文章摘要:扎根于非洲之角的卡特草,是一种本土经济作物,它是20世纪50年代以来埃塞俄比亚农民生计和农业生态变迁的催化剂。卡特草的社会生命如万花筒一般,它是庶民的“饭碗”,是道德卫道士眼中的“精神毒药”,是国库的“摇钱树”,是全球市场中的“绿色黄金”,是欧洲中心主义的“科学显微镜”下的违禁物。本文围绕卡特草的在地种植,商品化和全球相遇中的文化碰撞,讲述一个复数的、多声道的物的社会生命史。

Abstract:Rooted in the Horn of Africa,Khat is a native cash crop that has been a catalyst for changes in local farmers’ livelihoods and agricultural ecology in Ethiopia since the 1950s. The social life of khat is like a kaleidoscope. It serves as an “iron rice bowl” for the grassroots,a “social ill” in the eyes of the moral guardians,a “cash cow” of the national treasury,a “green gold” in the global market and a banned drug under the Eurocentric “scientific seeing”. This article is concerd with the fluid and polyphonic social history of khat,from the local cultivation,the commodification to its global flows.
