In the The Confucian-Legalist State, Dingxin Zhao offers a radically new analysis of Chinese imperial history from the eleventh century BCE to the fall of the Qing dynasty. This study first uncovers the factors that explain how, and why, China developed into a bureaucratic empire under the Qin dynasty in 221 BCE. It then examines the political system that crystallized during the Western Han dynasty, a system that drew on China's philosophical traditions of Confucianism and Legalism. Despite great changes in China's demography, religion, technology, and socioeconomic structures, this Confucian-Legalist political system survived for over two millennia. Yet, it was precisely because of the system's resilience that China, for better or worse, did not develop industrial capitalism as Western Europe did, notwithstanding China's economic prosperity and technological sophistication beginning with the Northern Song dynasty.
In examining the nature of this political system, Zhao offers a new way of viewing Chinese history, one that emphasizes the importance of structural forces and social mechanisms in shaping historical dynamics. As a work of historical sociology, The Confucian-Legalist State aims to show how the patterns of Chinese history were not shaped by any single force, but instead by meaningful activities of social actors which were greatly constrained by, and at the same time reproduced and modified, the constellations of political, economic, military, and ideological forces. This book thus offers a startling new understanding of long-term patterns of Chinese history, one that should trigger debates for years to come among historians, political scientists, and sociologists.
Dingxin Zhao is Professor of Sociology at the University of Chicago and the author of several books, including the award-winning Power of Tiananmen (University of Chicago Press, 2001).
从赵鼎新本人处证实,该书会由浙江大学出版社出中译本。
评分读过中国工业资本主义一章。这学期大家上了赵鼎新教授的课都颇有微词。看来今天社会学的结构功能主义研究方法已经过气,火的还是后现代文化研究那一套。
评分明天赵老师来学堂做讲座,非常期待,二体地下102。7点开始。欢迎豆友来。
评分三星半
评分比较失望。很多部分不是用社会学化的历史学观点,要么就是一锅粥;解决李约瑟问题的解释,跟贾斯汀·林的控制实验说法没区别啊~经常自我矛盾,一边说别人用一套理论来解释盛衰的办法无意义,一边自己要用一套理论来处理长程问题~章节也极不平衡,data少的先秦-汉部分分析了将近300页,之后data多的1800年用不到80页解决,所以还是只能根据证据少的部分做社会学分析,证据多起来以后,就很难处理和解释了(估计也是怕被历史学家捶)~经常根据中学历史水平知识和anecdote来组建论证,最后又开始跟出租司机聊,醉了...前有bring state back in,中有war-driven,后有Gorski的bring religion back in,赵老是要bring ideology back in么?

评分赵鼎新(以下简称“赵”)的《儒法国家:中国历史的新理论》颇具学术雄心,视野宏大,洞察清晰,是一项可观的学术成就。我无法评价其解释中国历史的准确性,只能说该书似乎应当在中国的史学争鸣中占有一席之地。这里,我的评论将侧重于理论方面,尤其将重点关注的是此书理论的...

评分赵鼎新(以下简称“赵”)对中国历史的整体评价视野之广令人叹为观止,而他对历史知识传统及社会学解释传统的细致观察亦发人深省——这些传统既造就了我们今天看待中国的方式,又影响着我们对中国古代史料的运用。赵建立了一套关于中国历史的新理论,将早期帝国历史及其之前所...
