“比”:乡村水利工程建设民众动员的内在逻辑——基于1952—1953年整修南洞庭湖工程的历史考察

“Comparison”:the underlying logic inherent in mobilizing migrant workers in rural water conservancy construction project——Based on the historical investigation of the the South Dongting lake reconstruction project from 1952 to 1953

利用中国传统文化思维逻辑的基本概念“比”,基于1952—1953年整修南洞庭湖工程民工动员个案,分析乡村水利工程建设民众动员中蕴含的内在逻辑:工程指挥部建构志愿军榜样形象和民工模范形象,作为“比”的参照点,同时侧重建立志愿军“上战场”与民工“修堤垸”行为之间的逻辑关联;基层干部通过对情感、年龄、政治面貌、价值、场景因素的强化,引导民工“比”的行为,使之争做志愿军式英雄和李祖范式模范;民工出于对参照点的认同,将“比”化为自觉行动,提高了思想认识,提升了劳动工效,增强了政治认同。这表明,只有真正符合“比”的逻辑,注重“比”的合理性,实现“比”的升华,才能更好地达到“比”的目的。

Using the basic concept“comparison”in the logic of Chinese traditional cultural thinking and based on a case study of mobilizing migrant workers in the South Dongting Lake Reconstruction Project from 1952 to 1953,this paper analyzes the underlying logic inherent in the mass mobilization of rural water conservancy construction project:the construction of the model images of the volunteer army and migrant workers by the project headquarters,serving as the reference point of“comparison”,and focuses on establishing a logical connection between the behavior of volunteer army's“going to the battlefield”and that of the migrant workers'“repairing dikes and embankments”.Through the reinforcement of emotion,age,political affiliation,values and situational factors,grass-roots cadres encourage the migrant workers in the context of“comparison”to strive to be volunteer military heroes and the role models like Li Zufan.Meanwhile,migrant workers,out of their identification with the reference points,have transformed“comparison”into their conscious actions,enhanced their ideological awareness,improved labor efficiency,and strengthened their political identity.This indicates that only by truly following the logic of“comparison”,emphasizing the rationality of“comparison”,and achieving the sublimation of“comparison”,can the purpose of“comparison”be better achieved.
