In the early twentieth century, the Chinese state made strenuous efforts to broaden and deepen its authority over rural society. This book is an ambitious attempt to offer both a method and a framework for analyzing Chinese social history in the state-making era.The author constructs a prismatic view of village-level society that shows how marketing, kinship, water control, temple patronage, and other structures of human interaction overlapped to form what he calls the cultural nexus of power in local society. The author's concept of the cultural nexus and his tracing of how it was altered enables us for the first time to grapple with change at the village level in all its complexity.The author asserts that the growth of the state transformed and delegitimized the traditional cultural nexus during the Republican era, particularly in the realm of village leadership and finances. Thus, the expansion of state power was ultimately and paradoxically responsible for the revolution in China as it eroded the foundations of village life, leaving nothing in its place.The problems of state-making in China were different from those of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Europe; the Chinese experience heralds the process that would become increasingly common in the emergent states of the developing world under the very different circumstances of the twentieth century.

感觉杜赞奇很多的观点和Koselleck的观念史研究方法是有相似的。
评分一位有灵气的学者写的一本有灵气的书。史料详实,引用克制且不过度引申;逻辑慎密,对复杂的机制梳理得十分到位。Social reality is so insusceptible to scientific, law-like understanding.
评分理论部分做的很好,cultural nexus可以做框架放尽很多东西来研究。老杜的作品要好好来读。
评分难读
评分Postscript: “The Methodological Limbo of Social History” 这一节也不错
《文化、权力与国家》读书笔记 本书是美国学者杜赞奇,以日本南满铁道株式会社编撰的《中国惯行调查报告》为主,辅以南开大学经济研究所在二十世纪三十年代所做的社会调查材料以及中外学者的研究成果,通过细致的个案研究,建构出“权力的文化网络”的理论, 探讨了国家政权与...
评分这是我初次读杜赞奇先生的《文化、权力与国家》一书,他围绕华北农村(主要是河北和山东)的几个农村来还原历史,详细描述了1900-1942年国家政权是如何下沉到农村社会的。这个过程其实是国家与乡村社会两个主体之间的博弈,充斥着张力。国家政权欲控制传统的乡村社会,...
评分权力的文化网络 《文化》相较现在流行的学术书籍而言,篇幅不多,8章,再加前言、结论以及作者对社会史研究方法的理解,由作者博士论文改编而来。8章中依次介绍了作者书中的主要概念——权力的文化网络,以及国家政权建设,作战论述权力的文化网络,国家政权建设的...
评分“从基层上看去,中国社会是乡土性的。”费孝通在《乡土中国》一书中如是说,乡绅是中国社会独特的文化现象。费老对乡土社会的描述是“皇权不下县,县下惟宗族,宗族皆自治,自治靠伦理,伦理造乡绅。”我也看到过有学者认为,与其说传统中国社会是“皇权不下县”的,倒不如说...
评分通过许多学者的论述我们已经了解到,近代以前的中国与其说是官僚体制发达的帝国,不如说是共同文化心理维系的一个“天下”,其中央集权的力量一般只能到达县一级,而往下的基础政治结构则与其上迥然相异;现代国家的全面权力架构也为我们所熟悉。那么在近代中国,原来的“天下...
