作者简介

Michael Burawoy has studied industrial workplaces in different parts of the world -- Zambia, Chicago, Hungary and Russia -- through participant observation. In his different projects he has tried to cast light -- from the standpoint of the workplace -- on the nature of postcolonialism, on the organization of consent to capitalism, on the peculiar forms of working class consciousness and work organization in state socialism, and on the dilemmas of transition from socialism to capitalism. During the 1990s he studied post Soviet decline as "economic involution": how the Russian economy was driven by the expansion of a range of intermediary organizations operating in the sphere of exchange (trade, finance, barter, new forms of money), and how the productive economy recentered on households and especially women. No longer able to work in factories, most recently he has turned to the study of his own workplace - the university - to consider the way sociology itself is produced and then disseminated to diverse publics. Over the course of his research and teaching, he has developed theoretically driven methodologies that allow broad conclusions to be drawn from ethnographic research and case studies. These methodologies are represented in Global Ethnography a book coauthored with 9 graduate students, which shows how globalization can be studied "from below" through participation in the lives of those who experience it. Throughout his sociological career he has engaged with Marxism, seeking to reconstruct it in the light of his research and more broadly in the light of historical challenges of the late 20th and early 21st. centuries.

    不太行,扔材料——给结论、历史偶然主义、对布雷弗曼的无端指责、自以为超越马克思的自大、多元决定论的含糊。过誉。09-12

    比《制造甘愿》理论性更强,工厂体制上有了非常细致的typology,加入了国家干预的变量,视角也拓展到了苏东的real socialism。批判Braverman有点过头11-26

    既是政治经济学的经典、也是劳工社会学的经典,在现行境况下得以翻译付梓实属不易。Burawoy使用「生产政治」这一概念将马克思意义上的劳动过程理论和国家理论统合起来,其对劳动过程的主体性关切与Braveman的关切呈现出对话的意味,生产政治与国家政治的互动是自为、有向而能动的,于我而言也有新启发。问题有二,第一是对历史唯物主义的把握是有偏的,正统马克思将经济基础与上层建筑的对立简单地视为主与客的对立吗,这种刻画如果不成立,后面的很多批评也就不成立;第二是以劳动过程揭开国家政治的黑箱,又给出一个关于生产政治的黑箱,作者的经验实例可谓有种类型学意义的、博物馆式的、图式系统主义的周全,可究竟何谓「生产政治」,或许还要另着更多笔墨来说明,这点上看,总结部分做得好,但不够深刻。08-08
