A new theory of ethnic cleansing based on the most terrible cases (colonial genocides, Armenia, the Nazi Holocaust, Cambodia, Yugoslavia, Rwanda) and cases of lesser violence (early modern Europe, contemporary India, and Indonesia). Murderous cleansing is modern, 'the dark side of democracy'. It results where the demos (democracy) is confused with the ethnos (the ethnic group). Danger arises where two rival ethno-national movements each claims 'its own' state over the same territory. Conflict escalates where either the weaker side fights because of aid from outside, or the stronger side believes it can deploy sudden, overwhelming force. Escalation is not simply the work of 'evil elites' or 'primitive peoples'. It results from complex interactions between leaders, militants, and 'core constituencies' of ethno-nationalism. Understanding this complex process helps us devise policies to avoid ethnic cleansing in the future.

本书第11章被理所应当地作了部分删节。对于肉食者罔顾学术自由的任何严厉的指谪可以说都是毫不为过的,然而残酷的现实并不靠吾辈在网上敲击键盘就能够被“骂”好的。所以还是想着利用网络做些更实际的工作,所以开始补译第11章的中国一节,并重译导论。但无法在此站直接公开发...
评分迈克尔·曼的《民主的阴暗面:解释种族清洗》如果与R.J. Rummel的《权力杀戮:民主作为非暴力的一种方式》同时阅读,将是非常有意思的阅读体验。同样最初出版于2005年,两本书所传达的意思却截然相反:前者试图论述“民主化加剧族群冲突”,而后者想说的则是“民主缓冲社会的暴...
评分先谈本书立意。 海登·怀特(1928-)在自己集二十世纪史学大成的名著《元史学》中(1973),通过对19世纪历史意识的研究,得出如下结论: A.历史既是正统历史学,同时必定是历史哲学; B.史学的可能模式与思辨历史哲学的可能模式相同; C.这些模式实际上分析起来又是先于...
评分民主有没有阴暗面?肯定有。所以,这本书的作者在某种意义上肯定说出了部分真相。民主操作不当,或者不够成熟的时候,阴暗面就会很大。同样,某种“失败的民主”也可能会扩大这种危害性。 同样,性生活有没有危害性?肯定也有。比如,过度的性生活会导致腰酸膝软,影响身体健...
评分《民主的阴暗面》,迈克尔·曼著,严春松译,中央编译出版社,2015年7月第1版。似乎叫“人性的阴暗面”更合适。作者认为种族清洗是现代才出现的,故将之归结为现代制度下的行为,但似乎所谓北方国家、即“民主”国家才能摆脱这种行为。作为社会学专著,读来过于专业细致,...
