David Faure is Professor of History at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He is the coeditor of Down to Earth: The Territorial Bond in South China (Stanford University Press, 1995).
This book summarizes twenty years of the author's work in historical anthropology and documents his argument that in China, ritual provided the social glue that law provided in the West. The book offers a readable history of the special lineage institutions for which south China has been noted and argues that these institutions fostered the mechanisms that enabled south China to be absorbed into the imperial Chinese state—first, by introducing rituals that were acceptable to the state, and second, by providing mechanisms that made group ownership of property feasible and hence made it possible to pool capital for land reclamation projects important to the state. Just as taxation, defense, and recognition came together with the emergence of powerful lineages in the sixteenth century, their disintegration in the late nineteenth century signaled the beginnings of a new Chinese state.

寫作方麵問題不少,比較零散,行文晦澀。有的小節甚至有些文不對題(不知道是不是我沒看仔細),比如佛山霍氏那章最後一節,沒看到market體現在哪裏瞭。但老爺子寫到不少發人深省的細節,時刻提醒讀者製度法令(比如裏甲,比如地方管理和中央政權的脫節)執行的不徹底性,真正站在當時官員與平民的立場考量,非常難得。另外讀到十二章開篇,論及崇禎皇帝自縊時珠三角人民在看戲,而一個去順德赴任的官員途中聽到皇帝的消息而滿懷哀傷上任,頓時感到國傢和地方和個人之間那遙遠而又緊密的關聯,不禁深深思索國傢風雨飄搖之際個人的命運該如何。
評分叫你和劉誌X玩,看看,地方史的人不喜歡瞭吧,裏甲雖好不能大用啊~不過學生好也算是不錯~

評分Faure illustrates that "lineage" is anything but a static and "natural" tradition. Instead, it is an institution that both resulted from and propelled the integration of state and local society around the 16th c.. It came to its full cycle upon the early 20th c., when the society was reoriented around new institutions emerging in coastal cities.
