◎内容简介

本书是萧邦奇在其博士论文基础上出版的第一部学术专著，研究了从清末新政到北伐战争时期浙江的精英组织和政治变迁。本书采用核心—边缘的框架，依据人口密度、邮政系统层级、金融机构数量等要素，将浙江分成了核心区内部、核心区外部、边缘区内部和边缘区外部四个不同的社会政治生态区，通过丰富的历史细节、数据、图表，分析了不同区域内的精英参政模式、精英与政府关系、政治变迁过程。萧邦奇从浙江经验中发现，20世纪的中国政治史是政治变迁从核心区内部向外部区域、从精英阶层到非精英阶层不断扩展的过程。

本书是“在中国发现历史”学术思潮的代表作品，提示我们应当注意即使在同一省域，内部仍存在着较大的差异，这对于理解中国其他地区的历史以及更大的国家社会关系问题具有重要参考价值。

◎评论

萧邦奇的兴趣不是叙述单个事件，而是描绘政治发展的一般模式。本书的长处在于其空间分析。萧邦奇证明了这一框架的有效性，令人信服地呈现了民国初年浙江政治发展的差异性。

——亚洲研究协会前主席 罗友枝（Evelyn Rawski）

萧邦奇的研究显示了他的雄心壮志。本书为中国历史研究中的一种新思潮设置了高标准。

今日我们所处的时代是一个什么样的时代？ 我们从哪里来，可能往哪里去？ 为什么我们过去信奉不疑的标准与制度会难以为继？ 新的秩序与结构又将如何产生，从哪里涌现？ 中国崛起将如何撼动当前全球秩序和西方话语权？ 本书将中国的发展经验及其影响放置在最宽广的历史坐标与理论视野中作者在梳理过去三百年世界史的演进脉络，深入观察西方国家政治经济体制的构成与运作机制，批判性透视全球政治经济旧秩序的真实本质与宰制机制的基础上，深入浅出地探讨了中国兴起对人类社会发展的历史意涵这个大问题。 作者提出，与中国崛起相关联，当前人类社会正处于一个数百年难遇的“巨变时代”，其最重要的特征是四重历史趋势的反转，即以美国为核心的单极体系式微；“第三波民主”的退潮；资本主义全球化陷入困境；西方中心世界的末落和非西方世界的全面崛起。 作者以敏锐的洞察力和鲜活的事实探析了中国道路、中国体制的特色和优越性，比如以市场为导向的社会主义经济体系，国有经济、集体经济、民营经济、外资经济共存的所有制结构，中共的自我修正与回应社会需求的能力，中共独特的人才选拔、竞争、淘汰机制，农村土地的集体所有等。

China's one-child rule is unassailably one of the most controversial social policies of all time. In the first book of its kind, Susan Greenhalgh draws on twenty years of research into China's population politics to explain how the leaders of a nation of one billion decided to limit all couples to one child. Focusing on the historic period 1978-80, when China was just reentering the global capitalist system after decades of self-imposed isolation, Greenhalgh documents the extraordinary manner in which a handful of leading aerospace engineers hijacked the population policymaking process and formulated a strategy that treated people like missiles. Just One Child situates these science- and policymaking practices in their broader contexts--the scientization and statisticalization of sociopolitical life--and provides the most detailed and incisive account yet of the origins of the one-child policy.

CHINA UNDER HU JINTAO Opportunities, Dangers, and Dilemmas edited by Tun-jen Cheng (College of William and Mary, USA) , Jacques deLisle (University of Pennsylvania, USA) , & Deborah Brown (Seton Hall University, USA) The fourth generation of leaders of the People's Republic of China, while benefiting from the prestige of China's entry into the World Trade Organization and the honor of hosting the 2008 Olympic Games, also needs to contemplate the sobering side-effects of a rapid and internationally-interdependent economy and a troubled and only partly reformed political system. This important book approaches the study of the PRC under Hu Jintao in a two-fold manner: by examining the new political parameters within which the party-state functions and by analyzing the prominent issues — at home and abroad — that are commanding the attention of China's new leaders. The book tackles a comprehensive range of topics, including elites, institutions and state-society relations, politics and the political implications of economic change, domestic politics and foreign relations.
