具體描述
These are dangerous times for democracy. We live in an age of winners and losers, where the odds are stacked in favour of the already fortunate. Stalled social mobility and entrenched inequality give the lie to the promise that "you can make it if you try". And the consequence is a brew of anger and frustration that has fuelled populist protest, with the triumph of Brexit and election of Donald Trump.
Michael J. Sandel argues that to overcome the polarized politics of our time, we must rethink the attitudes toward success and failure that have accompanied globalisation and rising inequality. Sandel highlights the hubris a meritocracy generates among the winners and the harsh judgement it imposes on those left behind. He offers an alternative way of thinking about success - more attentive to the role of luck in human affairs, more conducive to an ethic of humility, and more hospitable to a politics of the common good.

##精彩，抽絲剝繭的批判瞭meritocracy。也分析瞭瞭民主黨這十幾年以來為什麼跑偏瞭方嚮，失去傳統陣營，成瞭精英們的代言人的。是故土的陌生人以來最讓人信服的讓我理解trumpism 的一本。但是政治哲學的分析用聽書的方式吸收不好，很多地方思想一不集中就沒聽進去。還是得用看的。
評分##給我很大衝擊的一本書。之前讀過一些分析民粹主義抬頭的作品，比如福山的”Identity”和Hochschild的《故土的陌生人》，但是感覺這些分析的深度都不夠。桑德爾的分析相比之下透徹很多，尤其在學者普遍左傾的環境下，桑德爾對於左翼的核心觀念做齣瞭相當有說服力的批判。所謂的“進步主義”有不少根本性的誤區：他們誤以為現代社會裏弱勢群體的苦難是物質的匱乏，忘記瞭尊嚴的重要性；他們誤以為教育可以改變命運，結果大學錄取成瞭一場你死我活，最終卻令強者更強的遊戲；他們誤以為專傢治國可以解決社會頑疾，卻忽略瞭溝通在民主生活中的地位……川普終有一天謝幕，但如果精英階層不反思過去40年自己犯下的根本性錯誤，憎恨的惡靈會再次重生。
評分##2.5 Looks like his writing is paid by number of words and his narration number of hours lol. This writing style ugh
評分##花瞭一個月多幾天，終於啃完瞭。我第一次聽說成功的反思是19年上野的東大演講，從此我開始痛苦地反思自己的不知感恩的特權和空洞的優越感，以及如何纔能超越多年空虛的高分生活給我帶來的我是個麻木的機器人之感。在看書的過程中過去兩年中遇到的很多當時沒有答案的問題都有瞭若隱若現的迴答，但我還不能夠清楚的錶述齣來。人與人的相遇而非隔離是個有用的藥方，以及我很高興我終於解脫齣瞭不斷逼迫自己hoop-jumping life而重新體會到求知欲給人的純粹的快樂。（以及，當時買這本書是找工作的時候手賤點進瞭我很討厭的人的領英頁麵，看到她在裏麵把自己吹成極其meritorious的樣子，給當時苦悶的我帶來瞭巨大的心理不平衡。是為瞭讓自己多看書少看社交媒體影響自己心情纔激情下單的，真有趣，倒是碰巧買到瞭良藥。
評分##Strive for "a broad equality of condition that enables those who do not achieve great wealth or prestigious positions to live lives of decency and dignity — developing and exercising their abilities in work that wins social esteem, sharing in a widely diffused culture of learning, and deliberating with their fellow citizens about public affairs."

評分##精英的暴政，一個難得坦率自省的議題。Audible聽瞭作者本人念的版本，平鋪直敘，很多大白話的例子，也很多學究氣的數據，估計需要再聽一遍纔能厘清整體邏輯。
評分##更新：看瞭 Michael Young 1958 年齣版的那本 the rise of meritocracy 後這本書減一星。桑德爾總是不喜歡下結論，或者說他總是得不到最根本的結論，就是我們需要多樣化的標準。｜本來隻是自己有感想覺得meritocracy有問題而打開瞭這本書，沒想到這本書…改變瞭我現在看一切東西的眼光。第一次真的覺得可以理解現在世界上的populist backlash、反精英潮流、反國際貿易的情緒，我感覺可以理解甚至我也有相似的感覺。（雖然還是對Sandel的文風不太喜歡
