Chinese residential communities are places of intense governing and an arena of active political engagement between state and society. In The Government Next Door, Luigi Tomba investigates how the goals of a government consolidated in a distant authority materialize in citizens' everyday lives. Chinese neighborhoods reveal much about the changing nature of governing practices in the country. Government action is driven by the need to preserve social and political stability, but such priorities must adapt to the progressive privatization of urban residential space and an increasingly complex set of societal forces. Tomba’s vivid ethnographic accounts of neighborhood life and politics in Beijing, Shenyang, and Chengdu depict how such local "translation" of government priorities takes place.
Tomba reveals how different clusters of residential space are governed more or less intensely depending on the residents’ social status; how disgruntled communities with high unemployment are still managed with the pastoral strategies typical of the socialist tradition, while high-income neighbors are allowed greater autonomy in exchange for a greater concern for social order. Conflicts are contained by the gated structures of the neighborhoods to prevent systemic challenges to the government, and middle-class lifestyles have become exemplars of a new, responsible form of citizenship. At times of conflict and in daily interactions, the penetration of the state discourse about social stability becomes clear.
Luigi Tomba is a Senior Fellow at the Australian Centre on China in the World, Australian National University. He is the author of Paradoxes of Labour Reform: Chinese Labour Theory and Practice from Socialism to the Market and coeditor of The China Journal.
在了解学术脉络以后觉得还是写得很好的。
评分理论野心大,对城市新兴“中产阶级”的政治行动力的判断也挺到位的。但相比起来田野材料就太碎太单薄了,撑不起来那些论点。
评分第五章讨论中产阶级的示范性功能,材料分散,按理说作者的田野里应该有足够的材料,根本不需要去引用上海世博会的指导册。也没有什么新意。对打破“新自由主义”的迷思有用。ps:作者似乎不喜欢使用受访者的大段quotation。这是偏政治学的研究的一般操作还是?
评分both the objects and the subjects, both recipients and providers of the state subsidies.
