First published in 1956, The Power Elite stands as a contemporary classic of social science and social criticism. C. Wright Mills examines and critiques the organization of power in the United States, calling attention to three firmly interlocked prongs of power: the military, corporate, and political elite. The Power Elite can be read as a good account of what was taking place in America at the time it was written, but its underlying question of whether America is as democratic in practice as it is in theory continues to matter very much today. What The Power Elite informed readers of in 1956 was how much the organization of power in America had changed during their lifetimes, and Alan Wolfe's astute afterword to this new edition brings us up to date, illustrating how much more has changed since then. Wolfe sorts out what is helpful in Mills book and which of his predictions have not come to bear, laying out the radical changes in American capitalism, from intense global competition and the collapse of communism to rapid technological transformations and ever changing consumer tastes. The Power Elite has stimulated generations of readers to think about the kind of society they have and the kind of society they might want, and deserves to be read by every new generation.
The late C. Wright Mills, Professor of Sociology at Columbia University, was a leading critic of modern American civilization. Alan Wolfe is University Professor and Professor of Political Science and Sociology at Boston University. He is the author or editor of more than ten books, including Marginalized in the Middle and One Nation, After All.

評分1.“美國曾是一個小而美的地方,現在她變瞭。”這句話社會學傢說瞭六十年。2.書裏幾乎每個重要觀察,都在後世衍生齣豐富的文獻,可怕。3.有趣的是,一些被歸因於越戰或民權運動或石油危機的政治變化,在米爾斯的書裏已經體現瞭。4.國內不平等研究最喜歡引用的著作之一,卻恰恰反襯他們的蒼白。
評分部分章節。隻能說米爾斯實在太狠,字句如刀,刀刀見血。他對interlocking directorates 的論述恐怕是對連鎖董事最早的觀察,充滿著反諷和批判,卻在後世讓這些在bureaucratic體係裏掙紮的學術民工不斷生産齣蒼白無力的工業量化分析,不得不讓人感嘆天纔已死,世事無常。昔日玫瑰以其名留芳,今人所持唯玫瑰之名。

在我们的心目中,美国由于是在一张白纸上规划的国家,制度设置的基础就是民主政治的充分实现、自由经济的竞争发展、公民权利的强力保障、政府权力的相互制衡,总之是人人羡慕不来的现代国家典范。但是,看了美国查尔斯.赖特.米尔斯的《权力精英》之后,才知道也许事实并非...
評分还没有读完,但这本书读起来让我感觉有些吃力。一方面作者的思路似乎有些混乱,想要扩充的东西有点多,虽然道理都懂,但思路理清楚很难。另外我读的是北京时代华文书局的版本,感觉翻译的质量有些问题,很多时候一句话读完就感觉摸不着头脑,语法结构很乱。还有,麻烦不要那么...

評分1950年代的美国,是一个“物质繁荣、国家主义甚嚣尘上和政治真空”的时代。大多数美国人处在一种自鸣得意的状态中,知识分子们也将自己出卖给保守主义情绪。这时,米尔斯写下了《权力精英》,告诉美国人他们处在怎样一种糟糕的境地当中:这个国家已经被商界、政界和军界的权力...
評分书总体上还是很好的,但翻译上工夫不够,估计也就几个研究生干的活。现在像过去那样用几年十几年把一本书翻译好的精神实在是太欠缺了。 本书是社会学著作,但因为是从批判主义入手,所以学院气不是那么浓,理论上也没太多高深的地方,但很给人启发,事实有时往往比理论...
