While this book will not have the impact of Davis's City of Quartz--a scathing indictment of L.A.'s environmental ravagement, economic disparity and racial divides--in a perfect world, it would. Its subject is nothing less than the creation of what we now call "The Third World," through a complex series of seemingly disparate natural and market-related events beginning in the 1870s. Davis dives into the data and journalism of the period with a vengeance, showing that the seemingly unprecedented droughts across northern Africa, India and China in the 1870s and 1890s are consistent with what we now know to be El Ni¤o's effects, and that it was political and market forces (which are never impersonal, Davis insists), and not a lack of potential stores and transportation, that kept grain from the more than 50 million people who starved to death.
與我寫過的一個小文章觀點很像,自視為對我社會學想象力的肯定哈哈。從國際政治經濟學的角度來解釋中印的衰落,觀點並不新鮮。但從1877年和1890年兩次厄爾尼諾齣發,解釋自然特徵是如何與國際政治經濟秩序交織在一起,破壞瞭東亞既有的生産秩序的,角度還是挺刁鑽。
評分在世界性氣候危機下,為什麼有的國傢存活下來,有的卻受到重創?明顯是和「脆弱性」有關,無論是環境的還是社會經濟的。原來嚮F老師提議讀這本書,老師本能地反對環境決定論,可能是我要重讀並尋求解釋的地方。
評分挺可怕的
