China's Second Continent 电子书 读后感

评分

这是一本很有趣的书。 中非合作是近15年以来的热门话题,也是国际政治经济舞台中令人瞩目的一件大事。最主要的关注点在于,中非贸易额不断突破新高,中国不断从非洲拿走丰富的资源,拿下丰厚的合同和市场。但作者关注这个问题的角度还是很独特的,他关注了人的迁移,讲...

所謂紐約時報體就是:夾敘夾議,以議爲主。 看到第二章開頭,實在忍不住查了下作者身世,果然是記者兼教授,供職於哥倫比亞大學新聞系和紐約時報,於是紐約時報體幾乎是一定的了。 作者的introduction寫得眞不錯:雖然政府總是在制定計劃,但是往往是一個個的移民對於現實有更...

China's Second Continent 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

An exciting, hugely revealing account of China’s burgeoning presence in Africa—a developing empire already shaping, and reshaping, the future of millions of people.

A prizewinning foreign correspondent and former New York Times bureau chief in Shanghai and in West and Central Africa, Howard French is uniquely positioned to tell the story of China in Africa. Through meticulous on-the-ground reporting—conducted in Mandarin, French, and Portuguese, among other languages—French crafts a layered investigation of astonishing depth and breadth as he engages not only with policy-shaping moguls and diplomats, but also with the ordinary men and women navigating the street-level realities of cooperation, prejudice, corruption, and opportunity forged by this seismic geopolitical development. With incisiveness and empathy, French reveals the human face of China’s economic, political, and human presence across the African continent—and in doing so reveals what is at stake for everyone involved.

We meet a broad spectrum of China’s dogged emigrant population, from those singlehandedly reshaping African infrastructure, commerce, and even environment (a self-made tycoon who harnessed Zambia’s now-booming copper trade; a timber entrepreneur determined to harvest the entirety of Liberia’s old-growth redwoods), to those just barely scraping by (a sibling pair running small businesses despite total illiteracy; a karaoke bar owner–cum–brothel madam), still convinced that Africa affords them better opportunities than their homeland. And we encounter an equally panoramic array of African responses: a citizens’ backlash in Senegal against a “Trojan horse” Chinese construction project (a tower complex to be built over a beloved soccer field, which locals thought would lead to overbearing Chinese pressure on their economy); a Zambian political candidate who, having protested China’s intrusiveness during the previous election and lost, now turns accommodating; the ascendant middle class of an industrial boomtown; African mine workers bitterly condemning their foreign employers, citing inadequate safety precautions and wages a fraction of their immigrant counterparts’.

French’s nuanced portraits reveal the paradigms forming around this new world order, from the all-too-familiar echoes of colonial ambition—exploitation of resources and labor; cut-rate infrastructure projects; dubious treaties—to new frontiers of cultural and economic exchange, where dichotomies of suspicion and trust, assimilation and isolation, idealism and disillusionment are in dynamic flux.

Part intrepid travelogue, part cultural census, part industrial and political exposé, French’s keenly observed account ultimately offers a fresh perspective on the most pressing unknowns of modern Sino-African relations: why China is making the incursions it is, just how extensive its cultural and economic inroads are, what Africa’s role in the equation is, and just what the ramifications for both parties—and the watching world—will be in the foreseeable future.

说到所谓“中国形象”,不论海外投资、游客、还是政府行为、宣传,我通常都持负面的emotional的评价。事情当然不会那么简单,tension总有多方面的原因。“Why is everything involving the Chinese so sensitive?"不过整体来说,我还是觉得,要是中国的政府、企业和个人不是只想赚钱、想发财、想”发展“,世界会干净很多

作者的流水账游记, 意思不大

别当学术书看,作为一般了解,还是站得住脚的。深度不是太高,但让你写你写得出来吗?

早看了评论的话我就不会浪费时间了。读了2/3后放弃。
