State , Institution , and Working Class Formation :Western literature and its implications for labor studies in China

汤普森所代表的研究传统颠覆了经济决定论和结构简约论的观点,强调了历史、文化和经历在工人阶级形成中的作用。这一研究传统也启发了一些西方政治学家和政治社会学家去思考一个重要的问题:在工人阶级形成的历史过程中,国家扮演了什么样的角色?本文通过介绍他们的若干主要观点,指出"国家变量"对于解释或叙述工人阶级形成的模式、特点和道路的重要性。在结论部分,本文探讨了国家视角对于研究中国工人阶级形成的意义。

E.P.Thompson' s works on the English working class have undermined economic deterministic views on working class formation and highlighted the role of history, culture , and experiences in this process .Inspired by this research tradition , some political scientists and political sociologists asked another important question about the role that the state played in working class formation.This article emphasizes the critical importance of “state variables” in explaining or narrating the patterns, characters, and paths of working class formation, and in conclusion, reflects the implications of this state approach for understanding formation of working class in contemporary China.
