The Origins of Political Order pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Virtually all human societies were once organized tribally, yet over time most developed new political institutions which included a central state that could keep the peace and uniform laws that applied to all citizens. Some went on to create governments that were accountable to their citizens. We take these institutions for granted, but they are absent or are unable to perform in many of today’s developing countries—with often disastrous consequences for the rest of the world.
In The Origins of Political Order, Francis Fukuyama, author of the bestselling The End of History and the Last Man, provides a sweeping account of how today’s basic political institutions developed. The first of a major two-volume work begins with politics among our primate ancestors and follows the story through the emergence of tribal societies, the growth of the first modern state in China, the beginning of a rule of law in India and the Middle East, and the development of political accountability in Europe up until the eve of the French Revolution.
Drawing on a vast body of knowledge—history, evolutionary biology, archaeology, and economics—Fukuyama has produced a brilliant, provocative work that offers fresh insights on the origins of democratic societies and raises essential questions about the nature of politics.
Francis Fukuyama is the Olivier Nomellini Senior Fellow at Stanford University’s Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies. He has previously taught at the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies of Johns Hopkins University and at the George Mason University School of Public Policy. He was a researcher at the RAND Corporation and served as the deputy director in the State Department’s policy planning staff. He is the author of The End of History and the Last Man, Trust, and America at the Crossroads: Democracy, Power, and the Neoconservative Legacy. He lives with his wife in California.
50人打分9.3(考慮到原版以及頁數情況)相當高,GoodReads上也有1553個人評價平均4.00也不低——但為啥覺得福山就是一副死鴨子嘴硬兼死豬不怕開水燙的架勢呢?雖然我很喜歡
評分福山和“艱深晦澀”是絕緣體。
評分當福山的野心進一步擴張到瞭生物學、考古學、地理/環境學、人口學(馬爾薩斯)等領域後,這個集大成的政治學傢橫跨古今中外,將人類文明裏國傢建構、法製、和民主問責紛紛追溯瞭一個源頭,而三者力量的平衡(我更願意歸類為行政、立法、司法的三權分立)纔能夠使自由民主製得以終結。但是,福山為政治所尋找的生物學理論(kin selection and reciprocal altrusim)在我看來假設太多、根基薄弱、以至籠統地涵蓋瞭對patrimonialism(the political recruitment)的擔心;對於曆史片段過於簡化的概述想必有所偏頗與微辭。當下更嚴重的問題看來是三權之間的不平衡所導緻的政治滯後/衰敗,以中國、美國為例。很期待福山在第二捲討論公民社會(社會力量)對民主化的影響 M.
評分花瞭將近半年讀完。好書,雖然作者還是個西方新保守派(民主高於一切)。但對中國,印度,伊斯蘭甚至丹麥的政治曆史發展剖析的很好,也很讓人長眼界。非常同意他說的每個國傢最後政治的發展都跟他自己之前的曆史和政治傳統有很大關係。解釋瞭為什麼如今中國會是強權而印度則是一盤散沙等等..
評分Big picture by reviewing political development of Russian, Europe, Asia from bond-society to state-society. KEY points: modern state, the rule of law, accountability, the scenarios dabate over Malthus model
在我党的十八大报告里,出现了一个新的提法,叫“坚定中国特色社会主义道路自信、理论自信、制度自信”。读完福山的《政治秩序的起源》,居然也给了我这种感觉,他这本书的目的,似乎就是为了坚定美国特色资本主义道路自信、理论自信、制度自信。 细想一下,出现这种感觉并不...
評分福山的中国历史观 弗朗西斯-福山(Francis Fukuyama)是美国杰出的政治学家,曾被《外交政策》评为全球最具影响力的公共知识分子之一。他二十年前提出的“历史终结论”成为后冷战时期的一大论题,至今人们还为此争论不休。过去几年,这位宣布历史“终结”的学者转头探寻...

評分推荐把这本书和《On China》以及《枪炮,钢铁,细菌》一起读颇有意思。这本《Origins》的作者因为在苏联解体后声称“历史的终结”,也就是说西方的“民主自由”作为最终的社会形态已经胜利,历史已经结束了所有的发展,而在西方名声大嘲。作为美国政府智库的重要成员,他的作品...
