In this title, two renowned political scientists make the contrarian, research-based case that - regardless of any other factors political scientists or historians may find relevant - the calculations and actions of rulers are the driving force of all politics, and the primary goal of rulers is to maintain power as long as possible. In this clever and accessible book, Bueno de Mesquita and Smith introduce us to their perspective of the political world. They bare the logic of politics, starting from the simple premise that leaders pursue their own ends, and that populations either have, or more often don't have, the power to constrain them to a significant degree. The book is organized by a series interconnected questions, among them: Why do leaders who wreck their countries keep their jobs for so long? Why do autocracies have dismal economic policies? How are there so many suffering people in resource-rich lands? Why do 'natural disasters' disproportionately strike poor nations? Why do 'evil-doers' so often collect loads of foreign aid? Why are democracies so good at war? In answering these questions, the authors look at politics, the choices of public policies, and even decisions about war and peace as lying outside of conventional thinking about culture and history. They set aside ideas of civic virtue and psychopathology. Such notions simply are not central to understanding what leaders do and why they do it. Instead, Bueno de Mesquita and Smith see politicians as self-interested louts, just the sort of people you wouldn't want to have over for dinner, but without whom you might not have dinner at all. And from this perspective, they are able to answer some perplexing mysteries of politics, shed light on what we read in the newspapers every single day, and offer realistic ways of improving human governance.
非常好的政治学科普书。主要强调三点,一是实证性(相对于规范性),二是方法论个人主义,三是政治联盟的组成和维持。读这本入门既避免了“天下乌鸦一般黑”的虚无主义病,也不会陷入过于moralistic地看政治。这本中文引进版恐怕少不了删减。
评分脑洞太大,有点儿牵强。不过有些部分(比如援助问题)听起来挺有道理的。 分好高啊。
评分非常好读了 没畏惧感 //想到主编说的 书不求读完 当你知道你为什么要读并且达成了这项诉求 就可以放下了 觉得对 为自己看不完每一本专著找到好台阶
评分东方早报推荐的,文笔简洁,观点有趣。可惜我近期心情有限,没有读完就还给图书馆了。
评分作者还是想说民主是个好东西. 此外, 对外援助通讯器材比食品药物更有利于推进被援助国的民主
