For two thousand years the disparate groups that now reside in Zomia (a mountainous region the size of Europe that consists of portions of seven Asian countries) have fled the projects of the organized state societies that surround them?slavery, conscription, taxes, corvée labor, epidemics, and warfare. This book, essentially an ?anarchist history,? is the first-ever examination of the huge literature on state-making whose author evaluates why people would deliberately and reactively remain stateless. Among the strategies employed by the people of Zomia to remain stateless are physical dispersion in rugged terrain; agricultural practices that enhance mobility; pliable ethnic identities; devotion to prophetic, millenarian leaders; and maintenance of a largely oral culture that allows them to reinvent their histories and genealogies as they move between and around states.

In accessible language, James Scott, recognized worldwide as an eminent authority in Southeast Asian, peasant, and agrarian studies, tells the story of the peoples of Zomia and their unlikely odyssey in search of self-determination. He redefines our views on Asian politics, history, demographics, and even our fundamental ideas about what constitutes civilization, and challenges us with a radically different approach to history that presents events from the perspective of stateless peoples and redefines state-making as a form of ?internal colonialism.? This new perspective requires a radical reevaluation of the civilizational narratives of the lowland states. Scott?s work on Zomia represents a new way to think of area studies that will be applicable to other runaway, fugitive, and marooned communities, be they Gypsies, Cossacks, tribes fleeing slave raiders, Marsh Arabs, or San-Bushmen.

解构极端现代主义:从前现代国家发展中寻求启发:以人民的名义来反对个人,以程式化、扭曲化、精确静止的理念实现独裁统治。而这些理念背后反映出的统治者试图以极具说服力的现代工具和社会欲望为诱饵,强加于人民权威意识形态的行为,其实在无政府主义的抗争中就已经被解构了...

中国有句老话,“穷山恶水出刁民”,仔细想,可见其居心之险恶,这句话无外是站在所谓的“文明中心”看那些僻壤之境人群的生存方式,并在掌握了话语权的情况下随手贴上标签,维护自身秩序井然的形象。 但Scott 这本The Art of Not Being Governed 说的很清楚,首先,山地居民的...

处在伊河上的陆浑水库,位于洛阳嵩县,是上世纪六十年代修建的。在夏商时期,生活在这里的是一批被称为西戎的人,而“戎”是古代对少数民族的称呼。不敢想象位于中原地区洛阳的下属县曾是汉人文化边缘地带。那时中华文明的版图很小,夏商的历史简直可以称为河南的历史。史书说...

跟印地安人一样,这块土地上几千年来生活着一群善良而又落后的土著居民,他们在那过着男耕女织、世外桃源般的这种生活。直到几百年前,咣!停了几艘大船,跳下来面目狰狞的坏蛋,叫做汉人。一上岸,见着土著落后,上去男的杀、女的抢,土地什么房子烧光,所有的坏事做绝了,杀...

最大的问题是所有的resistence都可以另外解释为Scott异化的'tribal people'对所置身环境的自然回应,只不过这类似心理层面的解释也无法去正面推翻……如果不是为了论文,真不想去看这么fancy的东西……

在推荐单里很久才看。作者在自己的序中坦白自己经常一派胡言。当然我之前写了西方论述要求逻辑清晰表达一个观点,基本事实对错次要,按这个标准这是一本新颖好书。用书中观点,地形决定无政府状态,高地交通限制政府通知,人民选择逃离政府,套用到我国现在的带路工程上的话,难怪西方辩论不断重提意识形态斗争,我觉得老掉牙又不是冷战,然而从他们的观点,我们修通了去世界各国的路就把我们的制度和影响带过去了嘛。又想到国内其实仍然有很多不理会现代国家政治的部族比如比较出名的泸沽湖,这些地方能挺多久?
