First published in 1956, The Power Elite stands as a contemporary classic of social science and social criticism. C. Wright Mills examines and critiques the organization of power in the United States, calling attention to three firmly interlocked prongs of power: the military, corporate, and political elite. The Power Elite can be read as a good account of what was taking place in America at the time it was written, but its underlying question of whether America is as democratic in practice as it is in theory continues to matter very much today. What The Power Elite informed readers of in 1956 was how much the organization of power in America had changed during their lifetimes, and Alan Wolfe's astute afterword to this new edition brings us up to date, illustrating how much more has changed since then. Wolfe sorts out what is helpful in Mills book and which of his predictions have not come to bear, laying out the radical changes in American capitalism, from intense global competition and the collapse of communism to rapid technological transformations and ever changing consumer tastes. The Power Elite has stimulated generations of readers to think about the kind of society they have and the kind of society they might want, and deserves to be read by every new generation.

评分还没有读完，但这本书读起来让我感觉有些吃力，一方面作者的思路似乎有些混乱，想要扩充的东西有点多，虽然道理都懂，但思路理清楚真的很难。我读的是时代华文书局的版本，感觉翻译的质量有些差问题，很多时候一句话读完就感觉摸不着头脑，语法结构很乱。另外，麻烦不要那么忠...
评分在我们的心目中，美国由于是在一张白纸上规划的国家，制度设置的基础就是民主政治的充分实现、自由经济的竞争发展、公民权利的强力保障、政府权力的相互制衡，总之是人人羡慕不来的现代国家典范。但是，看了美国查尔斯.赖特.米尔斯的《权力精英》之后，才知道也许事实并非...
评分《权力精英》 米尔斯 米尔斯首先给权力精英下了一个定义，他认为，“权力精英由这样一些人组成——他们的地位可以使他们超越普通人所处的环境；他们的地位可以使他们做出具有重要后果的决定。”（p2）或者我们可以给出更具体的定义，“所谓的权力精英，指的...

The Weberian "unholy" trinity of social monopoly...╮(╯_╰)╭
评分部分章节。只能说米尔斯实在太狠，字句如刀，刀刀见血。他对interlocking directorates 的论述恐怕是对连锁董事最早的观察，充满着反讽和批判，却在后世让这些在bureaucratic体系里挣扎的学术民工不断生产出苍白无力的工业量化分析，不得不让人感叹天才已死，世事无常。昔日玫瑰以其名留芳，今人所持唯玫瑰之名。
评分非常犀利。和Dahl的Who Governs放在一起看会更加有意思。对于当下体制的批判和对于实际民主制度运作过程的解释其实是相辅相成的两个传统，在美国的学术界里，我觉得这两个传统真正做到了相互切磋砥砺。
