《金融時報》選書 深入東南亞脈動四十年，剖析該區政經情勢與社會文化的重量級著作 東南亞既是經濟快速成長的盛世，也是踩踏著鮮血前進的民主社會。 東南亞雖然施行民主政治，泰國、馬來西亞、汶萊、柬埔寨和印尼卻仍存在著君王；冒犯君主罪、國內安全法、軍人干政，這些全是東南亞的政治現實； 新加坡國父李光耀過世後，社會中隱隱流動的不安是什麼？ 為什麼富裕如馬來西亞，卻充滿嚴重的貪汙問題？ 為什麼滿是虔誠佛教徒的泰國和緬甸，卻持續發生暴動與政變？ 柬埔寨在赤柬之後，是否已真正成為民主國家？ 印尼和馬來西亞的宗教衝突如何影響整個東南亞地區，甚至全世界？ 東南亞，我們究竟應該如何看待它？ 作者麥可．瓦提裘提斯因從事媒體和衝突調停工作旅居東南亞四十年，不僅擁有豐富在地經驗，也親身參與了當代東南亞諸多重大事件。他以媒體記者犀利的眼光與文筆，從經濟與文化、殖民與歷史角度分析，講述他對東南亞民主社會、君主政體與獨裁者的觀察，描繪他與東南亞各國重要政治人物、軍方高層與精英分子的往來經驗，以及他和升斗小民、學運領袖、抗爭人士的訪談，反映出東南亞的政治與社會真實面。此外，他也聚焦該區的族群與宗教衝突，特別是近年伊斯蘭激進思想滲透此地所造成的動亂與紛擾。 在本書中，你將穿梭於以下現場：一九八六年菲律賓獨裁者馬可仕下令刺殺反對黨領袖艾奎諾後所引發的人民力量運動、一九九八年五月雅加達街頭爆發的印尼排華運動、二○一○年曼谷紅衫軍反政府示威、二○一七年緬甸若開邦羅興亞族遭軍隊武力鎮壓所引發的難民潮……。此外，作者與泰國南部激進穆斯林叛亂分子面對面、斡旋於菲律賓南部的敵對部族之間，以及安撫印尼政治暴力受害者的實際過程，種種經歷亦逐一釐清區域性衝突的背後原因，內容發人深省。讀完本書，猶如讀完一部豐富多元的東南亞濃縮史，亦得以一窺此區現狀對國際情勢的影響。 【重磅推薦】（依姓氏筆畫序） 台灣一起夢想公益協會秘書長、燦爛時光東南亞主題書店負責人　張正 亞洲週刊特約撰述、前中國時報東南亞特派員　梁東屏 中央研究院歷史語言研究所研究員、國立臺灣大學歷史學系教授　陳國棟 關鍵評論網內容總監、共同創辦人　楊士範 國立政治大學東南亞研究中心執行長、國立政治大學東亞研究所副教授　楊昊 東吳大學政治學系教授　劉必榮 【各界好評】 這本「血」字開頭的書，勾起我「未看先讚」的期待……因為這些近在咫尺的血腥與不公不義，也是對台灣的提醒：我們目前在台灣所擁有的一些小確幸，並不是理所當然的，也不是不會失去的。 ——台灣一起夢想公益協會秘書長、燦爛時光東南亞主題書店負責人　張正 讀一本像是《血路盛世》這樣條理清晰的書，跟自己去做研究比起來，簡直就是「桌頂拈柑」一般，輕而易舉啊！ ——中央研究院歷史語言研究所研究員、臺大歷史學系教授　陳國棟 這本書是一個很重要的觀察出發點：對於那些很想要進攻、搶占、前進的企業家或政治家，或對於想要去那邊工作的年輕人而言，都可以有多一點的歷史社會背景知識和觀察視角，也刺激你從不同角度去思考所謂「東南亞」背後的發展脈絡和現況。 ——關鍵評論網內容總監、共同創辦人　楊士範 作者結合敘事與評論的筆法，平順地銜接歷史片段與個人經驗，除了刻畫他對於東南亞社會觀察的深入了解，也同時呈現了理解東南亞的宏觀視角與微觀體驗。 ——國立政治大學國際關係研究中心副主任暨東南亞研究中心執行長　楊昊 討論亞洲崛起的書籍通常只聚焦中國與印度。瓦提裘提斯對多個東南亞國家的政治現狀、人民性格與族群衝突做了生動又博學的導引，填補了這樣的缺口。 ——《金融時報》（Financial...
