内容简介

Love’s Uncertainty explores the hopes and anxieties of urban, middle-class parents in contemporary China. Combining long-term ethnographic research with textual analyses of popular child-rearing manuals, television dramas, and government documents, Teresa Kuan bears witness to the dilemmas of ordinary Chinese parents, who struggle to reconcile new definitions of good parenting with the reality of limited resources. Situating these parents’ experiences in the historical context of state efforts to “improve population quality,” Love’s Uncertainty reveals how global transformations are expressed in the most intimate of human experiences. Ultimately, the book offers a meditation on the nature of moral agency, examining how people discern, amid the myriad contingencies of life, the boundary between what can and cannot be controlled.

评论 ······

民族志方面充实了不少，也把许多热点通过自己的主题连接起来（但是有些地方看得有些莫名其妙）。

三星半，对这样一个题目而言，这个研究的设计显然并非最佳，实验民族志的写作方式完成度也不足以让论述变得丰满。但作者确实很真诚地在思考这个问题。

我喜欢里面心理人类学剖析的那部分

教育民族志中可谓费尔巴哈般的著作
