The Dark Side of Democracy pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
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.

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...
評分《民主的阴暗面》这一书名极具争议,看上去有几分令人不快的味道——因为很多人认为民主没有阴暗面,就算有也不是种族清洗。读完这厚厚的八百页,不少人的心中可能会涌起一个困惑:作者把土耳其、美国、纳粹德国、苏联、红色高棉、卢旺达等种种看似完全不相干的政体形式都放在...
評分此书的最核心论点可以被概括为:在民族冲突激烈的地区,民主是危险的,因为在这些地区,民主更可能被种族主义 / 民族主义绑架。二十世纪的种族灭绝是现代特征,古代史上从未有过。古代史上当然有很多死亡率高于二十世纪的大屠杀,作者认为蓄意的、以灭绝整个民族人口为目标的大...
