China's one-child rule is unassailably one of the most controversial social policies of all time. In the first book of its kind, Susan Greenhalgh draws on twenty years of research into China's population politics to explain how the leaders of a nation of one billion decided to limit all couples to one child. Focusing on the historic period 1978-80, when China was just reentering the global capitalist system after decades of self-imposed isolation, Greenhalgh documents the extraordinary manner in which a handful of leading aerospace engineers hijacked the population policymaking process and formulated a strategy that treated people like missiles. Just One Child situates these science- and policymaking practices in their broader contexts--the scientization and statisticalization of sociopolitical life--and provides the most detailed and incisive account yet of the origins of the one-child policy.
可以理解作者想把知道的一切都塞进去的想法,但是实在是乱炖。有价值的片段很多,只是需要自己联系。
评分作者强调这是一本STS、民族志、历史学和政治学大乱炖的问题导向著作。从“中国的一胎化政策是怎么制定的”问题背后,挖掘出了CR到邓时代一连串的社会背景下不同理论来源(马克思主义社会科学,导弹控制论专家等等)在人口问题上的不同行动。其中涉及到如何划分中国语境下“科学”的领域,如何使科学进入政治,使政治决策变成科学。涉及到最高决策blackbox的部分相当有趣。全书结构稍有冗余,有些内容似乎在反复出现,但不失精彩。
评分再读一遍,要是susan收我做学生,我就拍套裸照送给她。。

评分作者通过对一胎化政策出台前科学/社科学者之间的博弈以及对高层政治之间的关系试图说明为何中国的人口政策为何会走向一胎化极端。对毛时期政策的反思反叛使得破除意识形态束缚的科学成为了新的意识形态和合法性象征。但一胎化又并不是非政治的产物,其中亦涉及了偶然、人事、以及高层对人口危机的感性理解。在与非科学人文社科、元老与新官僚的博弈过程中高层最终抛弃了七十年代缓和的人口政策,走向极端。
