本书第11章被理所应当地作了部分删节。对于肉食者罔顾学术自由的任何严厉的指谪可以说都是毫不为过的,然而残酷的现实并不靠吾辈在网上敲击键盘就能够被“骂”好的。所以还是想着利用网络做些更实际的工作,所以开始补译第11章的中国一节,并重译导论。但无法在此站直接公开发...
评分先谈本书立意。 海登·怀特(1928-)在自己集二十世纪史学大成的名著《元史学》中(1973),通过对19世纪历史意识的研究,得出如下结论: A.历史既是正统历史学,同时必定是历史哲学; B.史学的可能模式与思辨历史哲学的可能模式相同; C.这些模式实际上分析起来又是先于...
评分回顾中外历史,大屠杀可谓古来有之,无论是秦将白起坑杀四十万赵军,还是成吉思汗在西征时的野蛮屠城,其残忍和惨烈程度丝毫不亚于现代历史上的任何一次大屠杀。然而大多数学者仍然认为,以某个种族整体作为消灭对象的大屠杀,却全部都发生在现代。 正基于此,对于种族清洗现...
评分《民主的阴暗面》这一书名极具争议,看上去有几分令人不快的味道——因为很多人认为民主没有阴暗面,就算有也不是种族清洗。读完这厚厚的八百页,不少人的心中可能会涌起一个困惑:作者把土耳其、美国、纳粹德国、苏联、红色高棉、卢旺达等种种看似完全不相干的政体形式都放在...
评分本文原载《新京报·书评周刊》 迈克尔·曼的《民主的阴暗面:解释种族清洗》如果与R.J. Rummel的《权力杀戮:民主作为非暴力的一种方式》同时阅读,将是非常有意思的阅读体验。同样最初出版于2005年,两本书所传达的意思却截然相反:前者试图论述“民主化加剧族群冲突”,而后...

A new theory of ethnic cleansing based on the most terrible cases (colonial genocides, Armenia, the Nazi Holocaust, Cambodia, Yugoslavia, Rwanda) and cases of lesser violence (early modern Europe, contemporary India, and Indonesia). Murderous cleansing is modern, 'the dark side of democracy'. It results where the demos (democracy) is confused with the ethnos (the ethnic group). Danger arises where two rival ethno-national movements each claims 'its own' state over the same territory. Conflict escalates where either the weaker side fights because of aid from outside, or the stronger side believes it can deploy sudden, overwhelming force. Escalation is not simply the work of 'evil elites' or 'primitive peoples'. It results from complex interactions between leaders, militants, and 'core constituencies' of ethno-nationalism. Understanding this complex process helps us devise policies to avoid ethnic cleansing in the future.
