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.

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?
评分断断续续看了一年多。。
评分这本书给我涨了很多房产方面的知识 作者所指出的这种基于“共识”的治理模式确实是存在的 但只用这一条思路来解释基层治理未免有点以偏概全 似乎还有很多反抗、矛盾和别的渠道没有涉及 仿佛政府一顿操作猛如虎 大家各归其位乖乖听话打造和谐社会 有点太往福柯的规训社会那一套上靠了 虽然我是福柯的粉丝 但从我的感觉上来看。。中国人好像没那么好管
评分both the objects and the subjects, both recipients and providers of the state subsidies.
评分虽然作者对“共识”概念的定义很有意义,但还是不太喜欢这种以治理术为主线框架的论述(维稳目的下的治理术)。事实上中央与地方的矛盾、地方政府维稳政绩和利益获取间时常存在的冲突、治理手段中的非理性因素(很多可能来源于上述的矛盾和冲突)应该是政策学界的常识,但到了这本书里却变成了一幅和谐、统一、理性的画面。前一阵子出台的拆除围墙的政策也可能会让作者的某些论述站不住脚。
