Since its U.S. debut a quarter-century ago, this brilliant text has set a new standard for historical scholarship of Latin America. It is also an outstanding political economy, a social and cultural narrative of the highest quality, and perhaps the finest description of primitive capital accumulation since Marx.Rather than chronology, geography, or political successions, Eduardo Galeano has organized the various facets of Latin American history according to the patterns of five centuries of exploitation. Thus he is concerned with gold and silver, cacao and cotton, rubber and coffee, fruit, hides and wool, petroleum, iron, nickel, manganese, copper, aluminum ore, nitrates, and tin. These are the veins which he traces through the body of the entire continent, up to the Rio Grande and throughout the Caribbean, and all the way to their open ends where they empty into the coffers of wealth in the United States and Europe.Weaving fact and imagery into a rich tapestry, Galeano fuses scientific analysis with the passions of a plundered and suffering people. An immense gathering of materials is framed with a vigorous style that never falters in its command of themes. All readers interested in great historical, economic, political, and social writing will find a singular analytical achievement, and an overwhelming narrative that makes history speak, unforgettably.This classic is now further honored by Isabel Allendeas inspiring introduction. Universally recognized as one of the most important writers of our time, Allende once again contributes her talents to literature, to political principles, and to enlightenment.

《拉丁美洲被切開的血管》一書,很早就知道,我甚至忘瞭瞭解的途徑。今年在書店看到有新版問世,就購入,甚至在自己還沒拆開封皮的時候,就推薦給朋友,還送瞭2本齣去。 本書從導讀部分,就很有趣。導讀提到一位智利婦女將該書裹在嬰兒尿布裏逃離聖地亞哥,我猜這位婦女就是伊...
評分本書寫作於40年前。作者就其瞭解的曆史,對國際壟斷資本與政治利益團體,進行瞭辛辣的抨擊,力圖呈現給世人一幅“真相”。 但是,盲人摸象,即便你摸到的大象的每寸肌膚都是真實的,也不意味著你能勾勒齣整頭大象的三維影像,更不用提摸清其內部生命運行的奧秘瞭。加萊亞諾,...
評分談及中國經濟的發展,我們總喜歡和美國、歐洲或是日本對比,以此來衡量自己取得的成就。然而有一個角落卻往往被有意無意疏忽,那就是被稱為“拉丁美洲”的廣大地區。常年來,我們對這一區域的認識,僅僅停留在一些地理性的常識和拉美人對足球的天賦上。至於經濟政治形勢,則近...
評分被壓迫著的,在一日復一日的無意義的勞動和貧窮中死去——這就是這本書中所描繪的大部分拉丁美洲人的命運。它是一本非常珍貴的作品,在所有個人觀點之下,作者真實地描述瞭血淋淋的現實。這本書讓你很難相信在它所齣版的七十年代的世界裏,世界上還會有這樣悲慘的命運,而更悲...
