作为“事件”的流行语与中国“十字架身份体系”的崩裂--从“万元户”用法的兴衰看改革开放40年的发展

The Catchword Emerged Like an “Event” and Collapse of the Chinese “Cross Identity System”——Development in the 40 Years of Reform and Opening-up as Seen From the Rise and Fall of the Usage of “10000 Yuan Household”

流行语不仅是一种"语汇",更是一种"述说"。改革开放40年来,中国最重要的流行语应该是"万元户",它"述说"了中国一个当代的全新的身份系统构建的开始,宣告了旧有的"敌我城乡""十字架"式的、层级式的身份系统的垮塌。一种新的"真理"以整个社会几乎猝不及防的方式立刻现实地站立在全国所有人的面前。"思想解放运动"从一种理论口号立刻成为一种全社会可以触摸的社会实践,"实践是检验真理的唯一标准"理论的话语转化为人们的日常生活现实。

Catchwords are not only a kind of“vocabulary”,but also a kind of“narration”.In the 40 years of reform and opening-up,China’s most important catchword is“10000 Yuan Household”,it“recounts”the beginning of the construction of a new identity system in China,and declares the collapse of the old“urban vs.rural areas”“Cross-type”and hierarchical identity system.And a new“truth”stands immediately confronted the people of the whole country in a way that the whole society is almost caught off guard.“The ideological liberation movement”immediately becomes the social practice which the entire society may touch from one kind of theory slogan,and the discourse of“practice is the only criterion for testing truth”is transformed into the reality of people’s daily life.
