《詩選(1953.9–1955.12)》에 대한 시선(視線) — 과도시기 총노선의 정치경제 방향성을 중심으로

Abstract

《A Collection of Poems》 is a collection of poems published from 1953 to 1955 after the declaration of the abolition of the new democratic system. 《A Collection of Poems》 contains more than 120 works by more than 100 poets, and the theme of poetry is related to politics or economy. Therefore, this paper analyzes the situation of the times at the time from a critical perspective, focusing on politics and economy, and draws the following conclusions. First, the poems of 《A Collection of Poems》 usually focused on embodying an exemplary worker image based on socialist realism. In particular, it educated and promoted the political ideology of the communist spirit and revolutionary ideology by establishing the image of young workers serving the state and the people. One of them is noteworthy in the fact that it highlighted the figure of young female workers with excellent industrial technology. The purpose of using young female workers as the main characters is that young workers were needed at the industrial site and were in line with the Communist Party regime’s catchphrase aimed at an equal society. Second, although 《A Collection of Poems》 is a collection of poems for political propaganda, regardless of the artist’s intention, it was possible to guess the poor labor scene at the time through the background of the poem. 《A Collection of Poems》 is a political propaganda published historically during a special transition period, so I think the fact that the society of the time can be understood through the backside of the work is the material significance of 《A Collection of Poems》. Third, the abolition of the new democratic system seemed to be aiming for people’s democracy externally, but it was actually a political strategy to concentrate central power. The abolition of the new democratic system by the Chinese government in 1953 was closely related to the outbreak of the Korean War. The Chinese Communist government established the first five-year plan in 1953 based on the Soviet Union, but the funds and technology were insufficient. Mao’s Communist Party implemented land reform to raise industrial funds. Land reform was carried out quickly and forcibly without proper consent from farmers. Mao’s land reform itself has a serious problem in that it used farmers as a means rather than an end, and I think this has become the first step in the structure that creates an economic gap between urban and rural areas in the future.
