本文就武术研究的几个关键理论问题进行了探讨：武术的定义、可能的研究对象、适当的研究方法和寻求适用的理论框架。在对德语武术研究做了简短的介绍之后（以下观点就是从这里得出的），我们将简要地展示英语文化研究和德语文化科学之间的差异。然后，本文将讨论武术研究中的规范/对象语言论点的问题，并随后对“武术”，“格斗运动”等术语之间的术语区别进行批判性评估。作为替代方案，将提出武术的一个非常广泛的工作定义，以及归因于武术实践的五个维度，它可以帮助分析任何特定的武术风格。下一步，武术的各种实现，从身体形象到文化背景，将被归类为现象类。然后，伊塔马尔Even-Zohar的多元系统理论（专为文学研究设计）将被介绍，并证明其适用于武术研究。最后，简短的讨论将强调科学比较的方法。
This essay deals with some of the key theoretical issues of martial arts studies: the definition of martial arts, the possible objects of research, adequate methods, and the search for an applicable theoretical framework. After a very short introduction to the German-speaking martial arts studies (from whence the following ideas derive), the differences between Anglophone cultural studies and German Kulturwissenschaften will be briefly shown. The text will then discuss the problem of normative/ object-language arguments in martial arts studies, and follow with a critical assessment of terminological distinctions between terms like ‘martial arts’, ‘combat sports’, etc. As an alternative, a very wide working definition of martial arts will be proposed, as well as five dimensions of meaning ascribed to martial arts practice, which can help analyzing any given martial arts style. In a next step, the various actualizations of martial arts, from body images to cultural contexts, will be grouped into classes of phenomena. Then, Itamar Even-Zohar’s polysystem theory (devised for the study of literature) will be introduced and its applicability to martial arts studies demonstrated. Finally, a short discussion will highlight the method of scientific comparison.
