摘　　要：瑞典地理学家斯文赫定于1927—1935年间与中国学者合作,在中国西北地区开展了为期八年的野外考察,为《斯文赫定中亚地图集》的绘制奠定了坚实的基础。由于战争的影响,该图集直到1966—1982年间才陆续出版,此时的新中国已经完成了西北地区的测绘工作。因地缘政治的影响,中国人的勘测资料不为西方人所掌握。这就造成《斯文赫定中亚地图集》反映了当时西方世界对于中国西部地区的认识水平,而它对于同时期的中国学者来说却已经成为了历史。本文通过对该图集测绘与出版过程的梳理以及图集内容的分析,展示地图的绘制出版与地缘政治之间的关系。Sven Hedin,a Swedish geographer,carried out an eight-year field investigation in Northwest China from 1927 to 1935 in cooperation with Chinese scholars,which laid a solid foundation for the drawing of SVEN HEDIN CENTRAL ASIA ATLAS.Due to the wartime conditions,the atlas was not published until the late 1960 s.By that time,the new China had completed the surveying and mapping work in the northwest region,but because of the geopolitical influence,the survey data of the Chinese people were not in the hands of Westerners.As a result,when the Atlas was published,it reflected the Western world’s understanding of China’s western region at that time,but it had become history for the Chinese scholars.By sorting out the mapping and publishing process of the Atlas and analyzing its content,this paper reveals the relationship between the mapping and publishing of the map and the geopolitics at that time.
