|日|中野孝次/著邵宇达/译上海三联书店 1997年8月第1版谢天谢地,终于看见一本不是美国人写的主张远离疯狂消费生活方式的书。亚里士多德早在2300年前就说过:“人类的贪婪是不能满足的。”将近2000年之后,托尔斯泰说:“从乞丐到百万富翁的男子当中寻找,1000人中你也不会找到一个对自己的财富感到满足的人。”看来,人的欲望要是到了贪婪的地步,拥有多少财富都不够。而在追逐财富的过程中,出现许多社会问题。中野孝次描述日本社会说:“欲无止境,一个阶段的目标实现之后,更新的目标层出不穷。街上充斥着刺激人购买欲的广告,钢琴、音响、汽车,还有漂亮的住宅,似乎都唾手可得。”日本经济模式的成功,把日本人引上了唯财富、唯物质的道路,忽略精神世界,使许多人自私、冷漠,缺乏正义感和道义激情,过劳死、自杀、沉溺于庸俗娱乐方式,对前途茫然……有道是:身前无路想回头。既然财富的增长和物质极大丰富没有给人带来健康与幸福,是不是该换个活法?像《简朴生活读本》说的,“推翻我们生活中消费文化的统治”?于是,“清贫思想”被提起,写成了书。一经问世,立即在日本引发热潮,在畅销书排行榜上保持两三年之久。
Japanese | Takako Nakano / Shao Shuda / translated Shanghai Joint Publishing January 1997 First Edition Thankfully, finally saw a book that is not written by Americans to stay away from crazy consumer lifestyle book. Aristotle said as early as 2,300 years ago: “Human greed is untenable.” Almost 2,000 years later, Tolstoy said: “Looking for a man from a beggar to a millionaire, You will not find a man in 1000 who is content with his wealth. ”“ It seems that people’s desires are greedy, how much wealth they have not enough. In chasing wealth, many social problems have emerged. Takashi Nakano describes the Japanese society as saying: ”There is an endless stream of renewal after the realization of the goal of one phase, and the streets are filled with ads that stimulate people’s appetites, pianos, stereos, cars, and beautiful homes, all of them “The success of the Japanese economic model has brought the Japanese to the only path of wealth and materialism, the neglect of the spiritual world, the selfishness and indifference of many people, the lack of sense of justice and moral passion, overwork, suicide, addicted to Vulgar entertainment, at a loss of the future ... ... A proper way is: no way back in front. Since the growth of wealth and great material wealth did not bring health and happiness, is not the need to change the law? Like ”simple life reading,“ said, ”overthrow the consumer culture in our life,“ so? ”Poor idea" was filed, written in the book. When it came out, it immediately sparked a boom in Japan and remained on the bestseller list for two or three years.
