艾米·蔡(Amv Chua),美國耶魯法學院華裔教授,暢銷書《火焰上的世界》(World on Fire)的作者,也是國際貿易,種族鬥爭和全球化領域的著名專傢。她和丈夫,三個女兒一起生活在康涅狄格州的紐黑文市。
In a little over two centuries, America has grown from a regional power to a superpower, and to what is today called a hyperpower. But can America retain its position as the world’s dominant power, or has it already begun to decline?
Historians have debated the rise and fall of empires for centuries. To date, however, no one has studied the far rarer phenomenon of hyperpowers—those few societies that amassed such extraordinary military and economic might that they essentially dominated the world.
Now, in this sweeping history of globally dominant empires, bestselling author Amy Chua explains how hyperpowers rise and why they fall. In a series of brilliantly focused chapters, Chua examines history’s hyperpowers—Persia, Rome, Tang China, the Mongols, the Dutch, the British, and the United States—and reveals the reasons behind their success, as well as the roots of their ultimate demise.
Chua’s unprecedented study reveals a fascinating historical pattern. For all their differences, she argues, every one of these world-dominant powers was, at least by the standards of its time, extraordinarily pluralistic and tolerant. Each one succeeded by harnessing the skills and energies of individuals from very different backgrounds, and by attracting and exploiting highly talented groups that were excluded in other societies. Thus Rome allowed Africans, Spaniards, and Gauls alike to rise to the highest echelons of power, while the “barbarian” Mongols conquered their vast domains only because they practiced an ethnic and religious tolerance unheard of in their time. In contrast,
Nazi Germany and imperial Japan, while wielding great power, failed to attain global dominance as a direct result of their racial and religious intolerance.
But Chua also uncovers a great historical irony: in virtually every instance, multicultural tolerance eventually sowed the seeds of decline, and diversity became a liability, triggering conflict, hatred, and violence.
The United States is the quintessential example of a power that rose to global dominance through tolerance and diversity. The secret to America’s success has always been its unsurpassed ability to attract enterprising immigrants. Today, however, concerns about outsourcing and uncontrolled illegal immigration are producing a backlash against our tradition of cultural openness. Has America finally reached a “tipping point”? Have we gone too far in the direction of diversity and tolerance to maintain cohesion and unity? Will we be overtaken by rising powers like China, the EU or even India?
Chua shows why American power may have already exceeded its limits and why it may be in our interest to retreat from our go-it-alone approach and promote a new multilateralism in both domestic and foreign affairs.</p>
此人蔡美儿就是著名的虎妈,现在热炒她的教育子女的方式,人人都知道她是虎妈.却估计几乎没人知道她的这本书.稍微有点清醒头脑和民族自尊感的人,若是看了她的这本书,不,只要看前言.就知道这个炒的火热的虎妈,实际是个忘了自己身上流着中华民族血的人.短短的一篇前言,毫不掩饰的暴...
評分如何定义艾米·蔡虎妈书中所述的“宽容”,我想很难。它存在她所阐述论点中的一种语境里,不是原有意义上的“宽容”。我能想到的一个词来不太准确的简单替代这样的综合性的意思是“融合”。 可以比方来说就好像生命的繁衍,不断的融合会有新的生命,可以把它作为国家强盛不衰的...
評分对于里面很多其他国家的历史,很多是第一次看到不好评价。只能吸收一些以后丰富这方面知识以后再做评价。至于唐朝的一篇,感觉不是很全面。但,本人很乐意看到外国人如何评价中国的历史。而且感觉本书的修饰并不太大。其实某些把华人就当成中国人看的同胞们应该认清一个现实,...
評分提出一个很好的概念。但是过于有目的的选择和过滤事实,使得结论比较牵强。但是无论如何是一个值得考虑的观点。 文化的兴衰并不完全由开放程度和交流决定。和《枪炮细菌钢铁》一起看更有感触。这事儿,不好说。。。
