具體描述

China has recently emerged as one of Africa’s top business partners, aggressively pursuing its raw materials and establishing a mighty presence in the continent’s booming construction market. Among major foreign investors in Africa, China has stirred the most fear, hope, and controversy. For many, the specter of a Chinese neocolonial scramble is looming, while for others China is Africa’s best chance at economic renewal. Yet, global debates about China in Africa have been based more on rhetoric than on empirical evidence. Ching Kwan Lee’s The Specter of Global China is the first comparative ethnographic study that addresses the critical question: Is Chinese capital a different kind of capital?

Offering the clearest look yet at China’s state-driven investment in Africa, this book is rooted in six years of extensive fieldwork in copper mines and construction sites in Zambia, Africa’s copper giant. Lee shadowed Chinese, Indian, and South African managers in underground mines, interviewed Zambian miners and construction workers, and worked with Zambian officials. Distinguishing carefully between Chinese state capital and global private capital in terms of their business objectives, labor practices, managerial ethos, and political engagement with the Zambian state and society, she concludes that Chinese state investment presents unique potential and perils for African development. The Specter of Global China will be a must-read for anyone interested in the future of China, Africa, and capitalism worldwide.

Inspiring. “中國之外的中國”真的是很新穎也很重要的一種視角。

對馬剋思，韋伯，波蘭尼的討論和貢獻一氣嗬成，順帶敲擊瞭下布迪厄式樣的文化研究。融閤瞭資本流動，勞工政治，國際閤作和文化衝突幾個熱門話題，巧妙地把“人”和“結構”結閤起來。最值得跪的地方是把各種messy的觀察整閤成為統計一個理論框架下的類似於processual的討論，以小見大，macro foundations of micro sociology的典型案例。

預期太高瞭以為是像ring leader for a day那種有故事的結果還是玩弄瞭很多概念而且馬剋思左派的normative judgment太多工人條件不好就一定是被剝削瞭贊比亞工人偷盜也是一種“counter-movement" 翻白眼最喜歡的是第四章說的在贊比亞的中國工人集體吃苦主義要多一點這樣的故事少一點強加的總結就好瞭|notes in Evernote
