But that transformation has come at a grave human cost. This compelling book is the first to explore in detail the stories of neighborhoods destroyed, families uprooted, and life patterns lost to make way for the new Shanghai. Here we find the holdouts and protesters, men and women who have stubbornly resisted demolition and demanded justice. Qin Shao follows a reticent kindergarten teacher turned diehard petitioner; a descendant of gangsters and squatters who has held out in his home for a decade and become an amateur lawyer for other evictees; a Chinese Muslim who has struggled to recover his ancestral home in Xintiandi, an infamous site of gentrification dominated by a well-connected Hong Kong real estate tycoon. Highlighting the wrenching changes spawned by China’s reform era, Shao vividly portrays the relentless pursuit of growth and profit by the combined forces of corrupt power and money, the personal wreckage it has left behind, and the enduring human spirit it has unleashed.

评分上海旧城改造情境下的一本拆迁故事合集。抛开鲜明的立场不谈,作者明明没有兴趣进行理论上的归纳和提炼,但偏偏时不时要跳出叙事本身、对故事所发生的体制与情景加以评价。可想而知,这些评价和批判自然是既无新意更无洞见。当然,本书中的部分案例倒是有趣,值得再发掘。
