Prospect and suggestion of Zhanjiang's annual case

This is a traditional custom. In the process of inheritance and development, chronology not only combines the contents of healthy progress, but also permeates many low-level declining things, which not only enlivens cultural exchanges, but also breeds unhealthy trends of feudal superstition, extravagance and corruption, and waste of comparison-some people make face-saving projects through chronology; In some places, temples and luxurious superstitious halls are built with great fanfare. Are these outstanding problems allowed to appear naturally? Or guide it to make it develop healthily?

Folk culture is a subtle social education and an effective warning to the people. Some folklore experts believe: "The statute is to let people experience the same activities automatically in a concentrated period of time, and experience the same value in the same ceremony with the help of the power of customs, so that a society with the same * * * will let people continue harmoniously. This is the most economical and effective reproduction function of traditional festivals. " Under the political system of feudal history, folk festivals and ceremonies were allowed, and government officials enthusiastically participated in various festivals. The purpose is to use the folk customs of festivals to inspire people, realize the social fashion of unity and friendship, and promote the construction of national spiritual civilization. So, how should we view the chronology today when the new society is in charge of spiritual civilization construction? First of all, as a big culture, the annual statute contains huge and rich cultural wealth, and the government should do a good job of excavation and protection to extract material and spiritual wealth from it. Secondly, chronology, as a traditional folk custom, can only guide, not stop. The government should distinguish the contents of worship of gods and religious beliefs from a scientific point of view, and should not always label them as "feudal superstitions", but should fully consider their influence on social life. Thirdly, as a carrier, chronology can become a channel for advanced culture to occupy rural areas. The government should strengthen correct guidance, resist bad atmosphere, constantly enrich content and form, and improve the cultural taste of annual regulations; It is necessary to organize the creation of spiritual food popular with the masses, rehearse various forms of entertainment programs for the masses, let new cultures and new ideas flourish in rural areas, and make the New Year a cultural festival for farmers in the new period.
