中苏城市:社会主义世界中的大连,1945-1955

Sino-Soviet City:Dalian between Socialist Worlds,1945-1955

本文探讨了1945年至20世纪50年代中期大连港口城市社会主义建设问题。1949年,大连被中国共产党誉为"新中国的模范大都市",而在1950年以前它是一直被苏联军队占领的日本殖民城市。战后地缘政治使大连及其居民处于实施苏维埃式改革的最前沿,大连不仅成为中华人民共和国的先锋城市,而且与广大的社会主义世界有着密切的联系。本文认为,大连作为中苏地区的战后地缘政治地位导致了对中华人民共和国大部分城市景观不同的态度,行动和政策的交叉传播。它揭示了冷战初期的非殖民化进程如何复杂,从而使这一中国城市更紧密地进入第二世界提供了新的视角。

This article explores the building of urban socialism in the port city of Dalian from 1945 through the mid-1950 s.Hailed by the Chinese Communist Party(CCP)in 1949 as"New China’s model metropolis",this former Japanese colonial city was occupied by the Soviet military until 1950.Postwar geopolitics situated Dalian and its residents at the forefront of implementing Sovietinspired reforms that led to an image of Dalian not only as a vanguard city of the People’s Republic,but one intimately connected with the larger socialist world.The article argues that Dalian’s postwar geopolitical position as a Sino-Soviet space led to a cross-pollination of attitudes,actions,and policies that differed from much of the urban scene throughout the People’s Republic of China.It sheds new light on how the complex decolonization process of the early Cold War brought a Chinese city more closely into the Second World.
