安娣,給我一份摻摻!透視進擊的小國 新加坡

Rate this book
摻摻:意指什麼都要、什麼都有、不純粹、混合起來

新加坡國土小歸小,卻蘊含無限大的可能性;獨立建國短短50年,但鎔鑄各族移民們帶來的悠長歷史文化;一句「SiNGLISH」便能劃分你我、說華語運動展現李氏政權的務實性格;小印度、小泰國、小緬甸、中國城乃至甘榜馬來,
不只為滿足觀光獵奇想像,也是獅城內在微縮的種族模型

作者身為社會語言學研究者,不打算提供「柯P」式期待的政經成功模式,反而引領同為小島國家、擁有多元民族的我們,穿越語言、種族與領土疆域的界線,珍視複雜性所帶來的層次與韻味

比較類似通俗易懂的社會學,其中提到了不少作者在學居新加坡時研究的相關社會問題。由於作者所學專業之故,對於語言、社會問題以及歷史都有獨到的見解,在有部分學術性的同時遣詞造句也不顯枯燥。我個人認為先做部分事先了解再開書效果更好。
唯一有點可惜的是,由於實際上並非學術作品,作者個人停留的時間也有限,所以許多問題並未深入討論挖掘。不過作為入門引導之作可稱上佳。

After living as a one-year Taiwanese graduate student in Singapore, through this book, the author reflects on and shares his experiences, observations, and thoughts on the local society. As a relatively young, vibrant city-state, Singapore is sometimes described as a massive social experiment controlled and guided by a ruthlessly pragmatic nanny government. Therefore, what makes this book unique are the interesting (and occasionally shocking) historical, cultural, socio-lingustic perspectives that reveal some rarely seen sides of Singapore. Through the author's eyes, we readers are treated to a fascinating glimpse of the many undercurrents and long-standing struggles in a wide variety of social issues related to language usage, cultural identities, ethnic conflicts and co-existence, elitism politics, etc.

文筆輕鬆易讀,一日半就讀得完,輕談淺酌,但不算有很深刻的內容,作為打開了解新加坡真正面貌的敲門磚就差不多了
