Vietnam Railway And Yunnan Modern Social And Cultural Research

The dian-yue railroad is a railroad which be constructed in Yunnan by the French colonizers in order to plunder the Yunnan resources and further expand colonizes' influence, it is also the first railroad in the Yunnan history. On the one hand, the dian-yue railroad was the France imperialism aggression's product, its constructing ironed the shame mark for the people of Yunnan. On the other hand, the dian-yue railroad had had significant and the profound influence for Yunnan's politics, the economical, cultural and many social life aspects.From angle obtaining technical philosophy, sociology, cultural anthropology and so on, the author carefully examines this phase of histories, regarding the dian-yue railroad as technology carrier and applying technical and the cultural relations theory in the technology transfer process. This article through the dian-yue railroad construction's around historical data, adopts the illustration the method and proves the dian-yue railroad from two aspects. On the one hand the dian-yue railroad (utensil level technology) as a kind of technical transformation form in the construction of the modern Yunnan province opened to traffic on the Yunnan's social culture (utensil level, system level, idea level) impact. Although these influences are obvious, even some is remarkable, because of restriction and the influence of the modern Yunnan original social basis, and the imbalance form of society, this cultural change displayed two characteristics:imbalance change and not degree of thoroughness change. On the other hand,with the construction and opennin of the dian-yue railroad, the western technology (utensil level, system level, idea level) were moved to Yunnan. Moreover they has the conflict with the local culture. Finally, I learn from the cultural science angle, the reason that modern western technology did not take root in Yunnan.This article highlights is that the author carries on the brand-new analysis from this brand-new angle of technical philosophy to the dian-yue railroad and the modern Yunnan society culture,and from the cultural angle, analyzes the western technology using the Yunnan traditional culture particularity the reason which not takes root in modern Yunnan to germinate:It has similar culture root with the modern China this big whole. But the Yunnan traditional culture also has own individuality characteristic——It both displayed the greatly strengthened closeness, and displayed certain compatibility. They constituted a contradictory complex. With allowed the compatibility to urge the modern Yunnan various aspects to walk to a certain extent in China's front row at that time. But the western technology follows the western powers aggression to enter Yunnan. So Yunnan people has appeared the intense patriotism counter-aggression tendency and has appeared the big discount compatibility to foreign land culture. So which opposes imperialism has repelled to the western modern science and technology and the industry achievement absorption, also denied the western culture abstractly. From this caused the greatly strengthened closeness to hold the principal aspect to a certain extent in this contradictory complex,so that it displayed the very strong repellency, Although the western culture which shoulders to the western technology and the western technology have been in the form approval, In the system, the idea stratification plane has not had the fundamental change. Finally these factors causes the western technology not to be able to take root in modern Yunnan to germinate.
