  • 文革60年:中国和世界的回首和环顾
    宋永毅 主编
    六十年后,重新审视文革六十年过去,文化大革命仍未成为一段可以轻易封存的历史。它不仅改变了几代人的命运,也重塑了中国的制度、社会结构、政治语言与集体记忆。本书从制度起源、群众政治、宣传机制、权力关系及历史叙事等角度重新审视文革,追问这场浩劫为何发生、如何运转,又以怎样的方式延续至今。全书汇集十三位学者的研究与思考,既挑战若干被固化的历史定论,也是现新的史料、视角与研究方法。从中央文革小组、造反派和中间派等具体人物与群体,到民族主义、'大外宣传'、个人崇拜和反智群众运动,作者们将中国文革置于更广阔的历史与世界政治背景中,揭示极端政治背后的制度逻辑与人性困境。回望文革,不只是为了确认过去发生了什么,更是为了辨认那些可能重新出现的政治机制:领袖崇拜、极权划分、思想垄断、群众动员,以及对历史记忆的选择性改写。当熟悉的语言与情绪再次进入公共生活,我们是否能够及时...

  • 延安整风研究
    梁中堂 Liang Zhongtang
    延安整风研究本书的写作源于对任平观点的批判与对自身早年世界观的重新清算,却在论证过程中意外与延安整风相遇,并由此触发对这一重大历史事件的系统反思。延安整风不仅完成了中国共产党由城市知识分子读书组织向农民革命党的根本嬗变,也确立了'毛泽东-毛泽东思想-中国共产党'这一新的民族运动结构,使中国社会在长期动荡后走向统一的新中国。促使本书成形的直接契机,却是高华《红太阳是怎样升起的》与伪造的《延安日记》在国内外学界的广泛流通。尽管其虚假性早有揭露,它们仍被视为信史引用,反映出学术生态的偏狭与历史认知的失真。苏共中央对外联络部在中苏意识形态斗争中制造的多部文本,也长期影响着相关研究的叙事框架。本书从更广阔的历史背景出发,对延安整风的史实、叙事与伪史传统进行梳理与辨析,并将原先散见于批判任平的写作中的相关章节独立成册,以期为读者提供更清晰的历史脉络与更可靠的史料...

  • 血酬定律(增订版)
    吴思
    ⼆ ⼗多年前,吴思提出'潜规则'与'⾎酬'两个概念,引发了中⽂思想界持续⾄今的⼴泛讨论。它们不仅成为众多读者理解中国历史的重要⼯具,也进⼊了学术研究、媒体评论与公共讨论,成为当代中⽂思想史上最具⽣命⼒的原创概念之⼀。 什么是'⾎酬'? 吴思将'⾎酬'概括为⼀句话:'拼命所得的报酬'。当资源稀缺、规则失灵,⼈们不得不以暴⼒、冒险乃⾄⽣命为代价获取利益时,便形成了'⾎酬'。透过'⾎酬'这⼀概念,吴思重新解释了中国历史中权⼒、利益与规则之间的关系。 本次修订增加了七篇重要⽂章,以及新版序和后记。作者进⼀步提出'元规则-规则-潜规则'的规则体系模型,将原有的'⾎酬'分析扩展为'⾎酬-法酬-规酬'的分析框架,并在后记中尝试将这⼀理论纳⼊更⼴阔的报酬理论,为这⼀原创概念开辟了新的理论空间。 6 ...
