论红军长征的早期国际传播

On the Early International Dissemination of the Long March of the Red Army

红军长征的早期国际传播特指国民党封锁时期,即红军长征至全国性抗战时期。这一时期传播的主要作品有《随军西行见闻录》《雪山草地行军记》《从甘肃到山西》《红军长征记》《西行漫记》等。这一时期传播主题总体而言就是谱写英雄的史诗、吹响抗日的号角,反击外界的污名化报道,为年轻的中国共产党和红军在全世界“正名”。这一时期传播的特点大致有四个方面:一是与国际人士合作突破国民党新闻封锁,“中国红星闪耀世界”;二是由亲中共人士帮助传播,或由中共党员秘密组织传播;三是除了陈云向共产国际的报告外,其他著述很少提及遵义会议详情;四是毛泽东和中共中央筹划传播,红军将士真诚表述。回顾红军长征的早期国际传播,对于讲好改革开放以来社会主义现代化建设“新长征”具有深刻的借鉴意义。

The early international dissemination of the Long March of the Red Army took place during the period of Kuomintang blockade,i.e.,the period from the Long March of the Red Army to the outbreak of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.During this period,the main works spreading internationally were Journey with the Army to the West,March across Snow Mountains and Grasslands,From Gansu to Shanxi,The Long March of the Red Army,Red Star over China,etc.In general,the purposes of dissemination in this period were to compose heroic epics,rally public support for the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression,counter the stigmatization reports in the outside world,and rectify the“name”of the young Communist Party of China and the Red Army in the world.Dissemination in this period exhibited four characteristics:first,cooperation with international personnel to break through the Kuomintang news blockade,with China’s red star shining around the world;second,dissemination by people close to the Communist Party of China or by secret organizations of CPC members;third,no mention of details on Zunyi Conference in writings except in Chen Yun’s report;and fourth,dissemination as planned by Mao Zedong and the CPC Central Committee,with truthful stories told by Red Army soldiers.Reviewing the early international dissemination of the Long March of the Red Army is of great significance to the“new Long March”of socialist modernization,which has been going on since the start of reform and opening-up.
