In 1939, residents of a rural village near Chengdu watched as Lei Mingyuan, a member of a violent secret society known as the Gowned Brothers, executed his teenage daughter. Six years later, Shen Baoyuan, a sociology student at Yenching University, arrived in the town to conduct fieldwork on the society that once held sway over local matters. She got to know Lei Mingyuan and his family, recording many rare insights about the murder and the Gowned Brothers' inner workings.
Using the filicide as a starting point to examine the history, culture, and organization of the Gowned Brothers, Di Wang offers nuanced insights into the structures of local power in 1940s rural Sichuan. Moreover, he examines the influence of Western sociology and anthropology on the way intellectuals in the Republic of China perceived rural communities. By studying the complex relationship between the Gowned Brothers and the Chinese Communist Party, he offers a unique perspective on China's transition to socialism. In so doing, Wang persuasively connects a family in a rural community, with little overt influence on national destiny, to the movements and ideologies that helped shape contemporary China.
Di Wang is Professor of History at the University of Macau. He is the author of The Teahouse: Small Business, Everyday Culture, and Public Politics in Chengdu, 1900–1950 (Stanford, 2008).
Microhistory的尝试。不过内容实在是写得太过单薄了。致命的是,全书并无一个有效的问题意识在支撑。

评分这是真正意义上硬着头皮啃的第一本英文书,需要强调下。英文本没有中文本好看,而且内容和结构有差异,英文本感觉更偏向于西方的anthropology

因为在重庆生活8年,出于对“袍哥”这一群体和其背后文化的好奇读了这本书,虽然有一部分困惑依然没有解开,但于己的收获也是很明显的。 1、 纠正了我对“码头文化”想当然的理解。 在读本书之前,我一直以为,重庆因为沿江,所以在古代有很多码头(现在依然保留,只有部分对外...
评分“为人不识陈近南,总是英雄也枉然”。第一次看金庸的时候,我就被这个神秘的大人物核他背后的神秘组织吸引了。后来,随着年岁日长,我开始慢慢知道,除了天地会,直到中国近代,中国社会存在着一个庞大的地下社会群体。而袍哥,就是其中的典型代表。 01 起源 袍哥,也即是哥...
评分一本让人失望的书,虽然之前有很多出版社大加推崇,但是注水的肉就是不如新宰的肉香。 应该说沈宝媛调查报告的深度,决定了王笛写作的高度。如果这样都能出书的话,我们都可以把建国前的毕业生论文找出来,堆砌一些资料,然后自己出书。 强烈建议购买此书的读者先读附录3,沈宝...
评分看到王笛老师出的这本书,非常感兴趣,买来拜读,但是读完后的感觉与期望差距还是比较明显的。对中国近现代史的研究,很多人批评道:太过于关注上层而忽略了下层人民,但这本书很好地解释了这样的研究趋向为什么发生,因为对于下层群众生活的记载实在太少。俗话说:巧妇难为无...
