THEDA SKOCPOL (PhD, Harvard, 1975) is the Victor S. Thomas Professor of Government and Sociology at Harvard University. At Harvard, she has served as Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (2005-2007) and as Director of the Center for American Political Studies (2000-2006). In 1996, Skocpol served as President of the Social Science History Association, an interdisciplinary professional group, and in 2002-03, she served as President of the American Political Science Association during the centennial of this leading professional body. In 2007, she was awarded the Johan Skytte Prize in Political Science for her "visionary analysis of the significance of the state for revolutions, welfare, and political trust, pursued with theoretical depth and empirical evidence." The Skytte Prize is one of the largest and most prestigious in political science and is awarded annually by the Skytte Foundation at Uppsala University (Sweden) to the scholar who in the view of the foundation has made the most valuable contribution to the discipline. Skocpol has also been elected to membership in all three major U.S. interdisciplinary honor societies: the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (elected 1994), the American Philosophical Society (elected 2006), and the National Academy of Sciences (elected 2008).

Skocpol's work covers an unusually broad spectrum of topics including both comparative politics (States and Social Revolutions, 1979) and American politics (Protecting Soldiers and Mothers: The Political Origins of Social Policy in the United States, 1992). Among her other works are Bringing the State Back In (1985, with Peter Evans and Dietrich Rueschemeyer); Social Policy in the United States (1995); Boomerang: Clinton's Health Security Effort and the Turn Against Government in US Politics (1996); Civic Engagement in American Democracy (1999, with Morris Fiorina); Diminished Democracy: From Membership to Management in American Civic Life (2003); Inequality and American Democracy: What We Know and What We Need to Learn (2005, with Lawrence R. Jacobs); What a Mighty Power We Can Be: African American Fraternal Groups and The Struggle for Racial Equality (2006, with Ariane Liazos and Marshall Ganz); and The Transformation of American Politics: Activist Government and the Rise of Conservatism (2007, with Paul Pierson). Her books and articles have been widely cited in political science literature and have won numerous awards, including the 1993 Woodrow Wilson Award of the American Political Science Association for the best book in political science for the previous year. Skocpol's research focuses on U.S. social policy and civic engagement in American democracy, including changes since the 1960s. She has recently launched new projects on the development of U.S. higher education and on the transformations of U.S. federal policies in the Obama era.

This is a 1979 book by political scientist and sociologist Theda Skocpol, published by Cambridge University Press and explaining the causes of revolutions through the structural functionalism sociological paradigm comparative historical analysis of the French Revolution of 1787 through the early 19th century French Revolution, the Russian Revolution of 1917 through the 1930s Russian Revolution and the Chinese Revolution of 1911 through the 1960s Cultural Revolution. Skocpol argues that these three cases, despite being spread over a century and a half, are similar in the sense that all three were Social Revolutions

Skocpol asserts that Social Revolutions are rapid and basic transformations of a society's state and class structures. This is different from, for example, a mere 'rebellion' which merely involves a revolt of subordinate classes but may not create structural change and from a Political Revolution that may change state structures but not social structures. Industrialization can transform social structure but not change the political structure. What is unique about Social Revolutions, she says, is that basic changes in social structure and political structure occur in a mutually reinforcing fashion and these changes occur through intense sociopolitical conflict.

读后感

译者序写得很好,是很好的全书概括,提纲挈领。 本书是第三代革命研究中的代表。第一代革命研究在20世纪初到40年底啊,追寻革命的历史事实,所谓“自然史学派”,描述并总结;第二代试图找寻革命的普适性理论,是二战后到70年代;第三代便是本书,强调结构性视角,从70年代中期...

斯考切波强调“结构性视角”,既反对此前美国学界流行的把革命原因归结于某种单一意志因素,也反对马克思主义阶级斗争理论的教条倾向。她的核心观点之一是,大规模社会革命是结构性矛盾的产物,换言之是“发生(happen)”的,而不是“制造(make)”出来的。在这种前提下,斯...

一、梳理:社会革命的演进类型与原因 对于我来说这本《国家与社会革命》是一本读起来令人振奋的学术专著,它拥有宏大的历史叙事,但是并不因此显得繁琐铺陈,斯考切波通过结构性的视角和历史比较的方法,将近代史上三场宏伟的社会革命进行对比,分析了其发生的原因,也...

研究生院的方法课是一种蛮奇怪的存在。就像其他的graduate seminar一样,课上基本上不告诉你任何定论,而是把你当作成熟的研究者,直接把你带入到学术圈重要的辩论中去。但对于一个急切的想知道做研究是什么样子的、怎么上手做研究的一年级学生来说,直接读那种在方法论上吵来...

评分

还是值得一读的著作。放在学术史的角度去看会更有意思。

评分

主要是读方法论的部分,内容粗略扫过。友邻功夫熊猫多年前的书评很充分。对于comparative history和mechanism等有不少可供深入/吐槽的地方。还是相当不喜欢这个路数【尤其画虎不成反类犬的不少人】,但是不喜欢归不喜欢,学术史和史学理论的话怎么都绕不开。

评分

比较历史社会学的开山之作,可以说是提供了新的方法和视野,居功至伟。但是仍然有不少槽点,例如斯考切波过于想要把实证规律镶嵌在宏大叙事中;对“科学性”过于执着的追求导致了历史过程中的种种曲折与异质性被忽视;把史学研究当做给自己搬砖的从而忽视史料,令叙事过于空泛

评分

definitely classic。Taking a retrospection, It's Skocpol who brought me into the academic world.

评分

经验分析部分比方法论部分成功
