For two thousand years the disparate groups that now reside in Zomia (a mountainous region the size of Europe that consists of portions of seven Asian countries) have fled the projects of the organized state societies that surround them?slavery, conscription, taxes, corvée labor, epidemics, and warfare. This book, essentially an ?anarchist history,? is the first-ever examination of the huge literature on state-making whose author evaluates why people would deliberately and reactively remain stateless. Among the strategies employed by the people of Zomia to remain stateless are physical dispersion in rugged terrain; agricultural practices that enhance mobility; pliable ethnic identities; devotion to prophetic, millenarian leaders; and maintenance of a largely oral culture that allows them to reinvent their histories and genealogies as they move between and around states.

In accessible language, James Scott, recognized worldwide as an eminent authority in Southeast Asian, peasant, and agrarian studies, tells the story of the peoples of Zomia and their unlikely odyssey in search of self-determination. He redefines our views on Asian politics, history, demographics, and even our fundamental ideas about what constitutes civilization, and challenges us with a radically different approach to history that presents events from the perspective of stateless peoples and redefines state-making as a form of ?internal colonialism.? This new perspective requires a radical reevaluation of the civilizational narratives of the lowland states. Scott?s work on Zomia represents a new way to think of area studies that will be applicable to other runaway, fugitive, and marooned communities, be they Gypsies, Cossacks, tribes fleeing slave raiders, Marsh Arabs, or San-Bushmen.

上个学期社会学课上的老教授超喜欢韦伯。他喜欢韦伯在新教伦理里的想法,他说他希望有人证明能它,因为他喜欢这个理论。但是他也说,最近的社会学,大家都在问“你怎么证明这个”之类的问题,却没有人写出比韦伯涂尔干更深刻的思想。 教授说这话之前我读了斯科特的《国家的视...

(《云南社会科学》2019年第三期) | 王晓毅 如果将社会发展看做一个简单的线性发展过程,山地社会往往被看做是落后的,并被认为会在先进文明的影响下,逐步发展起来。但是斯科特在《逃避统治的艺术》一书中,构建了与这种想象不同的山地文明,山地为山地居民提供了保护,从而...

人类学家们前赴后继,造出Zomia和Zomia+,不知道的还以为是中国产的新型手机要跟iPhone x plus 一决高下呢。Scott此书一出,Journal of Global History甚至发专刊讨论。可惜愚公移了山,智叟po了张跟山遗址的合影抢风头,van Schendel肯定在家哭吧。

评分

太ideological了, 为了迎合自己的无政府立场, 只要碰到governing就说成坏的, 碰到egalitarianism就说成好的, 什么现象都往这上面套, 连文字丢失都说是是为了防止form a state... 此外就是太啰嗦了, 几句话正着说反着说, 感觉没有显然的逻辑联系也凑在一起说, 所以读起来很慢...

评分

逃离国家——逃离的是臣民的身份,而不是与国家的关系。实际上,山民一直在寻找与国家的适当关系,才能让自己生存下来。

评分

非常喜欢这种无政府主义的态度,喜欢这种人类学理路的底层视角。写作风格不算好,啰里啰嗦很难读,用词也很奇葩。

评分

观点蛮讨喜,但是结构和论证,我是真的不太喜欢……
