“...when the natives see you, the tourist, they envy you. They envy your own ability to leave your own banality and boredom. They envy your ability to turn their own banality and boredom into a source of pleasure for yourself.”

现实又残酷 旅客的狂欢和当地人的食不果腹的生活形成了鲜明的对比

上课看的，后殖民对非西方世界最残暴的地方在于给他们责任和债务，但是几百年来缺乏经济和社会基础设施的国家怎么可能在短期能有国际竞争力，每年的增长值还利息都不够，债务只是越叠越沉重，并且在这样的环境下政府一定是失信者。老师说的一句话“we (the West) will make you human"，被西方直接暴力丢入他们已经运行了几千年的价值经济文化政治体系，怎么可能在他们的机制下胜利。而二元化的逻辑下：不在西方的价值体系之中则是非人类的无价值的兽性的，而在他们的体系之中他者如何在不是土壤下生长出来的认识论中生活？

好吧，现在感觉印度人的英语其实也没有那么差。

没有任何血腥暴力的镜头，但是仍然看得艰难而沉重..部分叙述是由Jamaica Kincaid本人用A Small Place里面的片段改编的..bilibili上就有，只是没有字幕...

影片聚焦的 是全球化WTO对牙买加本土经济的冲击与影响，配乐都是叶子味儿的雷鬼

A very touching documentary depicting the impacts of globalisation and the influences exercised by the IFIs on Jamaica. The problems that Jamaica is confronted with are widespread in developing countries, and maybe only they themselves could find the right solutions.

发展的另一面，旅游的另一面，我们，有办法改善吗？

看完想打死克林顿。。。那些农民们盯着电视机，克林顿笑着夺走了他们的生活

今天两节专业课真是有异曲同工的效果， 更加坚定了我要拍情色纪录片的想法。至于这种，我表示自己都看不下去

所有人都黑Washington Consensus

"All the food you are eating was shipped from Miami." A lot to think about. Watched in Wall Street class.
