圖書描述

David Graeber was a professor of anthropology at the London School of Economics. He is the author of Debt: The First 5,000 Years and Bullshit Jobs: A Theory, and was a contributor to Harper's Magazine, The Guardian, and The Baffler. An iconic thinker and renowned activist, his early efforts in Zuccotti Park made Occupy Wall Street an era-defining movement. He died on September 2, 2020.

David Wengrow is a professor of comparative archaeology at the Institute of Archaeology, University College London, and has been a visiting professor at New York University. He is the author of three books, including What Makes Civilization?. Wengrow conducts archaeological fieldwork in various parts of Africa and the Middle East.

A trailblazing account of human history, challenging our most fundamental assumptions about social evolution--from the development of agriculture and cities to the emergence of the state, political violence, and social inequality--and revealing new possibilities for human emancipation.

For generations, our remote ancestors have been cast as primitive and childlike--either free and equal innocents, or thuggish and warlike. Civilization, we are told, could be achieved only by sacrificing those original freedoms or, alternatively, by taming our baser instincts. David Graeber and David Wengrow show how such theories first emerged in the eighteenth century as a conservative reaction to powerful critiques of European society posed by Indigenous observers and intellectuals. Revisiting this encounter has startling implications for how we make sense of human history today, including the origins of farming, property, cities, democracy, slavery, and civilization itself.

Drawing on pathbreaking research in archaeology and anthropology, the authors show how history becomes a far more interesting place once we learn to throw off our conceptual shackles and perceive what's really there. If humans did not spend 95 percent of their evolutionary past in tiny bands of hunter-gatherers, what were they doing all that time? If agriculture, and cities, did not mean a plunge into hierarchy and domination, then what kinds of social and economic organization did they lead to? What was really happening during the periods that we usually describe as the emergence of the state? The answers are often unexpected, and suggest that the course of human history may be less set in stone, and more full of playful, hopeful possibilities, than we tend to assume.

The Dawn of Everything fundamentally transforms our understanding of the human past and offers a path toward imagining new forms of freedom, new ways of organizing society. This is a monumental book of formidable intellectual range, animated by curiosity, moral vision, and a faith in the power of direct action.

##最簡單來說這本書是想挑戰關於文明進程的“公認知識”,也即沿著綫性路徑進行的人類故事。我對曆史學和人類學所知甚少(上過兩門課並不比幾本書帶給我的更多),不知道它們怎麼具體討論這個話題,但就我到目前為止接觸過的而言,這個話題並不很新鮮——對於綫性曆史或文明進程,社會學、曆史哲學都有討論。 所以我想應當不用這種視角來看這本書。Lauren Leve說格雷伯在電話裏是這樣的:“這將會把事情弄得一團糟!人們會瘋掉的,但這都是事實!” 實際上我並不清楚說這本書由“好奇心、道德遠見和對直接行動的力量的信念所激發”閤不閤適,但它真的說瞭很多*可能性*,它在這種情況下足夠閤時宜——這個黃色的殼子這麼說話:“既然過去我們擁有過那麼多可能性,現在為什麼不行?!”
