为什么值得读
- 从历史渊源解释各地区截然不同的商业与日常文化
- 超越单纯的种族或经济视角，审视深层结构性冲突
- 帮助理解新闻热点背后长期存在的区域价值观分歧
作者描述了美国境内相互抗衡的十一个区域性“国度”（Yankeedom、New Netherland、the Midlands、Tidewater、Greater Appalachia、the Deep South、New France、El Norte、the Left Coast、the Far West 和 First Nation），以及这些深厚的根源如何持续影响当今的美国政治。

……弗吉尼亚州、西弗吉尼亚州），无论是在商业还是日常活动中的文化，都和深南部、西海岸、中大西洋区等地有着天壤之别。看看这本书：http://www.amazon.com/American-Nations-History-Regional-Cult...
…Virginia, western Virginia) and the culture for both business and informal activities is vastly different than that of the Deep South, West Coast, Mid Atlantic, etc. See this book: http://www.amazon.com/American-Nations-History-Regional-Cult...
……汉密尔顿的愿景。在这类事情上，种族充其量只能作为粗略预测经济阶层的指标，甚至连这都算不上很有用。换句话说（IOW），我不觉得这是纯粹的种族问题。更好的参考资料是《美利坚诸国：北美十一大对立区域文化史》（American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America）http://www.amazon.com/American-Nations-History-Regional-Cult...
…Hamilton's vision Race is only useful in this sort of thing as a predictor of rough economic class, and even then it's less than useful. IOW, I don't think it's specifically race. A better resource is "American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America" http://www.amazon.com/American-Nations-History-Regional-Cult...
……忽视这一事实未免太轻率了；经济并不是什么独立客观的力量，而是社会和结构性因素的产物，而这些因素归根结底是主观武断的。我非常推崇科林·伍达德（Colin Woodard）的书《美利坚诸国》（American Nations），该书深入探讨了美国11个不同地区截然不同的社会、经济和文化预设，并在很大程度上解释了由这些冲突引发的各种摩擦……
…would be facile toignore this fact; economics isn't some indepedent objective force, but the product of social and structural factors that are ultimately arbitrary. I'm a big fan of Colin Woodard's book American Nations, which examines the very different social, economic and cultural assumptions of 11 different regions in the USA and goes a long way towards explaining the various frictions that arise from conflicting…
那我想你可能会喜欢科林·伍达德写的《美利坚诸国——北美十一大对立区域文化史》（American Nations - A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America）
Then I think you would probably enjoy Colin Woodard’s “American Nations - A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America”
……读读小说、回忆录、励志书，当然还有经典名著。绝对没有任何一种政治局势能合理到让你抽不出每天刷 Twitter 的那一小时，用来读读比如《美利坚诸国》（American Nations）或者《烹饪基因》（The Cooking Gene），去了解一下如今那些把你血压搞飙升的新闻背后的历史根源。“紧迫”和“重要”有着本质区别。我可以推荐好几本……
…read novels, memoirs, self-help books, and of course the classics. There is no plausible political situation where you can't squeeze an hour a day off your Twitter feed in order to spend it reading, say, American Nations, or The Cooking Gene, and learn some of the historical roots behind the news that's ruining your blood pressure today. There's a real distinction between urgent and important. I can recommend multiple…
……你可以很轻松地把它划分为多个区域，每个区域都有其独特的文化、截然不同的历史以及各异的说话方式，有时候差异大得惊人。科林·伍达德的书《美利坚诸国》（American Nations）对这一点解释得非常好 [0]，不过在某一点上这本书变成了对小布什（GWB）的漫长吐槽，如果你觉得那部分无聊，大可以直接弃书。[0]: https://www.businessinsider.com/the-11-nations-of-the-united...
…you can easily divide it into multiple regions that have their own unique culture, their own distinct histories, and different ways of speaking, sometimes dramatically different. Colin Woodard's book "American Nations" does a good job of explaining this [0], though at some point this book turns into a long rant about GWB and it's safe to put the book down at that point if you don't find that interesting.
