For two thousand years the disparate groups that now reside in Zomia (a mountainous region the size of Europe that consists of portions of seven Asian countries) have fled the projects of the organized state societies that surround them?slavery, conscription, taxes, corvée labor, epidemics, and warfare. This book, essentially an ?anarchist history,? is the first-ever examination of the huge literature on state-making whose author evaluates why people would deliberately and reactively remain stateless. Among the strategies employed by the people of Zomia to remain stateless are physical dispersion in rugged terrain; agricultural practices that enhance mobility; pliable ethnic identities; devotion to prophetic, millenarian leaders; and maintenance of a largely oral culture that allows them to reinvent their histories and genealogies as they move between and around states.

In accessible language, James Scott, recognized worldwide as an eminent authority in Southeast Asian, peasant, and agrarian studies, tells the story of the peoples of Zomia and their unlikely odyssey in search of self-determination. He redefines our views on Asian politics, history, demographics, and even our fundamental ideas about what constitutes civilization, and challenges us with a radically different approach to history that presents events from the perspective of stateless peoples and redefines state-making as a form of ?internal colonialism.? This new perspective requires a radical reevaluation of the civilizational narratives of the lowland states. Scott?s work on Zomia represents a new way to think of area studies that will be applicable to other runaway, fugitive, and marooned communities, be they Gypsies, Cossacks, tribes fleeing slave raiders, Marsh Arabs, or San-Bushmen.

“逃離國傢”的話題,是由James Scott教授在關於Zomia地區曆史的研究中提齣的。作為一種關於地域空間的研究,Scott引入垂直空間視角去觀察Zomia地區的政治和社會結構與曆史過程,他由個人及群體的能動性去解釋高地社會的政治體製,把作為曆史行動者的山地人群的“無國傢”政治...

中國有句老話,“窮山惡水齣刁民”,仔細想,可見其居心之險惡,這句話無外是站在所謂的“文明中心”看那些僻壤之境人群的生存方式,並在掌握瞭話語權的情況下隨手貼上標簽,維護自身秩序井然的形象。 但Scott 這本The Art of Not Being Governed 說的很清楚,首先,山地居民的...

引 言 宣統三年(1911)夏天,川滇邊務大臣趙爾豐在四川康區的“改土歸流”事業進入尾聲。康區改土歸流的目標是把原土司地區從四川省劃分齣來,單獨設立西康省,原土司管理下的各地方將改設為八九十個州縣,由外派流官治理。[1]趙爾豐與助手傅嵩炑抵達康定(打箭爐),收繳完...

西南研究不得不看。略讀加精讀,兩天總算搞定,關於高地社會族群認同bandwidth的討論非常有趣。

评分

逃離國傢——逃離的是臣民的身份,而不是與國傢的關係。實際上,山民一直在尋找與國傢的適當關係,纔能讓自己生存下來。

评分

山地意識下,從曆史到現在的南中國和東南亞大陸文明會呈現齣不同的麵相。

zomia,我們其實叫它為“金三角”。作為問題域,它顛覆瞭民族國傢分析框架。scott關心的那些人,他們不斷逃離國傢宰製,成為瞭這世界上獨特的一群。那麼多人研究中國西南的少數民族,若是像scott這樣來研究,還真是有意思。

斯氏在數本書中似有種一以貫之的研究認識進路:強調人類學式實地田野、民族誌、文本解讀和質性認識;展現國傢/官僚技術統治/市場經濟覆蓋地域以外社會形製自我維持和反抗簡化統治形態擴展的可能性;以東南亞等邊緣落後地區材料觀照西歐中心為起始之現代世界;推齣現代史和社科的學術書寫中國傢/現代性中心以外可能的曆史書寫方式。拒斥國傢推展統治術並非罕見,但斯氏強調此種現象在東南亞以族群層次,利用地形、曆史敘述和遊耕模式戰略性展開,逐漸形成一長期遊離於各國邊緣、僅在最低程度上利用國傢資源的山民曆史社會實體,故而反思歐美經驗中國傢擴展的天然性和統治術的建構與權力性,啓發未來人類社會形態。對民族建構采強建構學說。反照主流社科,有趣問題便是為何現代民族國傢在西歐展開如此順利至被奉為理所當然,是戰爭的地理擴展使然?
