A Chinaman's Chance pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

From Tony Hsieh to Amy Chua to Jeremy Lin, Chinese Americans are now arriving at the highest levels of American business, civic life, and culture. But what makes this story of immigrant ascent unique is that Chinese Americans are emerging at just the same moment when China has emerged - and indeed may displace America - at the center of the global scene. What does it mean to be Chinese American in this moment? And how does exploring that question alter our notions of just what an American is and will be?

In many ways, Chinese Americans today are exemplars of the American Dream: during a crowded century and a half, this community has gone from indentured servitude, second-class status and outright exclusion to economic and social integration and achievement. But this narrative obscures too much: the Chinese Americans still left behind, the erosion of the American Dream in general, the emergence—perhaps—of a Chinese Dream, and how other Americans will look at their countrymen of Chinese descent if China and America ever become adversaries. As Chinese Americans reconcile competing beliefs about what constitutes success, virtue, power, and purpose, they hold a mirror up to their country in a time of deep flux.

In searching, often personal essays that range from the meaning of Confucius to the role of Chinese Americans in shaping how we read the Constitution to why he hates the hyphen in "Chinese-American," Eric Liu pieces together a sense of the Chinese American identity in these auspicious years for both countries. He considers his own public career in American media and government; his daughter's efforts to hold and release aspects of her Chinese inheritance; and the still-recent history that made anyone Chinese in America seem foreign and disloyal until proven otherwise. Provocative, often playful but always thoughtful, Liu breaks down his vast subject into bite-sized chunks, along the way providing insights into universal matters: identity, nationalism, family, and more.

很混亂沒條理的一本書,也沒什麼太新的東西。或者是我欣賞不瞭文化人寫的東西。

其實沒有讀過,不過在DC參加瞭作者在Politics & Poise的作者沙龍。到現場瞭纔知道作者是颱灣人,聽他的講座又一直隱隱不舒服,又搞不清楚為什麼。今天上班路上聽New America Foundation的podcast,又訪談他,纔明白。作者故意混淆瞭颱灣和中國,用自己在颱灣隔海相望的觀察來僞裝大陸專傢的意見。他一直強調,中國經濟增長沒什麼可怕,美國依然是世界強國,因為“美國可以令彆人(移民)成為美國人,中國人不能令彆人成為中國人。”這個結論顯然無視移民國傢和人口大國的區彆。在他口中,中國,作為他的故鄉的故鄉,是一個不懂變通,不用怕的國傢。這個形象顯然不夠豐滿。一直在說在美國的chinaman有多辛苦,卻沒有思考華裔在中美關係中的作用,感覺一直往迴看,卻沒有往前看。
