内容简介:
Prasenjit Duara offers the first systematic account of the relationship between the nation-state, nationalism, and the concept of linear history. Focusing primarily on China and including discussion of India, Duara argues that many historians of postcolonial nation-states have adopted a linear, evolutionary history of the Enlightenment/colonial model. As a result, they have written repressive, exclusionary, and incomplete accounts.
The backlash against such histories has resulted in a tendency to view the past as largely constructed, imagined, or invented. In this book, Duara offers a way out of the impasse between constructionism and the evolving nation; he redefines history as a series of multiple, often conflicting narratives produced simultaneously at national, local, and transnational levels. In a series of closely linked case studies, he considers such examples as the very different histories produced by Chinese nationalist reformers and partisans of popular religions, the conflicting narratives of statist nationalists and of advocates of federalism in early twentieth-century China. He demonstrates the necessity of incorporating contestation, appropriation, repression, and the return of the repressed subject into any account of the past that will be meaningful to the present. Duara demonstrates how to write histories that resist being pressed into the service of the national subject in its progress—or stalled progress—toward modernity.

原文摘录:
到1928年后期和1929年,(反宗教)运动遇到了有组织的抵抗,不仅有佛教和尚组织的反抗,而且还有各会道门徒及秘密会党所组织的民众起义。激进民族主义者尤其面临着江苏北部(江北)、河南、安徽及山东数省交界地区贫穷而难以控驭的大小刀会所领导的一系列起义。在一篇非常清楚地叙述小刀会1929年起义的论文中,三谷追寻了起义发生的过程:本来只是抵抗反民间宗教运动,后来却发展成为武装起义并一度计划夺取南京政府。1929年2月3日,就在农历新年这一中国最为重要的节日前后,数千名武装起来的小刀会成员高喊着“打倒三民主义”、“打倒西堂”、“拥护帝国主义”、“日本人是朋友”之类的口号,冲向江北的宿迁,破坏了不久前在拆掉的东岳庙的废墟上新建起来的公共讲堂。他们还向国民党党部大楼、电报局、新式学校(包括女子学校)等发起了进攻(Mitani,1979:141)。2月15日,他们再次对上述机关发动攻击,所不同的是,这次还有五六万运河附近农村的民众赶来参加。到3月底,小刀会与24个县的红枪会会合,招募被军阀的军队遣散的士兵,组建了“大同军”,并布“大同元年”年号。在1929年4月11日最终被国民党军队击败之前,他们还曾攻占了多座城市。 (查看原文)

As the subject of History, it must daily reproduce the project of recovering its national essence –to secure its transparency as the already-always of the nation space. At the same time, the Enlightenment discourse of modern civilization has made it imperative for all societies to affiliate themselves with modernity. Committing oneself to modernity and progress, however, is a commitment to the celebration of the new, the breaking of old shackles. Thus while on the one hand, nation-states glorify the ancient or eternal character of the nation, they also seek to emphasize the unprecedented nature of the nation-state, becuase it is only in this form that the people-nation has been able to realize itself as self-conscious subject of History.
