This is the second volume of a two-volume social history of nineteenth-century Hankow, a city of over one million inhabitants and the commercial hub of central China. In the first volume, Hankow: Commerce and Society in a Chinese City, 1796-1889 (1984), the author emphasized the dynamism of late imperial commerce, the relation of the metropolis to its hinterland, and the corporate institutions of the city, notably its guilds, which assumed a number of functions we normally attribute to a municipal government. In this volume, the focus is on the people of Hankow, in all their ethnic diversity, occupational variety, and constant mobility, and on the social bonds that enabled this mass of people to live and work in a crowded city with much less disruptive social conflict than occurred in Hankow's counterparts in early modern Europe.
Built into the argument of the book is a running comparison nineteenth-century Hankow with such cities as London and Paris in the somewhat earlier period when they, too, were experiencing the growing pains of nascent preindustrial capitalism. How are we to account for the fact that the cities of early modern Europe were so much more prone to protest and social upheaval than Hankow was in a comparable stage of development? The author finds the answer in the cultural hegemony of an activist elite that fostered moral consensus, social harmony, and an aura of solicitude for the well-being of residents at every social level, exemplified in such service institutions as poor relief, firefighting, and public security.
Toward the end of the nineteenth century, however, the social bonds that had held Hankow together were beginning to fragment, as social polarization and growing class-consciousness fostered an atmosphere of increasing unrest.

作者在書裏的每一章都有意識地把漢口的經曆和現代早期西歐城市的經曆作比較,並且強調漢口和西歐城市的不同和相同處,可見直到80年代末,整個城市史領域不管是理論框架還是實例的研究,研究非西方地區的學者依然免不瞭以西方曆史經驗為參照物。羅威廉也許影響最大的就是對public sphere的討論瞭。此書裏對public sphere概念的定義和材料的論證,應該可以算是跳齣瞭哈貝馬斯的框架,在如今依然有參考性。 算是中國近現代史必讀吧。
評分也許對這學期的競賽有好處。不想對曆史沒有瞭解去,觸碰漢正街這篇土地。
評分中譯本的《漢口》原隻齣瞭上捲。二捲也很精彩:諸如,地契、地權糾紛、城市空間格局的曆史演化、地方自治的團體、廟會、幫派的研究,都在這本書裏。研究漢口的重要參考文獻。尤其對城市規劃的學生。這本書現在已經有中譯本瞭。

評分可能有人不同意他的結論,但是這個研究還是相當紮實的。讀完真是覺得可惜,何必非扯進哈貝馬斯呢,你們的點明明不一樣啊。
作者罗威廉在社会学者施坚雅(G. W. Skiner)用“中心地方”理论以研究中国城市的观点的基礎上,用漢口行會組織的先鋒作用為实例,驳斥了马克斯·韦伯等人对于中国城市并不曾有過類似歐洲中世紀城市“都市團體”的政治制度和社會結構的觀點。 作者考察了1796-1889年間武...
評分作者通过对汉口19世纪经济社会史的考察,借助施坚雅中心地理论分析框架,形成了很多关于传统帝国城市发展的判断和看法,包括1)国家与商业的关系,不是专制主义勾结的关系。2)19世纪后期,中国传统银行业至少已部分成功的形成了统一的、反应敏捷的全国性金融市场。3)集中的地...

評分这本书像是一篇散文,只有读到其结论部分,才知道作者为什么要研究其所涉及的的各个方面:即汉口的commence, personal identity, social structure and social organization。 主要观点:“Nineteenth-century Chinese society was not stagnant, listlessly awaiting the sho...
