这些评论并非出自中国专家之口，而是出自一位关注世界资本主义发展及其内部欠发达地区发展的人士之口。因此，在接下来的评论中，对利皮特有关中国的论点内容的评价将主要留给中国问题专家；而这里我们将集中讨论关于不发达的发展的论证的构建。首先，我们可能会质疑利皮特先生为他的文章选择的标题是否适合他构建的论点。利皮特先生很好地审查了“更加晦涩难懂”的论文（正如他所说的其中一个，尽管这个术语同样适用于其他论文），而且他也很好地以缺乏科学基础为由拒绝了它们。在他们的普遍版本（以及它们在其他案例研究中的应用）中，从“传统”社会开始的罗斯托阶段理论、包括家庭结构和文化在内的帕森斯（伪韦伯）模式变量理论、莱宾斯坦的低水平和舒尔茨的高水平均衡陷阱理论以及努尔斯克-米尔达利的恶性循环早已被证明是历史的，甚至是反历史的，并且在科学上是不可接受的解释任何社会进程和发展的工具（以及非或非
These comments are not by a China specialist but come from someone who has been concerned with world capitalist development and the development of underdevelopment within it. In the comments that follow, therefore, the evaluation of the content of Lippit's argument about China will largely be left to the China specialists; while here we will concentrate on the construction of the argument about the development of underdevelopment. To begin with, we may question whether the title Mr. Lippit chooses for his essay is even appropriate for the argument he constructs. Mr. Lippit does well in examining the theses that are "more obscurantist than explanatory" (as he terms one of them, though the same term applies equally to the others), and he does more than well to reject them on grounds of their lack of scientific foundation. In their universal versions (and also their applications to other case studies) the Rostowian stage theory beginning with "traditional" society, the Parsonian (pseudo-Weberian) theory of pattern variables including family structure and culture, the Leibensteinian low- and Schultzian high-level equilibrium trap theory, and the Nurskian-Myrdalian vicious circles have all long since shown to be a-, indeed anti-, historical and therein akeady scientifically unacceptable as vehicles for the explanation of any social process and development (and non- or under
