图书描述

“I have seen yesterday. I know tomorrow.” This inscription in Tutankhamun’s tomb summarizes The Fifth Beginning. Here, archaeologist Robert L. Kelly explains how the study of our cultural past can predict the future of humanity.

In an eminently readable style, Kelly identifies four key pivot points in the six-million-year history of human development: the emergence of technology, culture, agriculture, and the state. In each example, the author examines the long-term processes that resulted in a definitive, no-turning-back change for the organization of society. Kelly then looks ahead, giving us evidence for what he calls a fifth beginning, one that started about AD 1500. Some might call it “globalization,” but the author places it in its larger context: a five-thousand-year arms race, capitalism’s global reach, and the cultural effects of a worldwide communication network.

Kelly predicts that the emergent phenomena of this fifth beginning will include the end of war as a viable way to resolve disputes, the end of capitalism as we know it, the widespread shift toward world citizenship, and the rise of forms of cooperation that will end the near-sacred status of nation-states. It’s the end of life as we have known it. However, the author is cautiously optimistic: he dwells not on the coming chaos, but on humanity’s great potential.

有趣的是所有Homo Sapien一开始都是血腥荒蛮弱肉强食的Hunter-gatherer 然而作者强调human nature却并不是这样暴力混乱的 anyway 总结这本书就是“climate change”leads to everything (agriculture>technology, population growth>culture and state)

评分☆☆☆☆☆

轻松流畅，不故作深沉，讨论问题时有些大而化之的片儿汤感

评分☆☆☆☆☆

学术扎实，可读性极强，写作风格有别于一般的考古学术著作。看一位考古学家谈未来很有意思，有所启发。二刷打卡！
