推這本有深度的好書! "Upheaval" 動盪:一個國家的轉機與危機
Jared Diamond 是一位我非常喜歡的人類學家者。他的巨作 “Guns, germs, and Steel" 《槍炮、病菌與鋼鐵》是我這輩子閱讀的前十名,而另一本“Collapse"《大崩壞》 是我2014年的 top 10。這次的書是他 “文明興亡三部曲的第三本。他用人類學家的觀點,解釋了歷史中文明的興衰,看了會讓人對於現今國家的強弱有更深的洞見。這本書也名列Bill Gates 2019 暑期推薦書籍之中。
這本書比較個人與國家,在遇見危機時,如何能成功渡過,並藉此過程中提升至下一個層次。其中他以七個國家經歷危機作為範例,至於 “成功渡過” 的幅度也略有不同。甚至有些成功渡過舊的危機,現在正被新的危機所考驗 (例如 日本)
七個國家包括:芬蘭,日本,德國,智利,印尼,澳洲,美國。
讓我比較意外的是,這本新書的總體評價不若以往的高,仔細看其實是兩極的反應。喜愛他的思路和闡述方式的人還是大有人在,但批評這本書的人很多。讀完之後我可以理解,因為這本書講到美國現在面臨的考驗,而很多在網路上批評的人覺得他在影射當今政府,或是唱衰美國。我讀起來覺得他算是很客觀用分析其他國家的架構來分析美國,並無特別的立場。但現在只要扯到政治,似乎很難不被兩極化地歸類,蠻可惜的。
他分析個人和國家類似的12項指標,能決定是否可以渡過危機甚至轉為力量:
1. Acknowledgement that one is, in fact, in a crisis 承認自己在危機中
(差別是國家的承認必須是共識,畢竟總是有人活在自己封閉的認知中)
2. Accepting one’s responsibility to do something about it
承擔責任,不是一味地受害者心態或是歸咎他人
3. Isolating the problems that need solving
釐清需要解決的問題,不是全盤推翻
(很多時候兩極化的輿論就是說要滅國了,或是個人覺得自己毫無可取之處)
4. Getting material and help from other individuals and groups
從他人或是別國得到援助
5. Using others as role models of how to solve the problems
效法其他人解決類似問題的經驗
6. Ego strength
足夠堅強的自我意識
7. Honestly self-appraising
誠實地檢視自己
(這一點二戰後的德國是表率!分享之前讀過的中文好書 “歐洲的心臟”)
8. Applying experience of previous crises
從自己過往危機處理經驗中尋找可用之處
9. Exercising patience
耐心,知道改變需要時間
10. Exercising flexibility
保持彈性,意識到問題解決的方法不只一種
11. Identifying individual core values
決定自己不能捨棄的核心價值是哪些
12. Freedom from personal constraints
減少個人限制因素
(例如,在危機中可能要減少需要為別人付的責任。國家先天地緣政治條件,如何減輕被影響的程度)
其實,任何的組織變革中,這個思考架構也很適用!
最後作者提到越來越多問題是整體人類的問題(人口,能源,氣候變遷,等等),是否還能套用這個分析架構?看似很多缺乏的條件,但作者也指出過去幾十年人類能夠屏除差異一起合作的經驗 (例如彼此爭戰幾世紀的歐洲國家們現在竟然可以組成歐盟)。但他提到,全球性問題的加劇,以及人類可以攜手合作的能力,兩者像是賽跑中的兩匹馬,還看不出來誰會超越誰。他寫作的原因是因為過去兩本書所收到的許多迴響,他相信再次提醒人們,全體面對問題,攜手解決,是他作為人類學家的責任。

最近這件事鬧的沸沸揚揚 也上了新聞 在留言上發現自己考試的影片有被po上去 增加一些曝光率這樣 哈XD
但對於此事件 我就不公開多表態什麼了 只希望一切能以理性與和平的方式去解決 我們大家都是文明人 都要努力讓這個世界變得更美好
謝謝大家關注這個議題,我剛剛把評審的照片拿掉了,原因是我希望大家不要將這位評審當成壞人,而也我們把焦點專注在這個事件上,而不是人身上,我們才能真正長期的改善這個問題.因為我不會中文,所以我會和我的夥伴們一起再產出一篇更詳盡完整的中文文章,屆時也煩請大家一同關注,讓台灣的藝術環境更好,最好也謝謝幫我翻譯以下文章的朋友,我非常訝異這篇造成的影響力,感謝你們!
I CAUSED A SCENE TODAY IN THE PUBLIC
Today I got very angry and upset for the first time in public in front of a crowd.
What started out as a nice day, I thought it would only get better by attending the street performance artist's exam in Taipei. Everything seemed nice when I saw the performers were all prepared in their provided locations around the Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall. But after I saw the head of the judge panel treated the street performers while performing, I couldn't keep my mouth shut.
Let me explained: each performer had to pay to register for the license exam. They were given 3 minutes to present their work(s) hoping they'd get a lisence so they can earn some sort of living from their passion. This one particular judge (pictured) leading the group seems impatiently listen and watch the street performers. It barely hit the one minute mark, he aggressively cut into the song of a singer and told the performer "many singers sing in different languages like English etc, sing in another language!"(I paraphrased with my bad Chinese translation). Then the singer started singing in Taiwanese language. But barely two sentences, he talked to another judge barely paying attention to the performer this head judge basically just left and gestured to the rest of the group to follow him.
The singer sang barely a minute and a half (they were promised 3 mins and they kept being interrupted by this judge). Bare in mind, this judge is earning a wage while these hopeful performers were paying him to be there. He basically did the same thing over and over again disregarding the artist's intent and hard work. Not a single word of appreciation. He just acted as he was a big boss looking down on these petty performers. He chatted as he wished and walked away without saying a "thank you" or a gesture of acknowledgement. A percussionist kept being interrupted asking him to do something different. Then he just left after the third time. The rest of the judges just followed.
So, i approached him politely asking for his name and his business card. I told him I wanted to talk to him one on one in the future. Degradingly he asked me who I was. I could see in his eyes that he saw a young man who looked like a student to him. But I was not and am not. I am a 40 year old dance artist, filmmaker and educator that have taught around the globe and in many prestigious colleges and festivals.
He didn't want to give me his business card. He seemed annoyed and surprised that someone spoke up. So I said I can give him my contact info but we needed to talk on how the exam went.
The way Taipei city exams the performers today was both disrespectful and insulting to the arts community in general. I didn't want to say this all out. But he left me with no choice.
I told him, for one, the way he treated the performers was disrespectful. As an educator I could not be quiet when I see something like that. Second, the process of the exam is not doing the art community any justice. If he cannot see the artists as a human being first, then what does it say about his view on the Arts. I could see him pissed off. But again he left me with no choice. He was very degrading towards these performers. As an artist myself and an art advocate I had to do something.
The organizer apologized to me said the process needed to go on. I told him I wasn't trying to stop them. I merely want to know how I could get in touch with them to discuss this. If you know me well enough, you should know my temperament. I am a happy go lucky person. I almost never get angry in the public. But it was genuinely insulting and degrading to every artists based on what I saw today.
This arrogant judge didn't care of my opinion. I could see it in his eyes. He was basically the superior in his world and his way was the right way. That's how he had always done it. All the young staffers there were afraid of him. Today he was disrespectful, rude, and arrogant. I really want to know why he does what he does.
After the incident, a few people came up and thanked me for speaking up. They felt the same way but they didn't have the courage to say it to this judge or the organization that issues these licenses. One organizer from the New Taipei City said even she felt bad seeing how the performers being treated.
I don't understand why people don't stand up for each other. The Taipei City has failed their community and even more so to their arts community.
For an organization that is supposed to advocate for the arts, culture and authenticity, they did miserably today. It is like giving an exam to a dog, a cat, a bird and a monkey then telling them that their exam is climbing a tree. It's absolutely ridiculous.
I left them my contact information. They said they will contact me. If they don't, this could be an interesting subject for my next film project. A documentary on how these hopeful, aspiring performers being treated.
I am mad and I am angry. I really hope they will change their shallow way of seeing Arts.
P.S. Share or repost in Chinese. They need to change. Thanks.
