"Wolf's intention is to show that European expansion not only transformed the historical trajectory of non-European societies but also reconstituted their historical accounts of their societies before European intervention. . . . His historical sweep and analytic breadth are astounding, and he gives approximately equal weight to historical 'winners' and 'losers.'" --Michael S. Kimmel, American Journal of Sociology
"Wolf's intention is to explain the development and nature of the chains of cause and consequence which linked populations in the post-1400 world. The outcome is a tightly structured and elegant book." --Oceania
"The work of a powerful theoretical intelligence, but one informed by a lived sense of social realities." --Times Literary Supplement
"In this big and important book, Eric Wolf begins and ends with the assertion that anthropology must pay more attention to history. . . . It is with pleasure, then, that one reads a critical analysis that rejects pseudo-historical oppositions and explores with such care the historical processes by which primitive and peasant pasts have become a fundamentally altered primitive, peasant, and proletarian present." --William Roseberry, Dialectical Anthropology
"Wolf has created a history of connection rather than one of segregation. . . . This absorbing and stimulating book . . . provides a convincing and, dare I say, new perspective. . . . By emphasizing a common past, Wolf moves away from weary polarities of active 'white' centre and passive 'non-white' periphery and suggests both a more complex and a more informed sense of the relationship between Europe and the rest of the world."--Ben Jay, European Update
"Wolf's empirical knowledge is exceptionally wide. . . . He relies on a skillful selection of phenomena in time and space that are reasonably representative of the totality. . . . The book is very well written and with a profoundly human touch."--Magnus Mörner, Ethnos
Sahlins是现存不多的人类学理论家,他的很多文章都值得一读,但老头儿也有雷人的评论。比如他说Eric Wolf的这本书:虽然以恢复“没有历史”的人的“历史”为目标,但所表现的依然是西方主导的近代世界史。我坚信老头儿写下这番话的时候一定是一脸坏笑:这么多年的老哥们儿了,...

评分Wolf在导论中表明其核心坚持是对“过程”的强调。基于此,“民族”“文化”“×人”这些曾经出于某种独断论而长期被当作自明主体的概念,现在必须作为生成的历史过程来对待。这些语词的能指和所指都处在极其广大的历史之流当中,虽然是按完全不同的脉络。而且,它们的发展和演...
评分翻的不怎么好 作者好像持的是老马的劳动价值论,发达国家对第三世界的剥削论(从书名也可以看出来), 至少可以对移民史(比如巴西为什么会有意大利人,以梳理欧洲足坛,欧洲南美双重国籍的一些人物的成因),和一些经济作物(可可,橡胶等)的在全球的种植史 角度还是没见...
评分“无论是那些宣称他们拥有自己历史的人,还是那些被认为没有历史的人民,都是同一个历史轨道中的当事人。” 这是汗青堂的系列丛书, 豆瓣评分8.9, 翻完之后, 我认为它完全无法吸引我。 以前我们说起历史, 能想起来的都是著名人物, 作者作为人类学家, 整本书力求告诉读者,...
台版大陆版都出了,很厚,很经典
评分What are feasible concepts other than the "capital" for writing pure analytical histories over long-span of time?
