A Year Without "Made in China" pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
Journalist Bongiorni, on a post–Christmas day mired deep in plastic toys and electronics equipment, makes up her mind to live for a year without buying any products made in China, a decision spurred less by notions of idealism or fair trade—though she does note troubling statistics on job loss and trade deficits—than simply "to see if it can be done." In this more personal vein, Bongiorni tells often funny, occasionally humiliating stories centering around her difficulty procuring sneakers, sunglasses, DVD players and toys for two young children and a skeptical husband. With little insight into global economics or China′s manufacturing practices, readers may question the point of singling out China when cheap, sweatshop–produced products from other countries are fair game (though Bongiorni cheerfully admits the flaws in her project, she doesn′t consider fixing them). Still, Bongiorni is a graceful, self–deprecating writer, and her comic adventures in self–imposed inconvenience cast an interesting sideways glance at the personal effects of globalism, even if it doesn′t easily connect to the bigger picture.(July)  (Publishers Weekly, August 6, 2007)
"a wry look at the ingenuity it takes to shun the planet′s fastest–growing economy." (Bloomberg News)
"The West′s dependence on Chinese exports was neatly summed up"  (The Telegraph, Sunday 12th August 2007)
"What the year–long experiment did achieve, was to switch on Bongiorni as a consumer and make her alive to the complexities and shifting power of the international economy. (Financial Times, Saturday 25th August)

想想的确可笑,去巴黎,美国,澳洲甚至日本韩国,买纪念品的时候都小心翼翼地避开“MADE IN CHINA”字样。可偏偏便宜的适合普发给同事啊亲戚啊什么的钥匙扣啊冰箱贴啊,恐怕都是从我国沿海的义乌还是哪里集装箱到欧美各地到沃尔玛货架上到机场旅游纪念品店,若被我们又傻兮兮地...
评分感觉被骗了,第一次看到如此烂的书。看作者简介是记者,真让我心寒,记者就这个水平吗。通篇流水帐,一段简单的话就可以概括整本书了,通篇废话连,做个梦都要写上一两页。作者水平差,对问题的分析很片面,而且作为一个记者她的知识和认识页太少了点……这本书从字数上量是有...
评分有的时候生活着的需要坚持着去做一件事情才发现有意义 就像主人公那样 不买中国制造 从中发现了很多乐趣的同时也发现一些很值得思考的问题。 同时我们也感受到了 中国在某些地方确实很强大!
评分 评分This book has shown that the ordinary consumers living without Chinese products would be exhausting and expensive. As you read, you may find yourself surprised, as I was, how much China produces products sold in America. The author learns a lot during her...
