图书描述

Randol Contreras came of age in the South Bronx during the 1980s, a time when the community was devastated by cuts in social services, a rise in arson and abandonment, and the rise of crack-cocaine. For this riveting book, he returns to the South Bronx with a sociological eye and provides an unprecedented insider's look at the workings of a group of Dominican drug robbers. Known on the streets as "Stickup Kids", these men raided and brutally tortured drug dealers storing large amounts of heroin, cocaine, marijuana, and cash. As a participant observer, Randol Contreras offers both a personal and theoretical account for the rise of the Stickup Kids and their violence. He mainly focuses on the lives of neighborhood friends, who went from being crack dealers to drug robbers once their lucrative crack market opportunities disappeared. The result is a stunning, vivid, on-the-ground ethnographic description of a drug robbery's violence, the drug market high life, the criminal life course, and the eventual pain and suffering experienced by the casualties of the Crack Era. Provocative and eye-opening, "The Stickup Kids" urges us to explore the ravages of the drug trade through weaving history, biography, social structure, and drug market forces. It offers a revelatory explanation for drug market violence by masterfully uncovering the hidden social forces that produce violent and self-destructive individuals. Part memoir, part penetrating analysis, this book is engaging, personal, deeply informed, and entirely absorbing.

作者自诩为insider的一部社会学纪实作品。A work with emotionally beautiful tone，但该运用sociological imagination的时候（如第一章）也毫不含糊, 非常清晰的讲述了社会大背景如何导致了两代drug epidemics的兴衰，也将Katz和C.Wright Mills的理论作了对比。个人还是非常喜欢这种hybrid的风格的。

作者不大扎实的理论功底使得时而插入的分析稍显混乱，社会学家当把握民族志写作风格，不过读到结尾时真心被书中的人物感动了，尤其是Gus这个Robber Elites的没落以及Pablo看似愚蠢的赚钱计划。毒贩被污名化后重视身份，他们的思考、行为已经被大时代/小监狱里那些努力就能成功、贪婪是对的给局限了。“男权”代表着强权、财、性、暴力，刺激着他们的神经情感、鼓舞着他们不能回头。当政客多数为政治立场而行事时，社会学家所关注的是少数群体的低收入（资本家反复压榨）、对毒品犯罪过度监管打击后的阶级冲突、资本主义金钱至上的观念（错误的文化资本）对人的洗脑。推荐作者开篇谈作为局内人被现状同化、冷漠，甚至挣扎于回答自己是否会沦落像朋友一样的人，从而反思方法论、回应即不当牛仔也不切入犯罪也不道德平凡，很出色M

在correctional center和六位incarcerated men一起阅读了这本书的introduction。至今都记忆犹新他们对于C. Wright Mills社会学想象力的赞许（或者说I wish I had known this term earlier的唏嘘）。他们对于Jack Katz的理论也提出极其犀利的批判，他们问我到底是第一次为了寻找pleasure而犯罪；还是在第一次的犯罪过程中，体会到了sensual的满足感，之后继续寻找...... 阅读的过程中，每一章节都让我欲罢不能。里面对于种族和男权的刻画极其到位。我也很深有感触作者在Introduction里面提及的desensitaization和triple representational dilemma!
