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.
研究问题是人口学者是如何将“人口过剩”建构为事实并说服政策制定者。问题意识好且具开创性。但完成度低:1、控制论(宋健)、马主义统计学(刘铮)、马主义人文主义(梁中堂)三方竞争关系有拉大旗作虎皮之嫌,宋刘观点差异小,矛盾主要在学术之外;梁人微言轻,不足与二子并列。2、宋以“科学叙事”迎合“实事求是”的政治环境而取胜,似在套用STS、Latour、福柯等时髦理论而观点先行。即从这一传统来说,对量化方法如何具体影响思维视角,讨论极少,差强人意。3、提及领导人决策在先,寻找科学依据在后,但未予重视。实际上,人口是否过多早在反右和新人口论时就建构为问题,经政治“拨乱反正”,高层早有定见。案例恰恰说明政治利用科学,而非科学影响政治。4、对政策过程-科学过程之关系,大而化之,既无新方法,也无新证据。
评分理论框架和民族志材料衔接地挺好的。挺期待作者能就开放二孩政策做进一步研究。
评分比之前预想的要好很多!
评分看了前面几章 其实没有看完 但这个topic很有趣 以及这种可以从头梳理一项政策的计划实施的背景实施过程的内容非常吸引我 尤其是上过policy oriented research课程之后 了解一项政策是如何产生和为什么能实现非常有趣 毕业了只好把书还给图书馆 希望有时间能读完 以及很想自己翻一个中文版
评分讲独生子女政策来由,惊人丰富的材料...
