This year the twelfth month of the lunar year 26 ability come home, with in former years, almost every time comes home the change that spends the New Year to be able to feel home town change with each passing day, for example again many family lids went up this year pretty new building, the logic of ultimate a loess in governmental general village undertook cement sclerosis, still invest pair of road both sides all houses undertook modelling is handled restoring ancient ways, the appearance of home town is in had looked brand-new again over some gigantic about-face foundations originally.
Besides the change on these visions, the change of home town is reflected likewise go up with smell on hearing, little on hearing the bang in Pi firecracker sound, little on smell thick smell of gunpowder, the backside of these changes has a common cause, namely home town came true to ban whip in the round this year, it is a city not only, the country also prohibited setting off firework cracker, this one ban lets this pass some " different " .
Firecracker has very important place in the culture system of home town, be in especially spend the New Year this one important traditional culture is consuetudinary in the activity, having especially principal culture port. In the culture system of home town, firecracker is indicative flourishing, having the function of exorcise evil spirits, firecracker can appear in all and important culture activity program almost, include the year ago decline between close friends year with after year pay a New Year call, those who congratulate reunion is round year of meal, the dusk of the New Year's Eve is ancestral visit a grave to cherish the memory of the dead " send bright " , when stepping the end of the year " piece row " celebration.
It is before in these culture activities, firecracker is indispensable, was gifted " festival " , " exorcise evil spirits " wait for principal port, mix in reunion meal especially a travel in these two the most significant consuetudinary activities, the show share of firecracker is matchless more, have reunion anteprandial it is to should put whip not only, put thunder of sound of on a few flute even, sound means day of the coming year to pass more prosperously greatly more; "Piece row " when it is whole village set off firecracker firework together, occasion extensive great is flowery, the person of whole village can stand see a firework outside, what the occasion that touchs flourishing brings is festival; In going close to seek the friendly, course that pays a New Year call each other, the time that firecracker sets off grows to also mean a blessing more more, relationship is closer, firecracker was formed below the words condition that spend the New Year a series of culture set, included deep culture sense.
This year banning whip is above all advocate by the government. From the twelfth month of the lunar year first at the beginning, our place government with respect to make known to lower levels the ban that sets off firework cracker about prohibiting, made relevant condemnatory resolution, basically be right not the villager of comply with ban undertakes fining condemnatory.
The volunteer extends " prohibit setting off handbill of firework cracker announce " . China of vision of picture origin @
The reason that this locality government bans whip is very sufficient, it is the purpose that stems from environmental protection above all, of firecracker set off build the lively flavor that gave to spend the New Year on one hand, also released many harmful gas on the other hand, be in especially the night of the New Year's Eve is one-time after setting off many firecracker firework, there is a light smell of gunpowder from beginning to end in the air of first day of the lunar year;
It is firecracker brought tremendous safe hidden trouble next, include to be hurt to mix by firework cracker blast silvan fire, similar issue has every year happen, especially fire, be located in as a result of home town a mountainous area, shan Gaolin is close, rate of establish coverture top is high, a lot of grace mound are to be among the woods, the forest also is all round a lot of houses surround, spend the New Year every year consequently ancestor of hold a memorial ceremony for and give the firecracker firework of travel to set off, always cause a few fire inevitably, although scale is not large, but the risk is very big however;
Finally is to avoid grandiose waste, as the domestic condition of the villager is increasingly abundant in recent years, the villager is in set off firework cracker to go up to also become gradually " easy " rise, very scarce before firework has become very common now, so that the villager appeared certain " vie " psychology, if him firework was put in neighbour home,do not put in the home one is impassable on some face it seems that, the result is the villager expenditure on firework cracker becomes increasing, become burden of a kind of economy.
Interesting is, the relevant punishment provision that local government institute makes does not have the use on the clique at all it seems that, because be a government almost,publish relevant policy, the villager stopped to set off the activity of firecracker with respect to immediately. To " ban whip to make " , the villager is done not have almost any defy, accepted policy very quickly instead.
Actually, if be the villager is determined to not be willing to ban whip, even if the castigatory measure related existence, the ban also is implemented hard, because impossible after all somebody runs to us in night of the New Year's Eve,the villager is supervised to must not set off firework cracker in a village. Consequently of the ban because our place government still retained very strong authority to the villager,be being carried out strictly is of course on one hand, on the other hand more important is, in because ban,imagining without us so let a person be accepted hard, got used to the demand of instantly villager however. In the communication with family, many people tell me " banning whip is a favour, banning the influence that whip brings is benefit is more than fraud " .
To the villager, the only disadvantage that bans whip depends on " seem not lively " , but having more profit however, the cost that spends the New Year namely above all decreased a lot of, because firecracker is in the extreme importance in system of home town culture, the firecracker amount that needs every year to be used consequently is very large, often had needed hundreds of yuan of expenditure that get on 1000 yuan even; It is to banned whip to reduce pollution really next, the village after night of every time the New Year's Eve always was full of all sorts of gas and solid contaminant, had been in even in a few days of around year, always be little in the air of home town not that one powerful smell of gunpowder; Finally is to ban whip to let all need use the literacy program of firecracker to become simple a lot of, the rubbish after setting off firecracker especially is cleaned, this is in in former years often is " major project " .
These firecracker set off brought issue to accompanying villager economy condition ameliorate and serious with each passing day, what although a lot of villagers had appeared from this,go up in certain level to firecracker is cheesed, but in be in such culture atmosphere personally, do not have a person to be able to express to object to this one tradition alone, because set off firecracker,had needed to turn the culture that everybody must do it into the standard to its function from the villager in this one process. For all that, but the home town of instantly had lost the constituent unit that can form all to photograph a gender to the villager, face when the villager " must put firecracker " pressure when, also do not have a person to be able to change this one standard, its are everybody as a result can passive bear. Consequently to the villager, ban whip to did not form the culture that forms for a long time to them not only consuetudinary create a challenge, still got at the same time the welcome of the villager, consequently ability can form the boycott that bans whip to did not suffer the villager not only, instead very the current situation that is accepted by the villager easily. The backside that ban whip is the villager and government it seems that " conspire " .
The village after banning whip was immersed in at this point halcyon, the villager always has various other measures to make " lively " atmosphere, the village had connected reticle a few this years, the villager also used equipment of sound of intelligent TV, intelligence to wait, some villager choices reach TV switch musical software, broadcast the song of New Year theme aloud; Some villagers are to use sound box of smartphone join intelligence, broadcast firecracker sound to replace with acoustics put firecracker; In " send bright " in the process of pay respects to sb at his tomb, the villager is the candle that replaced a tradition with electronic lamp...
Ban whip to appear and did not give spend the New Year bring a lot of negative effects, produce ascensive setting fall likewise in rural society, people had enough the inconvenience that much means will come to should be brought to banning whip, not only such, in the creation of a variety of new way, the villager had the freedom that has choosing again, be able to come down to choose oneself way that congratulates New Year in new social setting and oneself new requirement, and these new way also can become gradually new consuetudinary with the following tradition, if send in pay respects to sb at his tomb,electronic lamp is used to replace the candle in shining, because its are simple safe, had gotten be admissived generally, become instantly visit a grave to cherish the memory of the dead the new way of ancestor of hold a memorial ceremony for.
To banning whip, the public opinion atmosphere that moved toward lean to one side is it seems that on the net, the netizen thinks to ban whip to let spend the New Year did not have year of flavour, destroyed a tradition consuetudinary; The netizen plaints ban whip to let " scintilla silver is cultivated not nocturnal day " traditional Chengjing is gone forever. But very apparent this is the perspective that serves as the person that view and admire, to them, setting spends rural life, be them view and admire an object, then they are the appearance in wanting to let its turn them into ideal to the greatest desire of the country, this unique to there just are its them value -- the aesthetic feeling in a kind of their illusion, so to them, banning whip is incorrect, because this destroyed their imagination to the country.
But to the farmer, the country is not setting change however their real life, it is to need one frame one frame is true spent life, the demand that they live to the country is not to view and admire a gender however of practicality, this makes they are having to rural life more stereo with think in the round. When consequently government office of be in power asks to ban whip, although destroyed a tradition, but object without the person however, because ban whip,be accord with of the life demand with actual villager.
Below new period setting, the country has been pristine rural area no longer, this kind of changes included the changes of villatic society structure to also include the person's changes already, a when bring about finally important result is the changes of villager demand. Go up in firecracker problem for example, firecracker still is firecracker, but the country ran, the villager changed, then the meaning of firecracker also changed. the villager that has produced changes to demand and understanding, firecracker to spending the New Year had been to must be tasted no longer, it is a harm instead, because of the villager to changing character, they had enjoyed the festive atmosphere that firecracker brings no longer, the expenditure that brings painfully at firecracker however and pollution, meanwhile, the festive atmosphere that spend the New Year also has needed to rely on traditional firecracker to make no longer, had more replacing however means.
Below this one setting, serve as a kind when traditional culture mandatory when force forces the villager to still need to put firecracker, traditional culture is the service life at the villager no longer, become malapropos however. The government regards a kind of explicit organization as sexual force, have appropriate change to traditional culture, make more the life demand of joint villager, what this brings is not the be on the wane of traditional culture, however the progress of traditional culture.
