Rightful Resistance in Rural China 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书
吃好晚饭以后开始发奋读书。看掉了Rightful Resistance in Rural China,这是我读到过的近两年来写当代中国写得最好的一本书。当然,我好象一共也没读过几本……我很推荐这本书,无论是对于社会运动理论有兴趣,还是对于当今中国政治转型有关照,或者仅仅是想知道中国农村现在...
评分Kevin O’Brien 和李连江2006年的这本书,虽然定位于contentious politics这个多少有点机械无聊的研究领域,但是说实话还真是一本不错的书,短短100页出头,其洞见却已经远远超出contentious politics的范畴了。根据我自己的研究兴趣和习惯思路,写写我的理解。 啥是“Rightfu...

How can the poor and weak “work”a political system to their advantage?
Drawing mainly on interviews and surveys in rural China, Kevin O’Brien and
Lianjiang Li show that popular action often hinges on locating and exploiting
divisions within the state. Otherwise powerless people use the rhetoric and
commitments of the central government to try to fight misconduct by local
officials, open up clogged channels of participation, and push back the frontiers of the permissible. This “rightful resistance” has far-reaching implications for our understanding of contentious politics. As O’Brien and Li explore the origins, dynamics, and consequences of rightful resistance, they highlight similarities between collective action in places as varied as China, the former East Germany, and the United States, while suggesting how Chinese experiences speak to issues such as opportunities to protest, claims radicalization, tactical innovation, and the outcomes of contention. Although the focus of their rich, ground-level analysis is contemporary China, the authors make a compelling argument that wherever a gap between rights promised and rights delivered exists, there is room for rightful resistance to emerge.
道理似乎并不复杂。无权的老百姓,利用央地关系的罅隙或者话语-实践的落差,以子之矛,攻子之盾。用词比较“讲究”,但我觉得少用点高级单词似乎也不会耽误说理。。
评分赞一下从材料的那么多内容中选出了不少有意思又有很有理论关注的问题!
评分这本书是一个很微妙很有意思的平衡。一方面理论和框架完全是西式的,通过一道道理论关卡截取出中国农村抗争政治中可以为西方现成抗争政治理论参照的部分;另一方面由于中国合作者和中国二手资料,又对中国农村基层政治生态有很好的细致描述,平衡不错。西方学者在看中国问题的时候,总会从自己的问题意识出发去削足适履地从材料中攫取或重组出对问题有意义的部分,变成可以同西方理论和案例相对比的材料。在这个过程中中国特性毫无疑问会被重塑或消减。一方面,应该批评部分人的过度重塑和强行套用理论,强调中国自在的特殊性;但另一方面也应该思考他们如何用理论建构和框架和有意义的问题去发现和塑造值得研究的对象,把新研究整合到可以同原有文献有效对话,以及反思自己高喊中国特殊性那么多年到底是否有效形成了和西方的对话/对照。
评分刷完的
