摘要。来自社会系统 - 环境系统协同进化思想实验的见解是抽象的、具有启发性的，并且只能通过引导读者亲自参与实验来传达。进行应用协同进化分析需要人们界定过程并确定一些类别，这与协同进化本身广泛、开放的性质相悖。意识到这些矛盾使得开展持续的研究项目或形成一个协同进化学者群体变得困难。在本文中，我们探讨了进行协同进化研究的认识论张力，并提出了应对这些张力的初步策略。
Abstract. Insights from social system–environmental system coevolutionary thought experiments are abstract, mind opening, and can only be conveyed by leading readers through the experiment themselves. Undertaking applied coevolutionary analyses requires one to bound processes and fix some of the categories, contrary to the nature of the broad, opening nature of coevolution itself. Being conscious of these contradictions makes it difficult to engage in a sustained research programme or form a community of coevolutionary scholars. In this article we engage with the epistemological tensions of conducting coevolutionary research and put forward tentative strategies for managing them.
