圖書描述

Oil is a curse, it is often said, that condemns the countries producing it to an existence defined by war, corruption and enormous inequality. Carbon Democracy tells a more complex story, arguing that no nation escapes the political consequences of our collective dependence on oil. It shapes the body politic both in regions such as the Middle East, which rely upon revenues from oil production, and in the places that have the greatest demand for energy.

Timothy Mitchell begins with the history of coal power to tell a radical new story about the rise of democracy. Coal was a source of energy so open to disruption that oligarchies in the West became vulnerable for the first time to mass demands for democracy. In the mid-twentieth century, however, the development of cheap and abundant energy from oil, most notably from the Middle East, offered a means to reduce this vulnerability to democratic pressures. The abundance of oil made it possible for the first time in history to reorganize political life around the management of something now called "the economy" and the promise of its infinite growth. The politics of the West became dependent on an undemocratic Middle East.

In the twenty-first century, the oil-based forms of modern democratic politics have become unsustainable. Foreign intervention and military rule are faltering in the Middle East, while governments everywhere appear incapable of addressing the crises that threaten to end the age of carbon democracy—the disappearance of cheap energy and the carbon-fuelled collapse of the ecological order.

In making the production of energy the central force shaping the democratic age, Carbon Democracy rethinks the history of energy, the politics of nature, the theory of democracy, and the place of the Middle East in our common world.

顛覆瞭我的很多成見，比方美國外交，中東，甚至“經濟”作為一門學科。start to think the movie Matrix is probably more non-fiction than fiction... :-O ／／剛開始看，有意思。。。

十星。與rule of experts一脈相承的對於economy這一概念的解構與曆史化，但隨著時間的推進將這一解構視角延伸到瞭environment身上，揭露環保政治背後石油公司們的如意算盤（核為最清潔能源？核究竟安不安全？反正是有這麼不環保不如我們漲個價吧？）而當一些以賣石油富起來的國傢的石油資源逐漸耗盡，人們看到的這些國傢最終齣現的各種民眾的組織似乎在和當年煤炭工人的反抗相呼應。我們的能源既可能帶來民主也可能抑製民主，所以新的科技帶來的不是確定性的發展繁榮，而是一次又一次的不確定，一次又一次與國際政治的互相妥協，並一次又一次嚮我們揭示，全球化資本主義的無上權威，與曆史債務帶來的戰爭隱憂。

Carbon Democracy: Political Power in the Age of Oil 《碳民主：石油时代的政权》人们常说，石油是一个诅咒，石油产出国总是与战争、腐败和不平等脱不了关系。《碳民主》讲述了一个更加复杂的故事，它认为，没有任何国家能从我们对石油的集体依赖所造成的政治后果中抽身。...
