小切口曆史人類學。從傢譜民間敘述和documents中重建明代軍戶製度的原貌。細緻有趣。作者從none-structural perspective挖掘被統治者如何maximize family interest和整體解構進行互動,順帶講瞭明代海上貿易與軍戶“倭寇”間的復雜關係,以及屯戍製度與土地流轉的張力。Impressive story telling!
評分"State interventions and the responses of people affected by those interventions generated transformations in the architecture of social space."
評分The conversation with James Scott is interesting. Not sure if I like the engagement with Foucault.
評分1)英文本剛齣版的時候就買瞭,但一直放在書架上沒打開來過。現在中譯本也已經齣瞭,還是老老實實拿來讀一遍吧;2)本書在學術上的貢獻,中譯本條目下薩博·羅薩博士(Dr. Sub Rosa XD...)的短評已經寫得很清楚瞭。我相信,對明清史,尤其是明清社會經濟史和法製史,以及華南研究有瞭解的朋友,應該是很能夠進入本書的脈絡的。其實Szonyi講的東西並不難,但值得注意的是,他用瞭怎樣的理論架構以及敘述脈絡,串起一些既有的研究,然後把故事講得清楚,說得精彩;3)關於「套利」,可以讀一讀宮崎廣和(Hirokazu Miyazaki)的Arbitraging Japan;4)突然發現宋怡明的三本書我都讀過,講金門的依稀還有印象,第一本Practicing Kinship已經完全不知道講的是啥瞭。。。
評分理論受影響於福柯的governmentality, James Scott的<The Art of Not Being Governed>還有再地化。其實一直覺得everyday politics本身就是一個用來挑戰福柯非常好用的概念。
Michael Szonyi is professor of Chinese history and director of the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies at Harvard University. His books include Practicing Kinship: Lineage and Descent in Late Imperial China and Cold War Island: Quemoy on the Front Line.
How did ordinary people in the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) deal with the demands of the state? In The Art of Being Governed, Michael Szonyi explores the myriad ways that families fulfilled their obligations to provide a soldier to the army. The complex strategies they developed to manage their responsibilities suggest a new interpretation of an important period in China's history as well as a broader theory of politics.
Using previously untapped sources, including lineage genealogies and internal family documents, Szonyi examines how soldiers and their families living on China's southeast coast minimized the costs and maximized the benefits of meeting government demands for manpower. Families that had to provide a soldier for the army set up elaborate rules to ensure their obligation was fulfilled, and to provide incentives for the soldier not to desert his post. People in the system found ways to gain advantages for themselves and their families. For example, naval officers used the military's protection to engage in the very piracy and smuggling they were supposed to suppress. Szonyi demonstrates through firsthand accounts how subjects of the Ming state operated in a space between defiance and compliance, and how paying attention to this middle ground can help us better understand not only Ming China but also other periods and places.
用民俗学、人类学的方法做了一个社区研究,核心聚焦点放在了社会学、政治学讨论的国家——社会——个人议题上。 具体内容不多介绍了,书最后部分作者自己已经总结得非常清楚了。 1.家谱研究的田野方法很有意思,之前隐约记得潘光旦先生有类似研究?不知道国内有没有其他人用这种...
