Historical Dimensions And Contemporary Values Of The Jinggangshan Revolutionary Culture

The cultural atmosphere of Jiangxi was rich in ancient China,and the Neo-Confucianism and academy culture developed to a high level.With great changes of the ideological and cultural environment in modern China,the cultural development of Jiangxi gradually lagged behind that of neighboring provinces.The survival dilemma faced by primitive culture led to the revolutionary remolding.Jinggangshan was located in the intersection of Hunan,Jiangxi and Luling cultures.Its cultural development was relatively backward due to its geographical location,the slow development of small-scale peasant economy and the large rural population,which created conditions for the construction of revolutionary culture.During the revolutionary struggle of Jinggangshan base,which lasted for more than two years,Mao Zedong began to explore the revolutionary road of encircling the cities by the countryside and seizing power by arms.The construction of Jinggangshan revolutionary culture ran through the whole development process of the base and interacted with the military struggle,economic construction,regime construction and party construction of the base area,which had accumulated practical experience for CPC to construct the red revolutionary culture system.The revolutionary culture of Jinggangshan mainly included three forms of expression:red slogans,red ballads and revolutionary education.It is characterized by faith,innovation,militancy and mass and is a typical revolutionary culture created by the people under the leadership of CPC.The scientific connotation of Jinggangshan revolutionary culture is the firm and persistent belief culture,the realistic and innovative culture,the arduous struggle culture,and the workers' and peasants'culture relying on the masses.After the large-scale cultural construction activities,the cultural environment of Jinggangshan base has been changed historically,and the revolutionary culture has been recognized by the masses.The idea and theory of CPC in creating revolutionary culture began to take shape in the Jinggangshan Period.The Jinggangshan revolutionary culture not only changed the spiritual outlook of the army and the people in the base area,but also set a spiritual benchmark for the contemporary Chinese through the historical evolution.The spirit of Jinggangshan,which spans time and space,is the spiritual core of Jinggangshan revolutionary culture.As a red cultural resource,Jinggangshan revolutionary culture provides historical experience for contemporary China to shape revolutionary political culture.Carrying forward the red culture represented by Jinggangshan revolutionary culture in the new era is not only conducive to strengthening the people's identification with the Chinese spirit and socialist core values,but also a political need to consolidate the socialist ideological system and oppose historical nihilism.
