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.

評分迈克尔·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...
評分在多民族国家,民主化如何可能?自约翰•密尔以降,许多社会科学家都共同关注过这一问题。众人皆知,在民主化转型过程中,很容易出现下列情况:一、国家控制能力变弱;二、政客诉诸民族感情、利益对社会下层进行政治动员;三、政客攀比(outbidding),竞相向极端思想、政策...
