On March 22, 1944, at the propaganda work conference held by the Central Propaganda Committee of the Communist Party of China, Mao Zedong discussed the dialectical relationship between politics, military, economy, and culture, pointing out that culture reflects political and economic struggles, but it can also guide political and economic struggles. Culture is indispensable. Without culture, no society can be built. Establishing a new democratic society is also impossible without culture. Therefore, Mao Zedong proposed, From now on, we should raise the issue of developing culture. Please consider and investigate it. By this winter, we will hold a meeting to discuss it.He emphasized the importance of cultural work, put it on the agenda, and pointed out that cultural work mainly includes four issues: schools, art, health, and newspapers.
The Yan'an period was one of the most brilliant historical periods of the CPC. In 1944, the CPC took root in the Shaanxi Gansu Ningxia Border Region, vigorously developed cultural and educational work, formulated a series of scientific and effective policies according to the actual situation, promoted the cultural prosperity and development of the border region, made brilliant achievements, and was a successful example of Chinese cultural and educational construction. Not only did it play a crucial role in improving the cultural level of the people, meeting the talent needs of the Anti Japanese War, enriching the cultural and artistic life of the border areas, dispelling superstitions, and ensuring the health of the people, but it also achieved significant results in war mobilization, laying a solid foundation for the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan. At the same time, it strengthened the political identity of the people in the border areas and consolidated the foundation of the Party's political power. The ideological concept of cultural and educational construction in New China has been continuously developed during this period, becoming a valuable asset for China's cultural and educational construction today.
To strengthen the research on the cultural and educational construction of the CPC in the Yan'an period, we must face up to history and take history as a mirror. Taking Marxism's historical materialism as the guiding ideology, relevant works and archives as research materials, adopting the literature research method, taking the "cultural and educational movement" in Yan'an period as the starting point, starting from history and reality, this paper summarizes and integrates the development of cultural and educational work at that time, summarizes the characteristics and effects of the CPC's implementation of cultural and educational work, and further discusses the important enlightenment and reference significance of the "cultural and educational movement" to the development of cultural and educational undertakings today.
