Anti-Opium Campaign in Border Region and Ethnic Minority Communities in 1950s-60s

20世纪五六十年代我国边疆与少数民族地区的禁烟禁毒活动,是新中国建立之初全国范围大规模禁烟禁毒运动的扩大、延伸与继续。经过十多年努力,在民主改革方针的保证下,始终团结少数民族上层人士,坚持谨慎、缓进的原则,充分考虑边疆与少数民族地区烟毒问题的特殊性与复杂性,采取了"正面代替,逐步削弱"政策,集中解决边疆少数民族地区种植的问题,从而实现了在中国大陆基本禁绝鸦片烟毒的巨大胜利;同时,通过在边疆与少数民族地区的禁毒实践,为中国共产党成功治理社会问题积累了一些经验,也在全国人民面前树立了一个新型政党处理历史遗留问题的全新形象。

The anti-opium campaign in the border region and ethnic minority communities in the 1950s to 1960s was an extension of nationwide campaign to ban the growing of poppies and beat addiction to opium which was launched in the early period of the People＇ s Republic of China. This campaign lasted over a decade and achieved remarkable success thanks to democratic reform, support from ethnic leaders and the adoption of a ＂prudent and gradual＂ principle. Local governments gave full consideration of the complexity of the border region and ethnic minority communities and therefore introduced alternative crops to poppies. This policy ensured the victory of this campaign across China mainland. In addition, this campaign provided the Communist Party of China with useful experience of dealing with social and historical problems and created a positive image for a new political party in front its people.
