Samuel Phillips Huntington (April 18, 1927 – December 24, 2008) was an influential conservative political scientist from the United States of America whose works covered multiple sub-fields of political science. He gained wider prominence through his Clash of Civilizations (1993, 1996) thesis of a post-Cold War new world order.
He was a member of Harvard's department of government from 1950 until he was denied tenure in 1959.From 1959 to 1962 he was an associate professor of government at Columbia University where he was also Deputy Director of The Institute for War and Peace Studies. Huntington was invited to return to Harvard with tenure in 1963 and remained there until his death. He was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1965.Huntington and Warren Demian Manshel co-founded and co-edited Foreign Policy. Huntington stayed as co-editor until 1977.
His first major book was The Soldier and the State: The Theory and Politics of Civil-Military Relations, (1957) which was highly controversial when it was published, but today is regarded as the most influential book on American civil-military relations. He became prominent with his Political Order in Changing Societies (1968), a work that challenged the conventional view of modernization theorists, that economic and social progress would produce stable democracies in recently decolonized countries. As a consultant to the U.S. Department of State, and in an influential 1968 article in Foreign Affairs, he advocated the concentration of the rural population of South Vietnam as a means of isolating the Viet Cong. He also was co-author of The Crisis of Democracy: On the Governability of Democracies, a report issued by the Trilateral Commission in 1976. During 1977 and 1978, in the administration of Jimmy Carter, he was the White House Coordinator of Security Planning for the National Security Council.
Huntington died on December 24, 2008, at age 81 in Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts.

They deny that the basic genuinely irreconcilable differences in the philosophic, political, and religious. 花了十天时间来读亨廷顿的《文明的冲突和世界秩序的重建》,很好读。不同与其他主流观点“经济基础决定上层意识形态”,亨廷顿把国家间的冲突定义为文明...
评分http://www.douban.com/note/181102313/ 一、 首先不能说该书全无道理,至少它对现实政治里面的冲突是理顺了的,假若人们真的产生了对立感,一方感到深深的孤独和隔绝,好象成为了异在于某文明的杂质,这一方的文明必然会作为一个整体反抗外来的侵蚀和压迫,这既合乎此书的道...
评分 评分《文明的冲突》,看完了这本著名的书。 1. 觉得我们国内一时半会不可能出这样的书,有研究,有资料,有道理,有见地。国内的制度环境暂时还产生不了这样的学者。即便充分估量国内学者的能力与智慧,但因为学者的御用性,就是研究工作为党和国家直接服务的要求,使得学者不可能...
评分内在过于用力的结果是对外在的怀疑, 若是内在产生空洞,外在的情感或者物质无法填补,必须要靠足够的精神去支持。 要么内在足够强大,要么获得与外在的平衡, 当然两者最好皆有。 然而通常,外在并不受控制,内在的强大并不如所需要的那样足够。 这是大部分人必须要面对或者实...

Since its initial publication nearly fifteen years ago The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order has become a classic work of international relations and one of the most influential books ever written about foreign affairs. An insightful and powerful analysis of the forces driving global politics, it is as indispensable to our understanding of American foreign policy today as the day it was published. As former National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski says in his new foreword to the book, it “has earned a place on the shelf of only about a dozen or so truly enduring works that provide the quintessential insights necessary for a broad understanding of world affairs in our time.” Samuel Huntington explains how clashes between civilizations are the greatest threat to world peace but also how an international order based on civilizations is the best safeguard against war. Events since the publication of the book have proved the wisdom of that analysis. The 9/11 attacks and wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have demonstrated the threat of civilizations but have also shown how vital international cross-civilization cooperation is to restoring peace. As ideological distinctions among nations have been replaced by cultural differences, world politics has been reconfigured. Across the globe, new conflicts—and new cooperation—have replaced the old order of the Cold War era. The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order explains how the population explosion in Muslim countries and the economic rise of East Asia are changing global politics. These developments challenge Western dominance, promote opposition to supposedly “universal” Western ideals, and intensify intercivilization conflict over such issues as nuclear proliferation, immigration, human rights, and democracy. The Muslim population surge has led to many small wars throughout Eurasia, and the rise of China could lead to a global war of civilizations. Huntington offers a strategy for the West to preserve its unique culture and emphasizes the need for people everywhere to learn to coexist in a complex, multipolar, muliticivilizational world.
亚洲部分不是很深刻 但是1996年写的关于伊斯兰和西方文明的冲突从2001年之后正在被“实现” 可惜没有解决方案

评分大一读物
评分谢谢毛杰!
评分要挑刺的话当然有很多刺可以挑,基本的史观格局说到底也是来自 Spengler,但对于被 liberalism 惯坏了的当代人来说,是密密麻麻充满了对「西方到底是什么、应该怎么做」在正典中是如何回答的苦口婆心的提醒。也正是这个使得其预言无比精准。
