First published in 2000, Dipesh Chakrabarty's influential "Provincializing Europe" addresses the mythical figure of Europe that is often taken to be the original site of modernity in many histories of capitalist transition in non-Western countries. This imaginary Europe, Dipesh Chakrabarty argues, is built into the social sciences. The very idea of historicizing carries with it some peculiarly European assumptions about disenchanted space, secular time, and sovereignty. Measured against such mythical standards, capitalist transition in the third world has often seemed either incomplete or lacking. "Provincializing Europe" proposes that every case of transition to capitalism is a case of translation as well - a translation of existing worlds and their thought - categories into the categories and self-understandings of capitalist modernity. Now featuring a new preface in which Chakrabarty responds to his critics, this book globalizes European thought by exploring how it may be renewed both for and from the margins.

若不是required reading,真的死都不会读这种玩意... 别的不说,就这写作能力,能让人读下去都不错了... 读完了Part1,看到的也不过是一些老生常谈的调调,贵圈人都不懂什么叫“好好说话”吗? 当然不熟悉印度历史也是读不下去的一个个人原因了。
评分还是值得读的。不知道Chakrabarty最近发表在批评探索上的文章谈了什么。
评分Only introduction and epilogue; need to revisit in the future. Critique of historicism or linear historicism?
评分很不错的书,也很有用,historicism这个概念很给力。subaltern studies我很喜欢。
