著者よりご恵投いただきました。哲学者の稲垣諭さんによる、科学哲学と人工知能論と、同時代評論の融合といった感じの、いかにも晶文社らしい1冊だと思います。

昨年11月、ゲンロンカフェで行われた東浩紀さんとの対談の概要をライターの谷美里さんにまとめていただいたイベントレポートが公開されています(今のところ無料)。「アジア性」をどう考えるか、中国における「人民」の位置づけ、村上春樹と戦争の記憶、など結構盛りだくさんの内容になっています。
このレポートを見て興味を持った方は(長いですが)対談の模様もぜひどうぞ。

加茂具樹さんとの共著Political Economy of Reform in China (SpringerBriefs in Economics) がSpringerから出版されました。これまで英語で書いてきた論考をまとめた100頁程度の小冊子です。目次並びに内容紹介は以下の通りです。
Chap.1 Introduction: The Future of Chinese Economy Under the U.S.–China Economic Conflict
Chap.2 Ownership Structures and Disparities in the Labor Share of Chinese Industrial Enterprises
Chap.3 Evaluating the Sustainability of Innovation in China from the Perspective of Institutional Economics
Chap.4 Political Capital and Enterprise Performance in China: Empirical Analysis Using Data from the People’s Congress of Yangzhou City and Industrial Enterprise
Chap.5 Land Market Competition Among Local Governments: A Spatial Analysis of Zhejiang Province
This book contains four research papers that clarify the issues behind China's rapid economic growth, using empirical studies. The book makes two distinctive points. First, it elucidates the unique economic development of China from a different perspective than the "state capitalism" theory, based on empirical research on the Chinese economy and politics with the cooperation of leading scholars. Second, the book paints a total picture of China through an interdisciplinary analysis of economics, politics, and history.
Each chapter focuses on the political–economic context of China's rapid economic growth on the following basis. First, the authors analyze whether there is a clear difference in the labor distribution rate between state-owned and non-state-owned enterprises, using data from industrial enterprises. Second, they focus on Shenzhen as an innovation hub and examine sustainable innovation and its institutional context in China. Third, there is empirical clarification of questions by matching the databases of industrial enterprises and information on elected representatives of the Local People's Congress of Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province. Finally, the authors focus on the competition by local governments to attract companies by auctioning land usage rights.
