商品描述
This book began as a year-long ethnography of a school in Taiwan in 1991 then evolved more into a historical sociology of national formation and its cultural mindset. Cultural nationalism is a widely debated but poorly understood process. Contrary to prevailing perceptions, the Cold War may have given way to a more progressive open society, but the politicization of ethnicity hardened a more deeply entrenched cultural frame of mind. Instead of liberating an indigenous reality, Taiwanese consciousness has ironically polarized the political dead ends of reunification and independence. In the final analysis, the ethnography can serve as a paradigmatic case study for critical cultural studies. There are clear ramifications also for a comparative study of the cultural politics of other Chinese speaking or Asian societies and their histories.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書最初是在1991年以一所台灣學校為對象進行了一年的民族志研究,後來演變成了一個關於國家形成及其文化心態的歷史社會學研究。文化民族主義是一個廣泛討論但理解不足的過程。與普遍觀點相反,冷戰可能已經讓位給一個更進步的開放社會,但族群政治化卻使文化心態更加根深蒂固。台灣意識並沒有解放本土實相,反而諷刺地將政治上的統一和獨立推向了死胡同。最終,這份民族志研究可以作為批判性文化研究的典範性案例研究。對於比較研究其他中文或亞洲社會及其歷史的文化政治也有明確的影響。
