书籍简介

对重建的开创性、广泛的新叙述从根本上改变了我们对美历史这一形成时期的看法

 

我们被告知,目前的时刻与重建时期非常相似,当时自由人民和联邦政府在内战后试图在南方建立一个跨种族的民主家。 这一努力被推翻,并成为今天对黑人平等理念的暴力反弹的警告。 在《美第二共和的兴衰》一书中,知名历史学家马尼沙·辛哈 (Manisha Sinha) 将我们的视野拓展到了重建时期 (1865-1877) 通常的时空界限之外,解释了美内战、重建时期的推翻、对西方的征服是如何发生的。 北方的劳工冲突、排华、妇女选举权和海外美利坚帝的建立,都是民主势力与反动势力之间斗争的一部分。 辛哈的书强调了黑人在重新定义美国公民身份和治理方面的关键作用,表明重建奠定了我们民主的基础。

 

A ground-breaking, expansive new account of Reconstruction that fundamentally alters our view of this formative period in American history

 

We are told that the present moment bears a strong resemblance to Reconstruction, when freed-people and the federal government attempted to create an interracial democracy in the south after the Civil War. That effort was overthrown and serves as a warning today about violent backlash to the mere idea of black equality. In The Rise and Fall of the Second American Republic, acclaimed historian Manisha Sinha expands our view beyond the usual temporal and spatial bounds of Reconstruction (1865–1877) to explain how the American Civil War, the overthrow of Reconstruction, the conquest of the west, labour conflict in the north, women’s suffrage and the establishment of an overseas American empire were part of the same struggle between the forces of democracy and those of reaction. Highlighting the critical role of black people in redefining American citizenship and governance, Sinha’s book shows that Reconstruction laid the foundation of our democracy.
