This shocking, lively exposure of the intellectual vacuity of today’s under thirty set reveals the disturbing and, ultimately, incontrovertible truth: cyberculture is turning us into a nation of know-nothings.
Can a nation continue to enjoy political and economic predominance if its citizens refuse to grow up?
For decades, concern has been brewing about the dumbed-down popular culture available to young people and the impact it has on their futures. At the dawn of the digital age, many believed they saw a hopeful answer: The Internet, e-mail, blogs, and interactive and hyper-realistic video games promised to yield a generation of sharper, more aware, and intellectually sophisticated children. The terms “information superhighway” and “knowledge economy” entered the lexicon, and we assumed that teens would use their knowledge and understanding of technology to set themselves apart as the vanguards of this new digital era.
That was the promise. But the enlightenment didn’t happen. The technology that was supposed to make young adults more astute, diversify their tastes, and improve their verbal skills has had the opposite effect. According to recent reports, most young people in the United States do not read literature, visit museums, or vote. They cannot explain basic scientific methods, recount basic American history, name their local political representatives, or locate Iraq or Israel on a map. The Dumbest Generation is a startling examination of the intellectual life of young adults and a timely warning of its consequences for American culture and democracy.
Drawing upon exhaustive research, personal anecdotes, and historical and social analysis, Mark Bauerline presents an uncompromisingly realistic portrait of the young American mind at this critical juncture, and lays out a compelling vision of how we might address its deficiencies.
Mark Bauerlein is a professor of English at Emory University and has worked as a director of Research and Analysis at the National Endowment for the Arts, where he oversaw studies about culture and American life.
赵晓力老师安利的,把年轻一代都黑粗翔了,掩卷似乎还能听见作者在痛心疾首地大呼,年轻人啊,要少上网多读书啊!!!
评分从非学术的角度来说,是部值得一读的书
评分同学早上给的..美国前浪喷后浪..看了几个章节作罢了..作者太理想化了..虽然他说的很有道理了..不过全书还是先下结论+再补充数据论据的手法。社交网络在我眼里是个contrivance..绝大部分是假的幻想。年轻人脑子没发育完整容易被忽悠.希特勒演讲的时候有人还激动的晕过去了..精神消费品消费的全是human emotion吧...大多数刷fb自拍的孩子必然要沦为平庸的样本点,否则谁来成就文体娱明星和花街职业收割机...让美国小青年捧起经典大部头历史政治静心阅读=反人性..这大叔真是太不接地气了。网络容易造成一个幻象就是学习知识很容易但easy access不等于easy acquisition..刀工因人而异吧。医院里大概25左右青光眼好几例30岁出头就飞蚊眼的挺多的。手机是个祸害!
评分倒不觉得数字时代让这代人变得“更笨”了,而是将那些本来就笨入膏肓的人更加明显地暴露了出来,并形成了一种“我笨故我在”甚至“我笨我自豪”的以笨为荣文化。

一本有趣的小书,虽然数据都来自美国,但是很多事实和特征适用各国于互联网一代,很容易找到样板。实际上,由互联网带来的弱龄化,以及一大批躲在二次元时间不愿出来的少年,又何止在美国。今天中国互联网人群衍生出的语境变化,对传统文化和严肃文学又多少影响我无从预知,不...
评分花了一个中午的时间读完这本书,还是有一定的收获。 首先吸引我的是这本书的封面,还有一个书名。本书一共有6章,第一章主要是大部分的数据构成,调查研究发现现代的年轻人和调查者那一代人的日常活动的差别。第二章叫做恐惧读书,第三章叫做屏幕时间。我想将他们放在一起去论...
评分在马克·鲍尔莱恩笔下的最愚蠢的一代,初听之时似乎骇人听闻。作者在著述中通篇贯穿着一个悖论,即在信息化时代,面对迅捷的信息,丰富的资源,在数字环境中成长的一代为什么不但没有出现预期中的智力增长,反而在读写能力、人文素养、公民意识等方面呈现着倒退的迹象。 ...

评分这位作者查不到信息,只显示美国大学教授。整本书就一个印象:咋呼。 作者潜意识认为,只有在书店、图书馆之类的地方购买、借阅图书,通过阅读书籍才能获得深入的知识。所以,现在年轻人通过数字化渠道、影音传媒获得的知识都是笑话,造就“最愚蠢的一代”。 拍脑袋的思路。很...
