Abstract

Benjamin Read ’ s Roots of the State is a fascinating account of grassroots administrative organization in East Asia and Southeast Asia, with a focus on the capital cities of Beijing and Taipei. The author asks three research questions: 1) How do individuals perceive administrative grassroots engagement and respond to the kinds of authority and obliga-tions the state channels through it; 2) How are vertical and horizontal networks intermingled and what sociopolitical effects follow from applying community ties to state-mandated purposes; and 3) to what extent can state-fostered grassroots organizations serve as focal points for democratic participation and channels for popular influence (p. 257). The questions are significant in the global analysis of state-society relations and their role in democratization. Read addresses these three research questions in seven substantive chapters.

本杰明·里德(Benjamin Read)的《国家之根》(Roots of the State)对东亚和东南亚的基层行政组织进行了引人入胜的描述,重点关注了首都北京和台北。作者提出了三个研究问题:1)个人如何感知基层行政参与,并对国家通过基层行政参与赋予的各种权力和义务作出反应;2)垂直和水平网络是如何交织在一起的,将社区关系应用于国家规定的目的会产生什么样的社会政治影响;3)国家培育的基层组织在多大程度上可以作为民主参与的焦点和大众影响的渠道(第257页)。这些问题对于国家-社会关系及其在民主化中的作用的全球分析具有重要意义。Read在七个实质性章节中解决了这三个研究问题。
