Abstract:There are three factors that contribute to the academic anomy of the postgraduates from the perspective of field theory: firstly, the invasion of the social world demolishes the independence of academic field; secondly, the pressure brought about by the alienation of academic structures, especially of academic institution, becomes a significant force leading to the academic anomy of the postgraduates; finally, the postgraduates strategically take advantage of academic anomy to avoid complete failures. Proper precautions could be exercised to prevent postgraduates academic anomy: to guarantee the independence of academic filed; to reevaluate the rationality and validity of academic system and rules; and to guide postgraduates to develop favourable academic habits.
