Abstract: In order to establish a SC complete discipline system, and promote the safety culturology's research and development, a definition was proposed for the safety culturology based on the existing safety culturology's research and practice achievements, and its connotation was analyzed. Based on this, four basic issues of safety culturology (including research object, research scope, research content and research purpose) were dissected. Meanwhile, the safety culturology's disciplinary foundation and five discipline branches (including safety folklore culturology, safety culture semiotics, safety culture historiography, safety culture psychology and comparative safety culturology) were discussed in detail. The results show that the construction of safety culturology has a solid foundation in both the theoretical and practical aspects, and the safety culturology's discipline system established in this paper can provide a clear outline of the safety culturology's basic issues, disciplinary foundation and discipline branches.

Key words: safety culturology(SC), definition, disciplinary issues, disciplinary foundation, discipline branches
