图书描述

Mere decades ago, the population of Guangzhou was almost wholly Chinese. Today, it is a truly global city, a place where people from around the world go to make new lives, find themselves, or further their careers. A large number of those migrants are small-scale traders from Africa who deal in Chinese goods—often knock-offs or copies of high-end branded items—to send back to their home countries. In The World in Guangzhou, Gordon Mathews explores the question of how the city became such a center of "low-end" globalization and shows what we can learn from that experience similar transformations elsewhere in the world.

Through detailed ethnographic portraits, Mathews reveals a world of globalization based on informality, reputation, and trust rather than on formal contracts. How, he asks, can such informal relationships emerge between two groups—Chinese and Sub-Saharan Africans—that don't share a common language, culture, or religion? And what happens when Africans move beyond their status as temporary residents and begin to put down roots and establish families?

Full of unforgettable characters, The World in Guangzhou presents a compelling account of globalization at ground level and offers a look into the future of urban life as transnational connections continue to remake cities around the world.

风格深受这二三十年人类学的影响，并没有什么理论分析（很明显是不愿意），每一个话题下面基本都是详尽的经验呈现和研究对象的自我陈述，但也使得读到后面多少感到乏味——前文提到的事情在后面不断以另一种方式重现。却也因为书里所呈现的各种复杂力量的交织和来自不同文化背景的人在商业全球化中不可避免的互动，接受过合格人类学训练的人来到这种地方，研究问题/主题是会排着队送上门的。

花了大概一个月，终于搞定了这本相对简单的英文著作，很适合第一次读英文书的朋友。麦高登通过详细的民族志材料描写了在广州广园西和小北一带的非洲人，当然有少量笔墨描写其他族群。广州的非洲人主要来自尼日利亚的igbo，他们擅于经商，通过各种渠道将中国的copy或者赝品运送到非洲。作者还是延续了在重庆大厦的概念，提出低端全球化来理解整个过程。此外，还谈及到这些外国人在广州legal和illegal两种不同处境，以及广州警察对他们的态度。除了主要将笔墨放在描述低端全球化的整个链条，对比了不同城市如曼谷，伊斯坦布尔，迪拜等城市与广州之间的联系和差别，在最后麦高登还讨论了跨国婚姻是否能产生中国的奥巴马，涉及了中国的移民政策，他认为现在的广州依旧还是单一族群文化为主导的，但100年后或许能看到更加多元的广州。
