All societies must deal with the possibility of violence, and they do so in different ways. This book integrates the problem of violence into a larger social science and historical framework, showing how economic and political behavior are closely linked. Most societies, which we call natural states, limit violence by political manipulation of the economy to create privileged interests. These privileges limit the use of violence by powerful individuals, but doing so hinders both economic and political development. In contrast, modern societies create open access to economic and political organizations, fostering political and economic competition. The book provides a framework for understanding the two types of social orders, why open access societies are both politically and economically more developed, and how some 25 countries have made the transition between the two types.
This book is wildly seen a very important and innovative work in the field of comparative politics. According to the title of this book, the authors try to develop a general theoretical framework to explain the logic and change of social order of the whole ...
评分读的时候就感到有种奇怪的味道,说不出来。看到http://book.douban.com/review/6341166/后豁然开朗。 总结下来:本书信息量大、有历史学功底,比《国家为什么失败》更精致、更富有建设性。然而仍然过分简化了复杂的历史现实,只有单调而贫瘠的类型学,而缺乏更进一步的谱系学...
评分There is little need to readdress the significance of this book. A minimal introduction will suffice. The book is a bold attempt to consolidate fragments of political theories under one roof. It purposes a framework to understand the operation of political...
评分道格拉斯·诺思的《暴力与社会秩序》将人类社会分为三种社会秩序:一是觅食秩序,即以狩猎者—采集者团体为特征的小型社会群体;二是权利限制秩序或自然国家,在这种社会里,人际关系特别是那种有权有势的人之间的人际关系,构成了社会组织的基础和个人互动的平台。自然国家对...

书中作者自创了大量概念,使开篇第一章的理论部分较为晦涩。全书试图构建的从“有限进入”到“公开进入”的社会秩序转变陷入了对两种秩序的描述,而对真正的秩序转型描述并不清晰。作者的理论基本由英、美、法三个国家的政治发展史提炼出来的,以至于应用到其他国家时难免显得生硬。不过书里强调了组织在社会发展中的作用,是North对先前研究的一个重要补充。
评分毕竟是经济学家,欠缺历史素养
评分坦白说,较失望。诺思试图用自己一贯的分类学思维处理暴力与秩序问题,在经济/产权的制度中心主义和个人化思维(特别是对领导者个人的单一强调)中加入对于国家制度能否支持法律人格化、结构复杂化、创生租值和带动政治参与的组织活动的重视,并认为此种组织即“公民社会”之成员。然颇有些文不对题:说的是国家收编统治集团内精英的暴力资源而成为韦伯式独一暴力组织的过程,但大部分篇幅谈的是个人身份与社会身份的脱钩、法治创生、组织支持和精英互动,暴力收编只是和法治、组织并立为封闭体制向公开体制转型的三条件之一,只给了一个英国海军从海盗商船私人武装转化的过程,不仅与其他两者的关系并未叙述清楚,仿佛法治一立、组织一多、角色一分离,暴力资源便自动转手,也有违全书开头提出以暴力为中心的理论框架,不如改叫组织与社会秩序。
