Mun Young Cho is Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology at Yonsei University, Seoul.
Despite massive changes to its economic policies, China continues to define itself as socialist; since 1949 and into the present, the Maoist slogan "Serve the People" has been a central point of moral and political orientation. Yet several decades of market-based reforms have resulted in high urban unemployment, transforming the proletariat vanguard into a new urban poor. How do unemployed workers come to terms with their split status, economically marginalized but still rhetorically central to the way China claims to understand itself? How does a state dedicated to serving "the people" manage the poverty of its citizens? Mun Young Cho addresses these questions in a book based on more than two years of fieldwork in a decaying residential area of Harbin in the northeast province of Heilongjiang.
Cho analyzes the different experiences of poverty among laid-off urban workers and recent rural-to-urban migrants, two groups that share a common economic duress in China's Rustbelt cities but who rarely unite as one class owed protection by the state. Impoverished workers, she shows, seek protection and recognition by making claims about “the people” and what they deserve. They redeploy the very language that the party-state had once used to venerate them, although their claim often contradicts government directives regarding how “the people” should be reborn as self-managing subjects. The slogan “serve the people” is no longer a promise of the party-state but rather a demand made by the unemployed and the poor.
1. 正如作者所说,城市贫困 在中国是一个很敏感的事情。作为一名外国研究人员,作者不得不调整了两个观测地点,最终选择了哈尔滨的哈东区。钦佩作者的勇气,也赞叹国外的研究资助:国内哪有这样的学校,让你空转2年,才找到自己的研究对象?! 2. 作者完整地记录了他调研的准备...
評分唉,其实是想打二星了,基本上啊,材料组织上loosely organized, 比如the will to survive一章实在跟spector of people which is the central thread throughout the book没什么关系啊;理论运用上scatterly referenced,引了各种理论著作(甚至还有agamben的bare life),但是...
