Why did the Chinese party state collapse so quickly after the onset of the Cultural Revolution? The award-winning author of China Under Mao offers a surprising answer that holds a powerful implicit warning for today’s governments.
By May 1966, just seventeen years after its founding, the People’s Republic of China had become one of the most powerfully centralized states in modern history. But that summer everything changed. Mao Zedong called for students to attack intellectuals and officials who allegedly lacked commitment to revolutionary principles. Rebels responded by toppling local governments across the country, ushering in nearly two years of conflict that in places came close to civil war and resulted in nearly 1.6 million dead.
How and why did the party state collapse so rapidly? Standard accounts depict a revolution instigated from the top down and escalated from the bottom up. In this pathbreaking reconsideration of the origins and trajectory of the Cultural Revolution, Andrew Walder offers a startling new conclusion: party cadres seized power from their superiors, setting off a chain reaction of violence, intensified by a mishandled army intervention. This inside-out dynamic explains how virulent factions formed, why the conflict escalated, and why the repression that ended the disorder was so much worse than the violence it was meant to contain.
Based on over 2,000 local annals chronicling some 34,000 revolutionary episodes across China, Agents of Disorder offers an original interpretation of familiar but complex events and suggests a broader lesson for our times: forces of order that we count on to stanch violence can instead generate devastating bloodshed.
Andrew G. Walder is Denise O’Leary and Kent Thiry Professor of Sociology at Stanford University. His previous books include Fractured Rebellion, which won the Barrington Moore Book Award, and China Under Mao (both from Harvard). A member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and a Guggenheim fellow, Walder has received grants from the National Science Foundation, the National Academy of Science, and the Ford Foundation.
每页都仔细看过,对读者来说比09年那本“友善”多了,不再拽词跟拧巴表达了。估计是魏的思路比那时顺了一些。正题以前,先指出两个不知道是否是typo的小问题,1、武汉什么时候出了个名曰”百万英雄“的大组织?只听过百万雄师;2、二二八事件是发生在1947年,不是46年。作为历史社会学家,犯这样的错误,不应该。就史料而言,这本书没有贡献,还不如09年那本,尽管那本号称全用新史料,但实际口述资料还是占了大头,拿地方志不如拿当地的党史资料,那里面有更多的信息。在理论上,这本书也没贡献,尽管比09年稍微进了一步,强调了互动,可互动是什么?博弈吗?等待吗?还是没说清楚。另外,把军队当作单一行为体分析,大错特错,军队本来就不是一个单一行为体。我唯一肯定的地方在最后一章,较为有力的反驳了高默波的缪论。

评分整合了作者近年的一些工作,关于factional formation and crystallization after power seizure的部分呼应Fractured Rebellion,强调政治选择不一定源自先前的、固定的利益,也可以在多行动者互动中随机生成。这个思路跟一些做文化的计算社会学对照可以看到一些更广的理论意义。第一章的理论非常精彩,后面很多内容主要是具体史料。
