蒋介石的耻辱政治

中国的领导力、遗产和国家认同

哈佛大学出版社 2021年

蒋介石曾经是扭转中国解体并引导中国在二战中取得盟军胜利的强大人物，但在1949年中国内战中失败后，他逃到了流放地。随着人们的注意力转向毛泽东的共产主义实验，蒋介石被打入了历史的垃圾堆。

在《蒋介石的耻辱政治》中。在《蒋介石的耻辱政治：中国的领导力、遗产和国家认同》（哈佛大学出版社，2021年）中，Grace Huang利用他的秘书们收集的他的日记、电报和演讲稿，对蒋介石的领导力和遗产进行了重新审视，这是一个非同寻常且未经审查的集合。她为这位二十世纪的领导人描绘了一幅新的、耐人寻味的肖像，他推进了儒家的羞耻政治，以对抗日本对中国的入侵，并敦促其人民团结起来。通过将蒋介石对帝国主义的反应与毛泽东、袁世凯和圣雄甘地的反应进行比较，格雷斯扩大了她的研究结果的影响，以探索西方民族主义和现代性表达的替代方案，并揭示了脆弱国家的领导人如何利用强有力的文化工具来激励他们的国家并促进持久的民族认同。

Chiang Kai-Shek's Politics of Shame

Leadership, Legacy, and National Identity in China

HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS 2021

Once a powerful figure who reversed the disintegration of China and steered the country to Allied victory in World War II, Chiang Kai-shek fled into exile following his 1949 defeat in the Chinese civil war. As attention pivoted to Mao Zedong’s communist experiment, Chiang was relegated to the dustbin of history.

In Chiang Kai-Shek's Politics of Shame: Leadership, Legacy, and National Identity in China (Harvard UP, 2021), Grace Huang reconsiders Chiang’s leadership and legacy by drawing on an extraordinary and uncensored collection of his diaries, telegrams, and speeches stitched together by his secretaries. She paints a new, intriguing portrait of this twentieth-century leader who advanced a Confucian politics of shame to confront Japanese incursion into China and urge unity among his people. In also comparing Chiang’s response to imperialism to those of Mao, Yuan Shikai, and Mahatma Gandhi, Grace widens the implications of her findings to explore alternatives to Western expressions of nationalism and modernity and reveal how leaders of vulnerable states can use potent cultural tools to inspire their country and contribute to an enduring national identity.

Grace Huang is professor of government at St. Lawrence University in Canton, NY. She likes to tackle a range of intellectual questions, including: what are the conditions in leadership that promote collective inspiration versus collective hysteria or violence? How do talented subordinates weigh their ability to modify a leader’s deleterious actions against their moral culpability of participating in those policies? How does a particular democratic ideology and culture shape the choices of working mothers, and how do such mothers make decisions about care, family, and work? Her research interests include political leadership, the political uses of shame in Chinese leadership, and gender, labor, and the family. She can be reached at ghuang@stlawu.edu.
