After the founding of new China, the government enacted a series of laws and policies to ensure that female enjoy equal political, economic and cultural rights with male, and made positive efforts in promoting gender equality and promoting female employment, and achieved remarkable results. Since the re-establishment of political, economic, and cultural value system, a new female image, such as heroine, female model workers become a hot topic of the beginning of new China. After the start of the "Great Leap Forward" movement, many industries appear "female instead of male" phenomenon because of labor shortages, the objective of environmental requirements that female must be engaged before only male can do. In this way, the political guidance of public opinion, the needs of the objective environment, create the conditions of "Mu Guiying","Hua Mulan" female image.With the convening of the10th Plenary Session of the Eighth of CPC, the sense of "class struggle" is gradually being strengthened, after the start of the Great Cultural Revolution,"class struggle as the key link" become the guide of all actions, under the wave of politics coerced above all else, under the slogan of the call of "Times have changed, men and women are the same", the female image gradually begin to appear politicization of steering,and appear the study of this article's "the loyal to three, four infinite" of loyal female image;"dare say, dare to do" of female Red Guards image;"fearing neither hardship nor death" of "Iron Girl" image; always "root" countryside's female image of young intellectuals;"do not love attire but love arms"of female warrior image.Through the study of the political female image of the Great Cultural Revolution, the politicization of female image in this period appear the model of characteristics, stage characteristics and transient characteristics.The politicization of female image in the Great Cultural Revolution is not by accident, trace to its source, both the impact of understanding of women's emancipation by the Chinese Communist and the promoting of education power; both the All-China Women's Federation and local Women's Federation to organize and mobilize women, and the awareness of "man is superior to woman" is criticized by the movement of "Criticizing Lin Biao and Confucius"; both the guidance of the literary and artistic works; and the propaganda of the public opinion. In short, the reason about the politicization of female image in the Great Cultural Revolution, both its historical roots and the intervention of national power, both the affect of public opinion and the promoting of the objective environment, it is the result of various forces.This dissertation attempt to reveal the society cultural connotation of the politicization female image in the Great Cultural Revolution, start from the personal worship and family origin, in order to reveal the objective reality about even a new social system is established, but the people's thoughts can not change as the social system to change. The presence of national political ritual and national symbol make civil society show the revolutionary theater scene of the Great Cultural Revolution, the state and society are highly integrated, centralized leadership of political institutions and a highly centralized planned economy economic system forces have been strengthened, women's thoughts and actions by the norms of political ritual, so that the female image gradually began to appear politicization of steering. This period, the female image is squeezed by the state power and the patriarchal awareness at a certain degree, female gender awareness to flee, or even appear a tendency to "masculine", the female image lost the possibility of self-development, and show the context of autonomy, diversity to the development of passive, unity.The role identity of the politicization of female image in the Great Cultural Revolution, the female and male of different marital status in different historical periods, their evaluations are not the same. When the conflict between the personal interests and the interests of the revolution, the female's attitude in the "five red and five black categories" is utterly different. After the end of the Great Cultural Revolution, when the politicization of the female to re-examine themselves, they have too much confusion. So when the conflict occur between the ideal and the reality, the personal interests and the interests of the revolution, more often able to show the multi-dimensional face of the people.
