重慶大廈續篇,作者還是一如既往地單純傻呼呼,但采訪內容很有趣,作者對未來很樂觀,盡管中國種族主義嚴重,極力阻止外國移民,但他認為中國一定會從ethnic國傢變成civic國傢,這是大國的必由之路。。。不管中國會怎麼樣,廣州作為全球低端製造業中心確實在衰落,估計會讓位給越南或印度的某個城市,廣州的外國人又會搬去這些地方,終究隻是曇花一現

評分風格深受這二三十年人類學的影響,並沒有什麼理論分析(很明顯是不願意),每一個話題下麵基本都是詳盡的經驗呈現和研究對象的自我陳述,但也使得讀到後麵多少感到乏味——前文提到的事情在後麵不斷以另一種方式重現。卻也因為書裏所呈現的各種復雜力量的交織和來自不同文化背景的人在商業全球化中不可避免的互動,接受過閤格人類學訓練的人來到這種地方,研究問題/主題是會排著隊送上門的。

Mere decades ago, the population of Guangzhou was almost wholly Chinese. Today, it is a truly global city, a place where people from around the world go to make new lives, find themselves, or further their careers. A large number of those migrants are small-scale traders from Africa who deal in Chinese goods—often knock-offs or copies of high-end branded items—to send back to their home countries. In The World in Guangzhou, Gordon Mathews explores the question of how the city became such a center of "low-end" globalization and shows what we can learn from that experience similar transformations elsewhere in the world.
Through detailed ethnographic portraits, Mathews reveals a world of globalization based on informality, reputation, and trust rather than on formal contracts. How, he asks, can such informal relationships emerge between two groups—Chinese and Sub-Saharan Africans—that don't share a common language, culture, or religion? And what happens when Africans move beyond their status as temporary residents and begin to put down roots and establish families?
Full of unforgettable characters, The World in Guangzhou presents a compelling account of globalization at ground level and offers a look into the future of urban life as transnational connections continue to remake cities around the world.
