SELLING SOCIAL JUSTICE: WHY THE RICH LOVE ANTIRACISM
Book ID/图书代码： 13850024C00028
English Summary/英文概要： Americans have been sold a version of social justice that fails to deliver.
It’s not simply that big business has cynically co-opted an authentic grassroots uprising, but that an unwitting alliance exists between the main line of the racial justice movement and capitalism. In other words, capitalism has found a way to be antiracist without doing a thing to mitigate inequality, racial or otherwise.
87 companies on the S&P 100 released statements on racial justice; 79 pledged money to racial justice-related causes; 66 pledged to hire more diverse candidates; and 50 pledged to diversify their C-suites and boards. High-end gallerists open showrooms with all black staff and uptown Manhattan private schools have issued seemingly radical anti-racist manifestos. Budgets for DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) have ballooned. For all that commitment and spending, change has been fleeting for those at the bottom.
Using compelling journalistic prose combined with deep political analysis, Selling Social Justice investigates the rise and spread of contemporary racial justice ideology. In this critique from the left, Pan traces the evolution of seemingly radical ideas about race as they are integrated into the logic and policy of corporate America. And it is precisely the extent to which demands are adjusted to suit elite interests that they undermine the possibility of building a coalition capable of advancing distributive justice and greater equality.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 美国民众被灌输的所谓社会正义，最终却未能兑现承诺。
始于2020年的全国性种族清算计划，本应自下而上彻底重塑美国社会。然而五年过去，该计划却主要强化了统治阶级，为富人提供了修复严重不平等经济秩序的机会——而此时，整个体系的稳定性与公众信任度正急剧下滑。
企业通过反种族主义手段巩固政治权力，规避政府监管。雇主们通过适得其反的多元化、公平与包容培训，对员工进行监控和打压。富裕阶层和民主党政客推行不成熟的“种族平等”政策，以牺牲大多数劳动人民为代价，加剧了尖锐的阶级分化。右翼势力则借机煽动针对“觉醒运动”的有毒文化战争，这种行为不过是转移公众对全美各族裔日益加剧的经济困境的注意力。
《兜售社会正义》一书深入剖析当代反种族主义思潮的兴起与蔓延，揭示了富人阶层如何接纳这种特定形式的正义。作者詹妮弗·C·潘在这一极具启发性且研究详实的论述中指出：在二十一世纪资源日益稀缺的经济环境中，反种族主义恰恰是理解与对抗不平等的错误框架。(Sandy)
