For over a decade now, the reigning consensus has held that the combination of free markets and democracy would transform the third world and sweep away the ethnic hatred and religious zealotry associated with underdevelopment. In this astute, original, and surprising investigation of the true impact of globalization, Yale Law School professor Amy Chua explains why many developing countries are in fact consumed by ethnic violence after adopting free market democracy.
Chua shows how in non-Western countries around the globe, free markets have concentrated starkly disproportionate wealth in the hands of a resented ethnic minority. These “market-dominant minorities” – Chinese in Southeast Asia, Croatians in the former Yugoslavia, whites in Latin America and South Africa, Indians in East Africa, Lebanese in West Africa, Jews in post-communist Russia – become objects of violent hatred. At the same time, democracy empowers the impoverished majority, unleashing ethnic demagoguery, confiscation, and sometimes genocidal revenge. She also argues that the United States has become the world’s most visible market-dominant minority, a fact that helps explain the rising tide of anti-Americanism around the world. Chua is a friend of globalization, but she urges us to find ways to spread its benefits and curb its most destructive aspects.
when democracy and free market come together.

评分全球化、自由、民主、市场,这些字眼很少或极少会与卢旺达大屠杀、阿以冲突以及911联系在一起,然而蔡美儿的这本《起火的世界》却将后者很大程度上归因于前者间的相互作用。 本书的核心论点是,在非西方世界中,市场和民主的全球扩展是集体仇恨与种族暴乱的一个首要的、并使之...

评分《虎妈战歌(Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother)》掀起的热潮渐渐淡去,作者Amy Chua也不再是Trendy Name了。令我惊奇的是她耶鲁大学教授的身份很快被发掘,却很少有人指出她也是畅销书《World On Fire》的作者。我是在2007年读的,本来早失了再谈的打算,但总觉得目前对她的讨论...
