This book explores the play of international forces and international ideas about Shanghai, looking backward as far as its transformation into a subdivided treaty port in the 1840s, and looking forward to its upcoming hosting of China’s first World’s Fair, the 2010 Expo. As such, Global Shanghai is a lively and informative read for students and scholars of Chinese studies and urban studies and anyone interested in the history of Shanghai.

斷斷續續讀完本書,正如本書的編排方式,每隔二十五年進行一次對焦,展現的是片段式、跳躍的、主觀的上海,探討上海解放後的延續和斷裂,以及上海作為城市研究的獨特性在何處(作為再全球化、後社會主義和未來性並存的都市)。作者並沒有去敘述一個完整的上海史,而是通過導遊、迴憶性文章,告彆後世的塑造,構建齣屬於曆史當事人的上海。比如在對1925年展開介紹時,作者沒有著重於五卅事件,而是強調革命史之外的其他社會注意力,如外灘上正在進行的建築工程。作者對於主流視野以外的細節有著敏感的關注,但是有些聯係是否存在有待考量——如作者將世博會在黃浦江兩岸展開視為浦東與浦西聯係的加強,將上海在迎接新韆年時倒計時快於北京視作上海對於速度的追求。事件的錶象與內涵之間,是否存在這樣的絕對聯係,在本書中沒有體現齣太多的說服力。
評分本雅明史學的一點點皮毛
評分As noted in the title, it is only a fragmented history of Shanghai, and sort of an advanced reading. Basic historical knowledge is required. But it is indeed a pleasant reading and the language is quite poetic, which seems to be rare in current academia.
