Teemu Ruskola is Professor of Law at Emory University.
Since the Cold War ended, China has become a global symbol of disregard for human rights, while the United States has positioned itself as the world's chief exporter of the rule of law. How did lawlessness become an axiom about Chineseness rather than a fact needing to be verified empirically, and how did the United States assume the mantle of law's universal appeal? In a series of wide-ranging inquiries, Teemu Ruskola investigates the history of "legal Orientalism": a set of globally circulating narratives about what law is and who has it. For example, why is China said not to have a history of corporate law, as a way of explaining its "failure" to develop capitalism on its own? Ruskola shows how a European tradition of philosophical prejudices about Chinese law developed into a distinctively American ideology of empire, influential to this day. The first Sino-U.S. treaty in 1844 authorized the extraterritorial application of American law in a putatively lawless China. A kind of legal imperialism, this practice long predated U.S. territorial colonialism after the Spanish-American War in 1898, and found its fullest expression in an American district court's jurisdiction over the "District of China. " With urgent contemporary implications, legal Orientalism lives on in the enduring damage wrought on the U.S. Constitution by late nineteenth-century anti-Chinese immigration laws, and in the self-Orientalizing reforms of Chinese law today. In the global politics of trade and human rights, legal Orientalism continues to shape modern subjectivities, institutions, and geopolitics in powerful and unacknowledged ways.

評分愛德華•薩義德在《東方主義》的開篇中談到,東方主義是 “文化和政治的現實”,並且是一種被建構的現實,將西方人的想象投射到關於東方的話語之中。既然是話語,就有著一張普羅透斯的臉,文學的、曆史的或是政治的,當然也可能是以法律的形式存在。美國埃默裏大學的絡德睦(T...

我真的看到第三章後半段纔有些理解他想說什麼- -第三章的解讀和他對functionalism的理解並不矛盾
評分中國法律是txt而非exe,真是這樣嗎?舉個栗子,和飛行員朋友聊天,問他們aviation law怎麼來的,丫說直接照抄美加法律然後把相關數據中國特色一下,蛤蛤——作者問題意識不錯,認知與闡釋上還有待提高,跨專業這玩意要麼極好要麼特糟,不大會産生平庸的作品
評分還是挺扯的啊,特彆是關於公司法與傢族比較那部分……給外國人看看好瞭何必再譯成中文
評分An ambitious yet incredibly illuminating book from a postcolonial legal perspective. Recommended to any foreigner who finds himself stuck in a stereotypical view of China and Chinese law.
評分顧盛在華期間和美國政府之間的通信比較有意思,加一星。總體而言,作者對中國史的瞭解非常有限,以至於提齣瞭很多好問題,但是根本無力做齣解釋,很多結論過於想當然瞭;作者對領事法院和會審公廨的認知又很膚淺…總之,沒有金剛鑽就彆攬這瓷器活
