Powers that be

作者：  (美)戴维·哈伯斯塔姆(David Halberstam)著;尹向泽等译

出版社：国际文化出版公司,2006

简介：哈伯斯塔姆以浩瀚的历史资料为背景，用了大量的笔墨去描述20世纪美国新闻政治史上一系列重大政治事件的背景、起因、发展、结尾，新闻界、政界、人民对这些事件的反应，以及这些事件所造成的美国总统与人民、总统与新闻界、新闻界与人民乃至老年人与年轻人、黑人与白人、白领阶层与蓝领阶层之间根深蒂固的信任差距。这些事件主要包括50年代的麦卡锡事件；60年代的猪湾事件，柏林墙，氢弹，总统遇刺，越南战争，大城市的种族暴动，大学校园里的暴动，参议员肯尼迪和马丁·路德·金的遇刺，在越南取胜的诺言破产，留长发问题，性问题，公开说脏话骂人问题，吸毒，州立肯特大学事件，美莱事件，接近萧条，以及水门事件等等。在这些事件背后，一些人不相信美国政府，另一些人不相信新闻，而政府和新闻界彼此又都鼓励人们不要相信另一方。作者在书中用了较大的篇幅将胡佛以后的历届总统作了穿插的描写，使我们目睹了一部活脱脱的美国当代新闻政治史。其间，新闻成为了政治的一条主线，新闻在一定程度上改变着政治结构，而政治又在某种程度上影响着新闻的形成；新闻在一定程度上决定着政治人物的取舍，而政界首脑又在某些情况下影响着新闻界人物的沉浮。新闻界巨头和政界首脑之间的关系是客大欺店，店大欺客，有时甚至是互不相让，平分秋色。另一方面，他们又相互依存，密不可分。新闻巨头不涉足政治，报纸就办不下去；而政界首脑离开了新闻也就不成其为政界首脑。新闻成为了政治，产生着权力，本身也就成了政治权力。这部历史蔚为大观，变化多端，令人瞠目，引人入胜。同时，作者在书中所作的分析细致入微，入木三分，放大了的历史细部，有着唤起人们思辨的力量。

The reckoning /

作者：  David Halberstam.

出版社：

简介："In just twenty-five years we have gone from the American century to the American crisis," Felix Rohatyn, the financier and social critic, tells David Hablerstam. "That is an astonishing turnaround - perhaps the shortest parabola in history." The remark sets the theme of this powerful work: the fateful challenge to American industrial supremacy. Five years in the making, the book reveals a society that got too rich for its own good, racing through its postwar prosperity, developing wasteful habits, until in the mid-seventies it fell prey to the unlikeliest of rivals, Japan, a nation only recently scorned for the low quality of its goods. The Reckoning portrays the conflict between the culture of affluence and the culture of adversity. It presents the plight of an America whose very greatness is on the line. Halberstam鈥檚 trademark is to take a transcending event such as this and, by dint of exhaustive research and illuminating mini-biographies, make it come to life. Here he chooses two companies, Ford and Nissan, each the embodiment of its society, and tells their stories side by side, from the founders and owners right down to the men on the assembly line. Not only has he entered the Ford executive suites far more deeply than previous writers; he has penetrated the closed, hostile world of corporate Japan 鈥?an impressive coup 鈥?and exposed fierce confrontations. He has taken the normally anonymous Japanese and given them faces, emotions, egos, and vanities. He sees the strengths of the Japanese; he credits especially for heeding American experts on quality and efficiency who were ignored in their own land. But where other writers have too readily touted Japanese managerial wizardry and harmony in the workplace, Halberstam has seen through the myths: Nissan, far from benevolent, crushed an independent union and , far from venturesome, had to be kicked and shoved into exporting. One of the most surprising narratives in the book is the colorful tale of Nissan鈥檚 reluctant invasion of the United States. Halberstam鈥檚 Americans are demythologized too. Henry Ford II, a swashbuckler to the general public, is seen as a cautious man, obsessed with conserving the family business. Lee Iacocca is viewed this time not just through his own eyes but in a remarkably balanced look 鈥?the most talented automobile man of his generation, the outspoken symbol of the old Detroit with its large, gas-guzzling cars, but nimble enough to become the spokesman for a new, less powerful auto industry. (The man who 鈥渂rought America back鈥?is revealed as a leader in the trend to send American jobs overseas.) Iacocca emerges as smart and funny but also jealous and vengeful, not a man to be crossed, even by the chairman he works for. Just as striking is Halberstam鈥檚 portrait of a little-known figure named J. Edward Lundy, the chief of finance who created a new modern culture of bright young business-school graduates at the once-primitive company. Lundy led his financial people to victory over Ford鈥檚 manufacturing and product men, changing the emphasis from making cars to making profits, letting quality slip and innovation lag at a firm formerly the symbol of American industrial genius. Meanwhile Nissan was rising from the ashes of war with grim determination, embracing any sacrifice to improve its product. At both Nissan and Ford we meet people on every level, witness boardroom battles, watch the factions contend. At the end we see the enterprising Koreans looking purposively over the shoulders of the Japanese, whom they call 鈥渢he lazy Asians.鈥?The Reckoning tackles the No. 1 subject for Americans today 鈥?our prosperity going down the drain, jobs flowing overseas, foreigners seizing our markets and beating us at our own game, the drastic change ahead for our economy 鈥?and makes it not only readable but riveting. There will not soon be a book that tells more about the next America. - Dust jacket.

简介：解密再現！ 「迄今為止記述戰爭的頂級巨作。」－－《明星論壇報》 一部融合了軍事、傳記、歷史、政治和外交的鉅作，氣勢磅礴，恢弘跌宕。 這是一場改寫美中和台灣命運的戰爭。然而，無論美國還是台灣都將之遺忘。 從某種程度上說，韓戰似乎已經成了歷史的棄兒。 ◎聯合推薦 林博文專文力薦 朱立熙專文力薦 王建壯 朱立熙 林博文 哈金 傅月庵 溫恰溢 1950-1953年，最寒冷的冬天，最冷酷的戰爭，最恢弘的筆觸，最溫情的故事。 韓戰已經過去一個甲子，那場奠定了冷戰格局、並改寫台灣命運的戰爭，隨著當事人的凋零，已經退居歷史幕後，成為一個空洞的名詞或媒體津津樂道的野史傳奇。 然而我們並不清楚事情的來龍去脈，更無知於幕後機關重疊。美國人一直以為韓戰源自史達林邪惡的驅動，多年後隨著蘇聯的檔案解密，赫然發現戰爭竟來自金日成的不自量力！當中國屯兵三十萬於鴨綠江畔，桀驁不馴的麥克阿瑟一再認定中共不會出兵，一而再、再而三地誤判局勢並導致中美戰車轟然相撞。而撤退到孤島的蔣介石聽聞韓戰爆發，驚喜若狂，計劃出兵南韓，並反攻大陸，麥克阿瑟和杜魯門又持何種態度？才使得今日台灣地位之確定（或不確定）？凡此種種，本書均精彩真實地呈現！ 然而，這本鉅作不單純是一部戰爭史，它更融合了軍事、傳記、歷史、政治和外交，因此氣勢磅礴、恢弘跌宕。軍事從來不只是軍事本身，本書處理和承載了更為豐厚複雜的議題和意涵。從歷史和地緣政治的角力（南北韓夾在中美俄等大國之間）到意識形態的抗爭（麥克阿瑟自詡為剷除共產主義巨龍的劍客）；從外部的大國博弈（毛澤東和史達林在韓戰上的各自利益；以及美國人一直想知道誰弄丟了中國）到內部的政治較量（杜魯門和麥克阿瑟都把彼此看作異類，水火不容；蔣介石院外援華集團的外交攻防）；從軍事戰略及其各種後果（仁川登陸後，美軍是否穿越三八線北上？中國何時決定渡過鴨綠江？），到戰術的騰挪變化（共軍採夜間側翼攻擊，或待君入甕之法，而美軍則在分散還是集中兵力上扣分），作者不斷轉換角度、多條線索交織並重，剪裁巧妙，穿插自如，把這些資訊、場景、心理整合在巨著裡，夾敘夾議，顯示了他高超的寫作技巧和對錯綜複雜的政經歷史的處理能力。 這本書對人物的刻畫、對戰爭中人性的冷酷和溫暖也著墨甚多，以致於本書堪比文學巨著。作者繪聲繪色地描寫了麥克阿瑟將軍的驕傲狂妄，也借助於不同的美軍士兵的戰爭記憶和追述，以及大量文獻史料，再現了殘酷的戰爭場景。本書敘述豐滿、不斷把讀者引入歷史、現場以及心理的縱深。作者似乎一會兒從空中俯瞰，一會兒身臨槍林彈雨，又鑽入當事人內心，一會兒又在時隔多年後超然訪談當事人，不斷切換、多重角度交織，彰顯出其特有的恣肆汪洋的寫作風格。 和越戰相比，美國人一直對韓戰很少言說。一個甲子過去了，這場戰爭仍停留在美國的政治和文化視野之外，從某種程度來說，韓戰似乎已經成了歷史的棄兒。因此本書是六十年來美國知識界對韓戰最有力的思考，也幾乎是最終的思考。因此本書幾乎是韓戰的經典代表作，難有其他作者可以超越。 台灣顯然是韓戰的受益者，一種說法是韓戰救台灣。自然，也是因為韓戰以及後來的越戰，台灣的政治和社會逐漸朝著和中國大陸不同的方向發展。然而，台灣讀者對這場戰爭的了解相當有限，更缺乏研究和反思。歷史總是以弔詭的方式重現、以另外的形態複製出自身。在當下北韓第三代交班（和金日成在蘇聯扶植下上台如出一轍）、中國經濟崛起、美國重返亞洲等局勢不斷演變的背景下，中日美俄、南北韓、台灣在政治經濟上的紛爭合作、合縱連橫，究竟又有多少和六十年前的韓戰有著內在的邏輯聯繫呢？史可鑑今，本書定會幫助讀者諸君對今天台灣的格局有更深入的思考。

简介："The freer we are … the stronger we are," writes David Halberstam in this probing compilation of original essays which distill the essence of America, an evergreen subject rendered even more timely by recent world events that highlight cultural clashes and prompt us not just to reconsider foreign attitudes and aspirations but to think anew about our own. Each chapter explores fundamental qualities, concepts and accomplishments that shape the American character: the sheer size of our country; the legendary events of our history; the heroes, villains, and icons of our national mythology; our enduring dream of a meritocratic society; and the unmistakable spirit that defines us both to ourselves and the rest of the world. Halberstam's keen observations introduce richly varied contributions by distinguished and eloquent commentators like Russell Baker, Ben Bradlee, James Fallows, Cynthia Gorney, Vartan Gregorian, and Janet Maslin, among others, who consider everything from Manifest Destiny to the McCarthy hearings and from Paul Revere's midnight gallop to John Wayne's classic cowboy riding tall through the American Century. Inspiring, enlightening, and enhanced by more than 300 photographs and illustrations, this wide-ranging collection provides thought-provoking, often surprising insights into how today's America took shape, who we are as a nation now, and where our country is headed.--From the Trade Paperback edition.

简介：Ted Williams, Bobby Doerr, Dom DiMaggio, and Johnny Pesky were all members of the famed 1940's Boston Red Sox. Their legendary careers led the Red Sox to a pennant championship and ensured the men a place in sports history. David Halberstam, the bestselling author of the baseball classic Summer of '49, has followed the members of the 1949 championship Boston Red Sox team for years, especially Williams, Doerr, DiMaggio, and Pesky. In this extremely moving book, Halberstam reveals how these four teammates became friends, and how that friendship thrived for more than 60 years. The book opens with Pesky and DiMaggio travelling to see the ailing Ted Williams in Florida. It's the last time they will see him. The journey is filled with nostalgia and memories, but seeing Ted is a shock. The most physically dominating of the four friends, Ted now weighs only 130 pounds and is hunched over in a wheelchair. Dom, without even thinking about it, starts to sing opera and old songs like 'Me and My Shadow' to his friend. Filled with stories of their glory days with the Boston Red Sox, memories of legendary plays and players, and the reaction of the remaining three to Ted Williams' recent death, The Teammates offers us a rare glimpse into the lives of these celebrated men-and great insight into the nature of loyalty and friendship.
