Richard Sennett teaches sociology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the London School of Economics. His recent publications include The Corrosion of Character and Respect in a World of Inequality.
The distinguished sociologist Richard Sennett surveys major differences between earlier forms of industrial capitalism and the more global, more febrile, ever more mutable version of capitalism that is taking its place. He shows how these changes affect everyday life—how the work ethic is changing; how new beliefs about merit and talent displace old values of craftsmanship and achievement; how what Sennett calls “the specter of uselessness” haunts professionals as well as manual workers; how the boundary between consumption and politics is dissolving.
In recent years, reformers of both private and public institutions have preached that flexible, global corporations provide a model of freedom for individuals, unlike the experience of fixed and static bureaucracies Max Weber once called an “iron cage.” Sennett argues that, in banishing old ills, the new-economy model has created new social and emotional traumas. Only a certain kind of human being can prosper in unstable, fragmentary institutions: the culture of the new capitalism demands an ideal self oriented to the short term, focused on potential ability rather than accomplishment, willing to discount or abandon past experience. In a concluding section, Sennett examines a more durable form of self hood, and what practical initiatives could counter the pernicious effects of “reform.”

评分在新資本主義文化一書裡,Richard Sennett要說的是這樣的問題:當韋伯的鐵籠打開後,人們是否變得自由了?答案顯言不是這樣,作者認為,因為生產模式、僱傭關係,以至福利制度的轉變,責任消失、忠義不存、技能失效、一種不安的無用感彌漫,在新資本主義下要安生立命,最終還是...

当Weeden和Grusky要求用occupation取代big class,重制21世纪的class map,也许他们自己都没有想到,这究竟可以意味着什么。现代人的困境和可能的自由,只能在职业里寻求。这是桑内特可以和韦伯对话的根本前提。
评分To be frank, it's a wonderful book, which sounds a little unacceptable and incompatitable to the mainstream of the country.
