仪式中的政治:上海知青“支疆”动员的会议仪式考察(1962—1966)

Ritual Politics:The"Aiding Xinjiang"Mobilization Meeting of Shanghai Youths

政治仪式是政治生活的重要组成。成功的政治仪式,能激发民众的政治认同,并促使其采取主动的支持和拥护行动。在上海知青“支疆”动员中,中国共产党以动员会议为载体,通过会议的人员筛选与预动员、会议的程序建构与秩序维护、会议的氛围建构与话语传播等一系列仪式化操演,使动员会议成为传递政治讯息、激发民众情感、生产政治认同的政治仪式。通过会议动员,解除了知青与家长的思想顾虑,推动了知青对“到农村去,到边疆去”的思想认同,实现了动员上海知青支援新疆建设的政治目标。

Political ritual is an important part of political life.A successful political ritual can stimulate people's political identity and prompt them to take active actions of support and advocacy.In the"Aiding Xinjiang"mobilization of Shanghai’s educated youth,the CPC established a political ceremony to transmit political messages,arouse people's emotion and produce political identity by taking the mobilization meeting as the carrier in terms of a series of ritualized exercises such as selection and pre-mobilization,setting up conference procedures and maintaining of conference order,developing ritual atmosphere and carrying on political communication of the conference discourse.Through the mobilization,the concerns of the educated youths and their parents were removed and their identity of"to go to the countryside and go to the frontiers"was promoted so that the political goal of mobilizing Shanghai educated youths to support Xinjiang's development was reached.
