Weapons of the Weak is an ethnography by James C. Scott that studies the effects of the Green Revolution in rural Malaysia. One of the main objectives of the study is to make an argument that the Marxian and Gramscian ideas of false consciousness and hegemony are incorrect. He develops this conclusion throughout the book, through the different scenarios and characters that come up during his time of fieldwork in the village. This publication, based on 2 years of fieldwork (1978-1980), focuses on the local class relations in a small rice farming community of 70 households in the main paddy-growing area of Kedah in Malaysia. Introduction of the Green Revolution in 1976 eliminated 2/3 of the wage-earning opportunities for smallholders and landless laborers. The main ensuing class struggle is analyzed being the ideological struggle in the village and the practice of resistance itself consisting of: foot-dragging, dissimulation, desertion, false compliance, pilfering, feigned ignorance and sabotage acts. Rich and poor are engaged in an unremitting if silent struggle to define changes in land tenure, mechanization and employment to advance their own interests, and to use values that they share to control the distribution of status, land, work and grain.
《弱者的武器》(农民反抗的日常形式这个副标题在中国被阉割了)是我看的第一本国外社会学的实地调查的著作,不知道是国外的社会学家写书喜欢引论文和注批注的传统还是其他原因,如同《新教伦理与资本主义精神》将近2/3的注释长度令读者陷入了一种“恶性肿胀的批注之荼毒”...
评分本来要到上海图书馆去借这本《弱者的武器》,但是因为历史所城市史方向的一位同学愿意主动借给我这本书,所以也就不用费很大功夫便能够得到文本了。而且当写下这篇读书笔记的时候,距离本书阅毕已经三天时间了。从物理时间的角度看,这个时间确实非常短暂,但是这三天的时间对...
评分这是一本写于20多年前的著作,在其译为中文的短短几年里,却因其有趣的主题,被众多学科心照不宣地引为重要的参考书目,这些学科不但包括人类学、政治学,还有“三农问题”等等研究领域。 与同时代受“越南战争和左翼学术界对民族解放战争迷恋的刺激下”诞生的诸多作...
评分学者的本事就是:能把一个用一句话能说明的道理,扩展成一部厚厚的大书。也许我对学术不够理解,学术的精妙不仅在于观点,还在于让人信服的论述过程。 本书撇开了宏大的农民革命视角,将焦点对准农民日常生活中琐碎、持久的抵抗形式,符合人类学家的做派。此外,...
评分1、“弱者”是指什么? 马来西亚赛达卡村庄的穷人。 2、弱者的“武器”是什么? 实际上指的是赛达卡村庄农民反抗的日常形式。包括偷懒、装糊涂、开小差、假装顺从、偷懒、装疯卖傻、诽谤、纵火、暗中破坏等。农民的日常反抗可以适用于阶级分析法吗?在作者看来,似乎不...
画风马上就变了。应该算是采用民族志法研究抗争的早期学者。
评分很粗略的过了中文版,因为距离课堂讨论的DDL只有一天了。英文版大致翻了下,好写response。好在对于斯科特在中国的衍生品还算熟悉,总算能交差。不过这次的讨论主要围绕政治学学者如何用semiotic practice的方法,如何理解文化这种dialetical relationship between practices and systems of significations, 以及民族志调查与社会科学所要求的parsimonious, general的理论之间的对接。趁着写response, 又重新梳理了下近几年中外对于土改、集体化的口述史研究,感觉清晰了一点。
评分Scott想借着农民那些“磨洋工”式的抗争,说明老马的意识形态理论,和葛兰西的霸权理论,都是有问题的。意识形态不意味着全面的思想控制,甚至不意味着底层民众对于权贵阶层合法性的认同,它只是限制了人们对于社会变革可能性的认识。而抗争并不一定需要一个很彻底的good sense,在某种条件下,磨洋工式的抵抗也能给社会带来根本性的变革。这个人的书总是给人一种乍一看很有趣但又很经不起琢磨的感觉。一下子还说不好问题在哪里。但比起《国家的视角》还是好了很多。
评分每次上来豆瓣找书评的时候,是我对中国的未来最有希望的时候,简直是热泪盈眶。
