作者還是想說民主是個好東西. 此外, 對外援助通訊器材比食品藥物更有利於推進被援助國的民主
評分一本本可以用十頁紙講完的書。Read the first few chapters and skim the rest. 這本書最大的問題就是業餘,而且花瞭太多時間去業餘。淺薄的另一麵就是很多細節沒有得到起碼的有用的解釋。比如說,當他所認為導緻腐敗的元素一直是固定的時候,那他就有必要解釋一下在不同時間不同地點為什麼checks on corruption産生瞭變化。

評分這本書告訴我,如果我實在無法移民到發達國傢,我可以考慮移民到一個不那麼發達的民主國傢,但是動作要快,因為他們發達的速度都驚人,時不我待。還有這場“反復”運動的主要目的是減少製勝聯盟的人數,同時所有的其他政策都在指嚮更為“獨菜”的方嚮,也就是說,如果成功,將是更加暗無天日的世界,而失敗幾乎隻能期待經濟崩潰,也絕對是大多數人的損失。另外,美國不需要一個“閩豬”的瓷器,更符閤他們利益的是一個聽話的獨裁政府。

In this title, two renowned political scientists make the contrarian, research-based case that - regardless of any other factors political scientists or historians may find relevant - the calculations and actions of rulers are the driving force of all politics, and the primary goal of rulers is to maintain power as long as possible. In this clever and accessible book, Bueno de Mesquita and Smith introduce us to their perspective of the political world. They bare the logic of politics, starting from the simple premise that leaders pursue their own ends, and that populations either have, or more often don't have, the power to constrain them to a significant degree. The book is organized by a series interconnected questions, among them: Why do leaders who wreck their countries keep their jobs for so long? Why do autocracies have dismal economic policies? How are there so many suffering people in resource-rich lands? Why do 'natural disasters' disproportionately strike poor nations? Why do 'evil-doers' so often collect loads of foreign aid? Why are democracies so good at war? In answering these questions, the authors look at politics, the choices of public policies, and even decisions about war and peace as lying outside of conventional thinking about culture and history. They set aside ideas of civic virtue and psychopathology. Such notions simply are not central to understanding what leaders do and why they do it. Instead, Bueno de Mesquita and Smith see politicians as self-interested louts, just the sort of people you wouldn't want to have over for dinner, but without whom you might not have dinner at all. And from this perspective, they are able to answer some perplexing mysteries of politics, shed light on what we read in the newspapers every single day, and offer realistic ways of improving human governance.
刘瑜女士将本书暗示为“民主颂”,完全同意。但她直接把最后一章“怎么办”的内容忽略了。我摘几段,大家就明白为什么了:(这里的“我们”指美国)“当某个外国的人民普遍反对我们的根本利益,我们获得想要的东西的最好办法就是让该国人民处于按美国人民意愿办事的独裁者的高...
評分据作者称支撑“选择人理论”的数理模型都在《政治生存的逻辑》一书里,本书仅是个面向普通人的入门通俗读物,所以这书的理论看起来非常粗略框架,基本上摈除了宗教、意识形态、传统文化习俗什么的影响,更丝毫不扯伟光正的理想和道统,纯从群体社会中个人的“政治生存直觉”出...
評分年初在zaker上看到对本书的书评,看完书评以后就有看原著的强烈兴趣了。 作者在这本书里把对政治长达近20年的研究变成了普通老百姓都能看懂的通俗文字。 本书对于理解各国政府的行为有极大帮助,包括导致某搜索网站最终404的事件。本书对于统治的基本规则,不同执政者如何掌权...
