce at particular times, many of which escape any individual’s control.

初步呼吁进行重要的公共儿童研究

我在这篇社论中的呼吁是，对《童年研究》进行更多公开，并增加了警告，即在这样做的同时应保持其严格的要求。然而，尽管我明确表示愿意，但我对这篇社论的兴趣不足以说服这确实是该领域的一个好举动，而更多地是鼓励围绕该问题进行讨论-从这个意义上讲，我的呼吁只是初步的。毕竟，领域不是遵循个人的命令，而是以受到多种力量影响的方式移动和发展，这些力量在特定时间会聚在一起，其中许多力量不受任何个人的控制。
