简论当代中国边疆民族地区城市文化建设——以楚雄市为例

An Elementary Study on Urban Cultural Construction of the Frontier Ethnic Areas in Contemporary China——A Case Study of Chuxiong

在城市文化讨论语境中,中国边疆民族地区普通的中小城市,往往被学界和媒体忽略,而这些中小城市无论其数量、分布的地域、生活的人群来说都是构成中国城市群的重要基础,体现中国城市文化的多样性、地域性特征的重要组成部分。云南省楚雄市是边疆民族地区城市中具有悠久历史和民族特色的代表性中小城市,其城市文化景观打造中,一方面是为发展文化旅游为目的而展示彝族文化元素的主题公园和体现中国传统文化元素的主题公园建设,另一方面是以城市市民休闲娱乐为主的公园广场和街道建设。在这些景观建设中,也包含着对社会主义核心价值观的宣传。边疆民族地区的城市文化建设在凸显地域性和民族性的同时,应该兼顾多元性和包容性,强化对中华民族文化共有精神家园的文化认同和国家认同。

In discourse of urban culture of the academic circles and the media,the small and medium-sized cities in the frontier areas inhabited by minority ethnic groups are overlooked. Number,geographical distribution and size of population of these cities,however,form an important part of the family of China’s cities,not to mention the cultural diversity and local novelty they can contribute as a family member.Among these small cities is Chuxiong,characterized by a long history and ethnic specialty. One approach to build its urban scenic attractions is the theme parks with the Yi cultural elements and traditional Chinese cultural elements,the other approach being construction of parks,squares and streets for recreational activities of the local residents. In construction of these parks,promotion of the core values of Chinese socialism is not overlooked. While highlighting the local and ethnic characteristics,such urban cultural construction programs should stay diversified and inclusive,stressing our national identification and the notion that China is the shared spiritual home to all the peoples living in this country.
