新中国成立初期皖西北地区治淮运动的初步研究

1950年的淮河水灾催生了中央的治淮决策。历经淮河水灾影响的皖西北地区在这场治淮运动中,成为当然的主阵地。不过随着工程的不断延续,以及水灾影响的慢慢退却,皖西北民众的治淮态度由最初的积极转向消极。民众态度的转变并未影响政府的治淮决策,基层政府通过将治淮纳入政治轨道完成了所必需的人力物力动员。这一举措,在将治淮推向政治运动旋涡的同时,也弱化了工程的水利效益。

Preliminary Studies of the Campaign of Harnessing the Huaihe River of the Northwest Area of Anhui in the Early Days of New China

The disastrous Huaihe River flood in 1950 prompted the central authorities of China to adopt the decision to harness the river.The Northwest Area of Anhui where the heaviest losses were caused by the floods became logically the principal battlefield in this campaign.However,with the endless delay of the project and the gradual alleviation of losses caused by the flood,the people of Northwest Anhui became less enthusiastic about the project.But the passive attitude of local villagers did not affect the government’s decision.The governments at grassroots levels channeled the campaign of harnessing the Huaihe River into the political track,thus successfully carrying out the mobilization of human and material resources needed by the campaign.This initiative involved the campaign into the political whirlpool and weakened its hydraulic effects.
