好书,但是海外国企与中国国家之间的细微互动没有展现,估计也是作者拿不到的资料。
评分悬置“中国在非洲是不是新殖民主义”这种裹挟了太多国家政治polemic的问题,转而从“资本(而不是资本主义)的多样性”入手,通过对比中国SOE和跨国私企在赞比亚的采矿业(附带一些建筑业)的几个方面(资本积累逻辑、劳工体制、管理精神),为思考中国在非洲、中国和资本主义世界体系打开了局面。理论依托大致来自Weber(资本者的文化“精神”)、Polanyi(反资本的社会counter-movement)、Wallerstein(世界体系中的国家和资本的勾连)、William Sewell(资本主义的时间性,eventfulness/contingency)。对赞比亚本土的历史/政治语境和agency介绍得颇清楚;作者自陈后期能田野无阻是因为认识了之后上台成为国家副总理的反对党人士。
评分why Chinese capital is different.invest, labor, ethos.可以看出global china的研究大潮和作者labor研究的背景。两种资本比较背后是有关capitalism一条线下来的one ca, voa, market based, gov b的几种类型,她跟的是波兰尼,布洛维这条线。可贵的是最后作者范式转移的倡议。一个想法: 谁也不知道去哪,但先走出来。 everyday life, infrastructure, theoretical tracing paradigm, why not formal informal, colonism, classical or neo有启发(老觉得作者继续研究labor会更好,这个架子对她有点大
评分最后的附录可以作为一些方法论上面的参考。
评分如何提出好的经验研究问题? 1 跑到海外去!(这本书就是这样) 2 发掘史学研究! 3 新兴(热门)社会现象! (正经版: 关注时代的大问题,影响到大多数人的问题,涉及基本的文明格局的问题,影响世道人心的问题)
Ching Kwan Lee is professor of sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles. She is the author of Gender and the South China Miracle: Two Worlds of Factory Women and Against the Law: Labor Protests in China’s Rustbelt and Sunbelt.
China has recently emerged as one of Africa’s top business partners, aggressively pursuing its raw materials and establishing a mighty presence in the continent’s booming construction market. Among major foreign investors in Africa, China has stirred the most fear, hope, and controversy. For many, the specter of a Chinese neocolonial scramble is looming, while for others China is Africa’s best chance at economic renewal. Yet, global debates about China in Africa have been based more on rhetoric than on empirical evidence. Ching Kwan Lee’s The Specter of Global China is the first comparative ethnographic study that addresses the critical question: Is Chinese capital a different kind of capital?
Offering the clearest look yet at China’s state-driven investment in Africa, this book is rooted in six years of extensive fieldwork in copper mines and construction sites in Zambia, Africa’s copper giant. Lee shadowed Chinese, Indian, and South African managers in underground mines, interviewed Zambian miners and construction workers, and worked with Zambian officials. Distinguishing carefully between Chinese state capital and global private capital in terms of their business objectives, labor practices, managerial ethos, and political engagement with the Zambian state and society, she concludes that Chinese state investment presents unique potential and perils for African development. The Specter of Global China will be a must-read for anyone interested in the future of China, Africa, and capitalism worldwide.
