Research On Jin-sui Daily And The Social And Cultural Mobilization In Border Region

Anti-Japanese War Daily started to be published after the end of the Suiyuan-Shanxi Incident on September 18,1940,then was renamed Jin-sui Daily on July 1,1946,and stopped publication on May 1,1949.The paper survived for nine years in total.As the organ newspaper of the CPC Central Committee in western Shanxi(later changed to Jin-sui Branch),it played an important role in the social and cultural mobilization of Jin-sui Base.This thesis focuses on Jin-sui Daily(Anti-Japanese War Daily),and conducts a comprehensive and in-depth study of the cultural mobilization of the Jin-sui Base in five parts.The cultural mobilization referred to the mobilization of the people in the military struggle,political power construction and social economy under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party in the form of literature,art,and news.In addition,this concept also refers to the mobilization for the purpose of cultural constructionfor,that is,mobilize people to participate in cultural construction In order to develop cultural undertakings under the leadership of the CCP.The first part outlines the newspaper running activities in the northwest of Shanxi on the bases of retrospection the tradition of running newspapers by Chinese Communist Party and the early practice of running newspaper of Shanxi province.The Communist Party of China,Sacrifice Union,and Battlefield Mobilization Committee organize these activities around the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War.Newspaper in this period has distinctive color of United Front,which has accumulated experience and reserved talents for the journalism of the Base later.This part also carries a detailed investigation into the development of the editorial team of the Jin-sui Daily(Anti-Japanese War Daily).The personnel of this editing team have a dual role.They joined the team because of mobilization,and mobilized other masses through the newspaper.In the cultural mobilization,they played a leading role in the core.From its initial focus on the reserve cadres in theperiod of opposition between Kuomintang and the Communist Party as well as the intellectuals around the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War,to the substantial supplement of qualified talents in Yan'an in 1942,then to the rise of local intellectuals after the victory of the war,the nine-year development of Jin-Sui Daily(Anti-Japanese War Daily)reflects the process of cultural mobilization in the anti-Japanese base area from one perspective.It is clear that this kind of mobilization is different from the other social mobilization for its progressive characteristics,the reliance on the cultivation of talents and the requirement for continuous cultivation.The second part discusses the establishment and perfection of the journalism team of the Jin-sui Daily(Anti-Japanese War Daily).The comparison of the newspaper report before and after 1942 shows that in the bases with backward culture,the newspapers can reflect the spirit of extensive mass and distinctive character of the party and become a powerful weapon of the party on cultural mobilization of the masses only if the Party's political power of all the levels take the newspaper as an in-depth organization work,and tries all the Party's best efforts and mobilize the masses to participate.Running newspapers by the whole party and masses can be achieved through the perfect communication network.In fact,in the nine-year development of the Jin-sui Daily(Anti-Japanese War Daily),the quality of the newspaper has always been positively correlated with the journalism work.The number of correspondents in the newspaper has gradually grown and the professional level has gradually improved.The formation of the communication network has effectively enhanced the coverage and effectiveness of cultural mobilization.The third part examines the local mimeographed newspaper and blackboard newspaper in the villages at the three-level newspaper network in the Jin-sui Daily(Anti-Japanese War Daily),and the complicated interaction among the Daily and the Winter Study Movement,Literacy Movement and the Newspaper-reading Movement.This paper shows that asthe second and third level of the newspaper system,the key to the success of the mimeographed newspaper and the blackboard newspaper lies in whether the mass line has been forcefully implemented.However,the development of mass movements itself is not only the important part of cultural mobilization,but also a fundamental prerequisite for the newspaper's mobilization of the masses to get the expected response.The fourth part examines the issue of the news "Kelok " in the cultural mobilization of Jin-sui Daily and its causes,analyzes the causal relationship of " Pursue news facts " and "Ideological land reform" in the "Anti-Kelok Movement" in Jin-sui border area.It proposes that the purpose of the tool can only be achieved through the professionalism,so instrumentalism must adhere to the principle of appropriateness to ensure a minimal balance between the authenticity of the news and the correctness of the politics,otherwise it will be counterproductive.The fifth part draws the conclusion that,as Mao Zedong pointed out,cultural construction is "more difficult than overthrowing the Japanese imperialism".Cultural mobilization should fully estimate the chronicity and gradualness of cultural construction,and whether the talents can succeed one generation after another and the mobilization can be enduring are the key factors for success.Wartime educational conditions lead to the difficulties in the supply of specific categories of talents,while the acceptance of the audience leads to the weakness of the demand for specific cultural products on the demand side.The imbalance caused by the supply and demand structure is the reality that must be faced rationally by the decision-makers of cultural mobilization and cultural construction planners.Adapting to local conditions is the best policy,while blindly seeking the whole may get contrary result.Cultural construction is a systematic project,and the successful mass line in cultural mobilization is not a linear structure but a chess-type system.By making masses recognize their own interests and unite for the struggle of the common goal,the "chessboard effect" makes each sport mutually support with all the others,thus a chemical combination forms.Cultural mobilization is essentially an interest mobilization,whose function is to achieve "self-interest" through "altruism",and it can be successful only by recognizing this as a precondition to organize mobilization.On the contrary,if we cannot meet the interests concerned of the people,and are helpless or even detrimental to the realization of the interests of the masses,the results of the mobilization is doomed to fail,and the "self-interest" intention of the mobilizer will eventually come to fall.The party newspaper is an effective tool for political parties to carry out social mobilization,but the realization of the value of tools must be based on the premise of respecting the laws of the news itself,and the pursuit of tools at the expense of the truth of the news will be counterproductive.
