圖書描述

The fable of the Emperor's New Clothes is a classic example of a conspiracy of silence, a situation where everyone refuses to acknowledge an obvious truth. But the denial of social realities--whether incest, alcoholism, corruption, or even genocide--is no fairy tale. In The Elephant in the Room, Eviatar Zerubavel sheds new light on the social and political underpinnings of silence and denial--the keeping of "open secrets." The author shows that conspiracies of silence exist at every level of society, ranging from small groups to large corporations, from personal friendships to politics. Drawing on examples from newspapers and comedy shows to novels, children's stories, and film, the book travels back and forth across different levels of social life, and from everyday moments to large-scale historical events. At its core, The Elephant in the Room helps us understand why we ignore truths that are known to all of us. Zerubavel shows how such conspiracies evolve, illuminating the social pressures that cause people to deny what is right before their eyes. We see how each conspirator's denial is symbiotically complemented by the others', and we learn that silence is usually more intense when there are more people conspiring--and especially when there are significant power differences among them. He concludes by showing that the longer we ignore "elephants," the larger they loom in our minds, as each avoidance triggers an even greater spiral of denial. Social life in families, organizations, communities and even entire nations is full of situations where the emperor has no clothes. The Elephant in the Room illuminates the dynamics behind these situations, revealing why we ignore obvious and alarming realities.

著者簡介

Zerubavel, a professor of sociology at Rutgers University and author of The Seven-Day Circle and other books maneuvers across politics, popular culture and academic literature to uncover sundry forms of silence and connect these within the greater social universe. He demonstrates that silence is a common subject within music and film, and references abound from Paul Simon to John Lennon, Billy Rose's Dumbo to The Secret Live of Dentists. Shifting his focus to politics, Zerubavel analyzes Bill Clinton's impeachment trial, the Catholic Church's child abuse scandal and Bush's response to Hurricane Katrina. However, while not lacking in captivating anecdotes or titillatingly obscure references, the book fails to offer any previously unknown conclusions about silence. Instead, the reader is left with familiar statements: silence can be deadly; silence in individuals breeds silence in the entire group; people tend to be silent about silence. As is obvious from the 60 pages of references (for 85 pages of text), Zerubavel is well-read and marvelously conversant on the subject. Readers looking for groundbreaking scholarship will be disappointed, though the book excels as a socio-historical account of silence's machinations.

中規中矩啊。不值得我撐到現在看完= =

十多年前一本社會學舊書 放在今天讀來,參考這兩年MeToo運動背景和自己的經曆,更覺得可貴瞭。國人是看不起silence breaker 或whistle blower的,仿佛他們隻會挑刺揭短,罵罵咧咧。這本小書讓我有瞭完全不一樣的想法。

看不下去瞭,感覺一上來就跑題瞭

立意不錯,可惜闡釋得很一般。另外,作者是有多愛not to mention和by the same token這兩個詞組啊,100頁的小書裏起碼雙雙用過20次。

当施拉姆千辛万苦将传播学与社会学、心理学、政治学等其他学科分离出来,并独创传播学学科时,他做了很大的贡献,但从应用方面来讲,当下五花八门的传播现象,需要社会学予以支撑,因为只有那样才显得完整。 伊维塔•泽鲁巴维尔从社会学角度研究了“合谋性沉默”,即通过否认...

我们都听过《皇帝的新衣》这个故事,皇帝大摇大摆的走上街头,向人们炫耀他新制的华服,但实际上他什么也没有穿。大臣和群众对这不存在的衣服赞叹不已,直到一个小男孩说出了真相。听完这个故事,我们都记得赞扬小男孩的勇敢和天真,鄙视皇帝和大臣的愚蠢,但似乎很少讨论为什...

端午节的时候把这本书带回家,大概花了2天的时间读完了。 不知道别人怎么样,反正从小我的耳朵旁边充斥着“说那么有的没的,还不如埋头事干”“平庸是福”,乃至我长大以后,听到很多姑娘倡导的恋爱观是“睁一只眼闭一只眼的人比较快乐”"真相不重要,重要的是自己快乐”之类的...
