As Lei is writing this book, he is conscious of Chakrabarty’s criticism of the repeated “temporal structure of the statement, ‘first in the West, and then elsewhere,’” which leads to a certain type of “academic discourse” that “all these other histo...

Neither Donkey nor Horse 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书图书描述

Neither Donkey nor Horse tells the story of how Chinese medicine was transformed from the antithesis of modernity in the early twentieth century into a potent symbol of and vehicle for China’s exploration of its own modernity half a century later. Instead of viewing this transition as derivative of the political history of modern China, Sean Hsiang-lin Lei argues that China’s medical history had a life of its own, one that at times directly influenced the ideological struggle over the meaning of China’s modernity and the Chinese state.

Far from being a remnant of China’s premodern past, Chinese medicine in the twentieth century coevolved with Western medicine and the Nationalist state, undergoing a profound transformation—institutionally, epistemologically, and materially—that resulted in the creation of a modern Chinese medicine. This new medicine was derided as “neither donkey nor horse” because it necessarily betrayed both of the parental traditions and therefore was doomed to fail. Yet this hybrid medicine survived, through self-innovation and negotiation, thus challenging the conception of modernity that rejected the possibility of productive crossbreeding between the modern and the traditional.

By exploring the production of modern Chinese medicine and China’s modernity in tandem, Lei offers both a political history of medicine and a medical history of the Chinese state.

Review

“In this insightful and provocative book, Lei shows us what it meant to practice ‘modern’ medicine in Mao Zedong’s semicolonial and semifeudal society. Drawing on rich historical sources, Neither Donkey nor Horse reveals that modern medicine will always be mongrel medicine. Importantly, Lei gives us the critical postcolonial genealogy for ‘Traditional Chinese Medicine,’ the epitome of Chinese modernity, now a global phenomenon.”

(Warwick Anderson, University of Sydney)

“Reaching far beyond the history of modern China, Neither Donkey nor Horse challenges conventional understanding of modernity, science, and state power through an intellectual and social history of medical debate and development in East Asia from the late nineteenth century forward. This is a thoughtful and meticulously researched investigation of transnational modernizing processes in the twentieth century as they touched down and transformed worlds in China. The book demonstrates that medical knowledge and practice, whether ‘modern’ or ‘traditional,’ historicized or fixed as policy, are nowhere innocent of politics, culture, and social hierarchy. It offers surprising historical lessons for everyone interested in science and local knowledge, socialism and capitalism, institutions and ideas about nature as they weave together in modern regimes of health and population governance.”

(Judith Farquhar, University of Chicago)

“Neither Donkey nor Horse is a tour de force of how both Western and Chinese medicine played central roles not only in Chinese modernity but also the formation of the state in Republican China. Lei thus adroitly relates the politics of medicine and debates over making Chinese medicine more scientific to the big themes of nationalism, the state, and modernity that dominated the political struggles of early twentieth-century China.”

(Marta Hanson, Johns Hopkins University)

“Neither Donkey nor Horse is a major work by the leading scholar in the field of modern Chinese medical history. Lei argues that what we now know as traditional Chinese medicine as it emerged as a discourse in the early twentieth century was fundamentally shaped by the encounter with Western medicine and the relationship with the state that this dictated. Chinese medicine was something new that was created during this period in response to themes with Western biomedicine as traditional practitioners sought social mobility through participation in the state. Lei’s argument is backed up by research of the highest standard: his knowledge of the historical sources is outstanding, and he is impressively familiar with the secondary and theoretical literature in both English and Chinese. His book will be of interest not only to historians of Republican China but also to those interested in the history of science more widely.”

(Henrietta Harrison, University of Oxford)

“If you are going to read just one book on the modern history of Chinese medicine, this is the work to read. Lei’s analysis of the entwinement of medicine, science, modernity, and the state is brilliantly original and persuasive, and argued with admirable clarity. Neither Donkey nor Horse is a major contribution to science studies and the history of global health, as well as to the study of twentieth-century China.”

(Shigehisa Kuriyama, Harvard University)

读了将近一个月，生词实在太多了，好像回到了高晞老师的课堂上！不写严肃短评，随便唠一唠。中医争论真是有趣，现在的很多论题都是民国时代的，余云岫降维打击！“废医存药”这个梗真是难跨，反对派炮火猛烈反而使国医运动提高了对中医的关注度。精英和政治话语对于医学实践的影响非常显著：批评和支持中医的两派都摸索着学会了利用民族主义和“科学化”的口号。一个例子：猪油辟邪因为不够“科学”，立即被逐出中医疗法行列，把之前已被边缘化的针灸（号称能够“科学”放松肌肉）放进来了。另外，定县的头头脑脑都是留洋精英啊，在乡村做出来的东西倒意外的“中国化”。

本书突出了中医自身在近代中国的现代性进程中的能动性，即中医的科学化、现代化不单纯依附于国家政策、科学技术和现代化的附属品。所谓非驴非马，指的是在中医现代化、科学化和规范化进程中融合生物医学后产生的“杂中医”，其产生与部分中医治疗师的努力和国民党政府密不可分。因此，要在拉图尔的基础上认识到简单的现代/传统、自然/文化的对立不能解释中医发展过程中在实践层面中西医结合的事实，就需要注意二者之间大量的杂糅部分。也正是在这个意义上“我们从未现代过”，因为“现代”无法脱离“传统”，二者不是截然对立的两种事物。
