美国宪法序言的首句是“我们,美国人民……”。那么,“我们是谁?”亨廷顿这本书给出了一个老保守派,也是一个美国文化民族主义者的回答:美国的国家认同应该由美国建国时就确立的的主流文化,即盎格鲁-新教文化来确定。凡认同这套文化的,才是真正的“美国人民”。 美国...
评分Samuel P. Huntington, Who are We ?: The Challenges to America's National Identity New York: Simon and Schuster, 2005, 448pp., $16.99 pbk (ISBN: 978-0-6848-7054-0) In Who are We?, Samuel Huntington analyzes the content and prominent changes of American natio...
评分一本政治上错误的书。 亨廷顿否认“美国是由移民组成”的观念,提出了美国最早的建立者不是Immigrants而是Settlers。两者的区别在于:Immigrants指外来者加入一个已经发展完全的文化中;Settlers指一批人来到一个文化空白的地方建立起一套(从原属国带来的或者自创的)...
评分美国是什么,各种肤色语言的拼盘沙拉,还是盎格鲁撒克逊做底的番茄汤。国人写美国,总是雾里看花终隔一层,就像老外的中国学永远让人读完心里发出一声哂笑。那么这本书适合的是想对美国有所了解的初学者,大师下笔,未必晦涩,读完之后,两个美国的框架自然会了然于胸,也会了...
评分老亨本人似乎是对American Creed的推崇转移至American Culture的推崇的,60、70年代高呼美国大熔炉/番茄汤的一代现在甚至连沙拉都不愿意做了,留下lettuce和American beef,墨西哥橄榄能不加就不加。 本书中,亨廷顿提出national identity这一依然非常建构主义色彩的概念。他对...

In his seminal work The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order, Samuel Huntington argued provocatively and presciently that with the end of the cold war, "civilizations" were replacing ideologies as the new fault lines in international politics. Now in his controversial new work, Who Are We?, Huntington focuses on an identity crisis closer to home as he examines the impact other civilizations and their values are having on our own country. America was founded by British settlers who brought with them a distinct culture, says Huntington, including the English language, Protestant values, individualism, religious commitment, and respect for law. The waves of immigrants that later came to the United States gradually accepted these values and assimilated into America's Anglo-Protestant culture. More recently, however, our national identity has been eroded by the problems of assimilating massive numbers of primarily Hispanic immigrants and challenged by issues such as bilingualism, multiculturalism, the devaluation of citizenship, and the "denationalization" of American elites. September 11 brought a revival of American patriotism and a renewal of American identity, but already there are signs that this revival is fading. Huntington argues the need for us to reassert the core values that make us Americans. Timely and thought-provoking, Who Are We? is an important book that is certain to shape our national conversation about who we are.
不如《文明的冲突》写的好
评分廉颇老矣。自60年代以降,美国人见世风日下,而重接受盎格鲁-撒克逊-新教伦理,抵制多元文化主义及其伦理。但于我而言,多元主义的伦理体系如何失败?或者诚如布鲁姆的立论,真因美国人的不思考致多元主义失败?另亨廷顿并未引布鲁姆著作,有趣。
评分我连打一星的冲动都有。。。
评分川普上台火了《乡下人的悲歌》,相比之下这本更容易理解下层白人的愤怒。作为欧洲白人,他们本是美国的核心人群,黑人是他们的奴隶,华人是他们的劳工,日本人是手下败将,菲律宾是殖民地,美国的辉煌都是他们创造的。现如今,移民源源不断涌入美国,少数族裔不仅数量上超越了欧洲白人,还在就业入学等方面享有特权,种族平等的政治正确让少数族裔的话语权远超底层白人,少数族裔享受了美国的好,还吃里扒外,对美国及母国有双重效忠,不是为了美国利益着想,为了母国利益充当说客左右美国大选。所以他们不爽,要起来反抗,把川普选出来,建边界墙,限制移民,对吃里扒外的人进行清洗,让那些只重视自身利益不重视美国利益的跨国公司把就业机会收回国内。让美国再次伟大,实际上是让美国白人重夺美国主导权。
评分话糙理不糙
