圖書描述

The Pulitzer Prize-winning authors of the acclaimed, best-selling Half the Sky now issue a plea--deeply personal and told through the lives of real Americans--to address the crisis in working-class America, while focusing on solutions to mend a half century of governmental failure.

With stark poignancy and political dispassion, Tightrope draws us deep into an "other America." The authors tell this story, in part, through the lives of some of the children with whom Kristof grew up, in rural Yamhill, Oregon, an area that prospered for much of the twentieth century but has been devastated in the last few decades as blue-collar jobs disappeared. About one-quarter of the children on Kristof's old school bus died in adulthood from drugs, alcohol, suicide, or reckless accidents. And while these particular stories unfolded in one corner of the country, they are representative of many places the authors write about, ranging from the Dakotas and Oklahoma to New York and Virginia. But here too are stories about resurgence, among them: Annette Dove, who has devoted her life to helping the teenagers of Pine Bluff, Arkansas, as they navigate the chaotic reality of growing up poor; Daniel McDowell, of Baltimore, whose tale of opioid addiction and recovery suggests that there are viable ways to solve our nation's drug epidemic. Taken together, these accounts provide a picture of working-class families needlessly but profoundly damaged as a result of decades of policy mistakes. With their superb, nuanced reportage, Kristof and WuDunn have given us a book that is both riveting and impossible to ignore.

著者簡介

Nicholas D. Kristof is a New York Times op-ed columnist and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner. With his wife, Sheryl WuDunn, he has written four best-selling books, including the No. 1 New York Times best-seller "Half the Sky." Kristof and WuDunn were the first married couple to win a Pulitzer for journalism, for their coverage of the Tiananmen Square democracy movement in China and the massacre that followed. Kristof later won a second for his columns from Darfur. Kristof and WuDunn live in the New York area with their three children.

Kristof is active on social media, particularly Facebook (www.facebook.com/kristof) and Twitter (www.twitter.com/nickkristof). He was the first blogger on the New York Times website and the first to make a video for the site; he now has more Twitter followers than any other print journalist.

Sheryl WuDunn is a Chinese American business executive, author, and lecturer who was the first Asian-American to win a Pulitzer Prize.

A senior banker focusing on growth companies in technology, new media and the emerging markets, WuDunn also works with double bottom line firms, alternative energy issues, and women entrepreneurs. She has also been a private wealth adviser with Goldman Sachs and was previously a journalist and business executive for The New York Times. She is now senior managing director at Mid-Market Securities [1] , a boutique investment banking firm in New York serving small and medium companies.

At the Times, WuDunn ran coverage of global energy, global markets, foreign technology and foreign industry. She oversaw international business topics ranging from China's economic growth to technology in Japan, from oil and gas in Russia to alternative energy in Brazil. She was also anchor of The New York Times Page One, a nightly program of the next day's stories in the Times. She also worked in the Times's Strategic Planning Department and in the Circulation Department, where she ran the effort to build the next generation of readers for the newspaper. She was one of the few people at The Times who went back and forth between the news and business sides of the organization.

She earlier was a foreign correspondent in The New York Times Beijing and Tokyo bureaus, and speaks Chinese and Japanese. While in Asia, she also reported from other areas, including North Korea, Australia, Burma and the Philippines. WuDunn, recipient of an honorary doctorate from Middlebury College, will be a senior lecturer at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs in the fall of 2011. She is a commentator on China and global affairs on television and radio shows, including NPR, Colbert Report and Charlie Rose.

針對美國工人階級/底層窮人更深入的探討。瞭解到瞭很多。

評分

殘酷的是,跟努力比起來,運氣決定人生的成分遠比想象中大得多。吸毒,早孕,這些看似隻是個人層麵的錯誤選擇,但是,如果號稱世界第一經濟體美國的貧睏水平與同等發達國傢比高的多,那顯然不該把鍋丟給中下階級來背。把貧窮全部歸責於窮人,其實是身為社會不負責任的錶現。工人階級的聲音一直被忽視,而Trump恰恰利用瞭這種絕望,讓紅脖們誤以為他是能拯救他們於泥沼之中的唯一救命稻草。社會遺留問題導緻美國完全資本操盤,疫情過後大公司壟斷隻會越發嚴重,改變談何容易。

反思社會達爾文主義的弊端,如果總覺得窮是窮人的錯,犧牲的是無數無辜的孩子,最終爆發的社會問題拖住整個國傢前進的腳步。
