具体描述
Who exactly are China's new rich? This pioneering investigation introduces readers to the private lives—and the nightlives—of the powerful entrepreneurs and managers redefining success and status in the city of Chengdu. Over the course of more than three years, anthropologist John Osburg accompanied, and in some instances assisted, wealthy Chinese businessmen as they courted clients, partners, and government officials.
Drawing on his immersive experiences, Osburg invites readers to join him as he journeys through the new, highly gendered entertainment sites for Chinese businessmen, including karaoke clubs, saunas, and massage parlors—places specifically designed to cater to the desires and enjoyment of elite men. Within these spaces, a masculinization of business is taking place. Osburg details the complex code of behavior that governs businessmen as they go about banqueting, drinking, gambling, bribing, exchanging gifts, and obtaining sexual services.
These intricate social networks play a key role in generating business, performing social status, and reconfiguring gender roles. But many entrepreneurs feel trapped by their obligations and moral compromises in this evolving environment. Ultimately, Osburg examines their deep ambivalence about China's future and their own complicity in the major issues of post-Mao Chinese society—corruption, inequality, materialism, and loss of trust.

好书，当是小说看。读的时候让我想起了以前有个老师，很喜欢拉他的女研究生一起和官员吃饭，for the instrucmental purpose of pleasing the offcial in order that the offcial can provide data for his study
评分读了一、二、六章
评分补标，今天重见小时候做噩梦的油腻猪头们想起这本书。成都官商关系实录，ktv是试验场。但对贿赂的描述没涉及土地权的实质，搞得好像是双方道德问题：）
评分其中一章是刚来美国在development anthropology课上读的，那会还蛮激动的。在AAA听过作者本人说他怎么做的田野
评分一记响亮而清澈的耳光打在脸上，不禁脸颊发烫。后毛时代的中国官场商场，成为了外国人研究的主题，算是莫大的讽刺。结论章回归到中国人信仰问题的讨论，值得深思。其中涉及到人类学家接触敏感群体的一些伦理问题，可作为借鉴。 ps 看这本书田野描述部分的时候总是不自觉想到何伟阿怎么破＝＝＃
