Strengthening the Protection and Utilization of Revolutionary Cultural Relics
高一凡:加强革命文物保护利用
General Secretary Xi Jinping has stressed that “revolutionary cultural relics carry the glorious history of the heroic struggle of the Party and the people, record the great course and moving deeds of the Chinese revolution, are valuable assets of the Party and the state, and are vivid teaching materials for promoting the revolutionary tradition and revolutionary culture, strengthening socialist cultural-ethical progress, arousing patriotic fervor, and invigorating the national spirit,” and that “strengthening the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics, promoting revolutionary culture, and passing on the red gene are the common responsibility of the entire Party and the whole society.” These important expositions profoundly clarify the great significance, objectives and tasks, and basic requirements of work on revolutionary cultural relics, embody the high importance attached to such work by the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, and provide the fundamental guidance for us to do a good job of revolutionary cultural relics work in the New Era.
习近平总书记强调,“革命文物承载党和人民英勇奋斗的光荣历史,记载中国革命的伟大历程和感人事迹,是党和国家的宝贵财富,是弘扬革命传统和革命文化、加强社会主义精神文明建设、激发爱国热情、振奋民族精神的生动教材”,“加强革命文物保护利用,弘扬革命文化,传承红色基因,是全党全社会的共同责任”。这些重要论述深刻阐明了革命文物工作的重大意义、目标任务和基本要求,体现了以习近平同志为核心的党中央对革命文物工作的高度重视,为我们做好新时代革命文物工作提供了根本遵循。
I. Building a Scientific Protection System for Revolutionary Cultural Relics
一、构建革命文物科学保护体系
Revolutionary cultural relics should be strictly protected, restored to their original state while preserving their original appearance, so that the value of revolutionary cultural relics can be better interpreted, the vivid stories they carry can be better told, red resources can be better utilized, and the red gene can be better passed on. Data from the National Cultural Heritage Administration show that nationwide, more than 36,000 immovable revolutionary cultural relics and over 1 million pieces/sets of movable revolutionary cultural relics have been registered. However, a large number of revolutionary sites and related cultural relics still suffer from problems such as long-term disrepair and inadequate protection measures. To this end, the principle of “protection first, rescue first, rational utilization, and strengthened management” should be adhered to, a comprehensive, multi-level scientific protection system should be established, the standardization, institutionalization, and legalization of revolutionary cultural relics protection should be advanced, and the quality and level of revolutionary cultural relics protection should be comprehensively improved.
革命文物应当受到严格保护,修旧如旧,保持原貌,才能更好地把革命文物的价值阐释好,把革命文物承载的生动故事讲述好,把红色资源利用好,把红色基因传承好。国家文物局数据显示,全国已登记不可移动革命文物3.6万余处,可移动革命文物100多万件/套。但仍有大量革命旧址及相关文物存在年久失修、保护措施不到位等问题。为此,应坚持“保护为主、抢救第一、合理利用、加强管理”的方针,建立全方位、多层次的科学保护体系,推进革命文物保护规范化、制度化、法治化,全面提高革命文物保护质量和水平。
Improving the graded and classified protection mechanism. In recent years, the state has gradually carried out graded and classified protection of revolutionary cultural relics, and a relevant protection mechanism has been basically established. However, problems such as linear grading, single classification, and poor operation still exist, and a systematic, three-dimensional scientific protection system has not yet been perfected. On the one hand, in addition to graded protection according to traditional administrative levels such as province, city, and county, a graded list should also be established based on the historical value, degree of endangerment, and difficulty of protection of revolutionary cultural relics, so as to distinguish protection levels in terms of priority, order of urgency, and hierarchy. On the other hand, as the discovery and excavation of revolutionary cultural relics continues to deepen and expand, detailed classification and protection rules for revolutionary cultural relics should be established in accordance with relevant typological norms. For example, distinctions should be made between immovable and movable revolutionary cultural relics, and between tangible and intangible revolutionary cultural heritage, and refined classified management and protection should be carried out according to type categories such as material, function, form, style, structure, and craftsmanship.
完善分级分类保护机制。近年来,国家对革命文物逐步开展分级分类保护,相关保护机制基本建立。但还存在线性分级、单一分类、运行不畅等问题,系统性、立体化的科学保护体系尚未健全。一方面,除按传统的省市县等行政层级进行分级保护外,还应根据革命文物的历史价值、濒危程度、保护难易等确立分级名录,以区分轻重缓急、优先顺序、高低层次等保护级别。另一方面,随着革命文物发现发掘的不断深入拓展,按照类型学相关规范,建立革命文物详细分类和保护细则。例如,区分不可移动和可移动革命文物、物质革命文化遗产与非物质革命文化遗产,以及根据材质、功能、形态、样式、结构、工艺等类型类别进行精细化分类管理保护。
Strengthening the empowerment of protection through modern science and technology. In October 2023, the Opinions on Strengthening Scientific and Technological Innovation in Cultural Relics, jointly issued by 13 departments including the Central Propaganda Department, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, and the National Cultural Heritage Administration, proposed “giving full play to the supporting and leading role of science and technology in the development of cultural relics work” and “prioritizing the filling of gaps in basic scientific and technological conditions.” The newly revised Cultural Relics Protection Law in 2024 encourages the conduct of scientific research on cultural relics protection, promotes the application of advanced and suitable cultural relics protection technologies, and raises the scientific and technological level of cultural relics protection. In today’s era of rapid scientific and technological development, the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics should further strengthen the empowerment of science and technology, endowing static revolutionary cultural relics with dynamic vitality. On the one hand, the excavation, cleaning, protection, and reinforcement of revolutionary cultural relics cannot be separated from the application of new technologies and new materials. On the other hand, advanced computer technology, artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, and other modern high technologies should be actively utilized, and three-dimensional scanning, virtual reconstruction, high-precision photography, digital editing, etc., should be actively explored, to provide important guarantees and solid support for the permanent preservation and sustainable utilization of revolutionary cultural relics.
强化现代科技赋能保护。2023年10月,中央宣传部、文化和旅游部、国家文物局等13个部门联合印发的《关于加强文物科技创新的意见》提出,“充分发挥科学技术对文物事业发展的支撑引领作用”,“优先补齐科技基础条件短板”。2024年新修订的文物保护法,鼓励开展文物保护的科学研究,推广先进适用的文物保护技术,提高文物保护的科学技术水平。在科技发展日新月异的今天,革命文物保护利用应进一步强化科技赋能,赋予静态革命文物以动态的生命力。一方面,革命文物的挖掘、清洗、防护、加固等离不开新技术新材料的加持运用。另一方面,积极运用先进计算机技术、人工智能、大数据、云计算等现代高科技,积极探索三维扫描、虚拟重建、高精度摄影、数字化编辑等,为革命文物永久保存和永续利用提供重要保障和坚实支撑。
Establishing and improving laws and regulations. The newly revised Cultural Relics Protection Law has brought the protection of revolutionary cultural relics onto a legal track, including allowing local governments to formulate supporting regulations, delineate protection red lines, and clarify control requirements, thereby further improving the cultural relics protection management system and building a legal barrier for “ensuring protection of all that should be protected.” China’s revolutionary cultural relics are characterized by their large number, wide distribution, difficulty of protection, and lack of standardized utilization. There is an urgent need to further improve special regulations on the protection of revolutionary cultural relics, and to coordinate the advancement of rescue and preventive protection, intrinsic and peripheral protection, single-point and cluster protection, as well as constructive and normative protection, ensuring that the historical authenticity, stylistic integrity, and cultural continuity of revolutionary cultural relics are fully displayed. At the same time, the support mechanism for revolutionary cultural relics protection should be improved, policy supply and resource factor support should be strengthened, and local governments should be encouraged to adapt measures to local conditions and innovatively introduce more original and differentiated reform measures, so as to enhance the governance efficiency in the field of revolutionary cultural relics.
建立健全法规制度。新修订的文物保护法将革命文物保护纳入法治化轨道,包括地方政府可制定配套法规,划定保护红线,明确管控要求等,进一步完善文物保护管理制度,筑牢“应保尽保”的法治屏障。我国革命文物具有数量众多、分布广泛、保护难度大、利用欠规范等特点,亟需进一步健全革命文物保护专项法规,统筹推进抢救性与预防性保护、本体性与周边性保护、单点化与集群化保护以及建设性与规范性保护,确保革命文物的历史真实性、风貌完整性和文化延续性得以全面展现。同时,完善革命文物保护支持机制,强化政策供给和资源要素支持,鼓励地方因地制宜、创新推出更多原创性、差异化改革举措,提高革命文物领域治理效能。
II. Activating the Contemporary Value of Revolutionary Cultural Relics
二、激活革命文物时代价值
General Secretary Xi Jinping has stressed that “cultural relics and cultural heritage carry the genes and bloodline of the Chinese nation and are non-renewable, irreplaceable resources of fine Chinese civilization. They belong not only to our generation but also to future generations.” We must conscientiously implement the Party Central Committee’s work requirements of adhering to protection first, strengthening management, excavating value, effective utilization, and bringing cultural relics to life, adhere to upholding fundamental principles and breaking new ground, and effectively protect, manage, and utilize revolutionary cultural relics, raise the level of research, interpretation, display, and dissemination of revolutionary cultural relics, and truly bring revolutionary cultural relics to life.
习近平总书记强调,“文物和文化遗产承载着中华民族的基因和血脉,是不可再生、不可替代的中华优秀文明资源。不仅属于我们这一代人,也属于子孙万代”。我们必须认真贯彻落实党中央关于坚持保护第一、加强管理、挖掘价值、有效利用、让文物活起来的工作要求,坚持守正创新,切实把革命文物保护好、管理好、运用好,提高革命文物研究阐释和展示传播水平,让革命文物真正活起来。
Adhering to upholding fundamental principles and breaking new ground in the rational utilization of revolutionary cultural relics. In June 2023, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in his important speech at the Symposium on Cultural Heritage Development and Inheritance that “in cultural construction, upholding fundamental principles is necessary to avoid losing oneself and losing direction, and breaking new ground is necessary to grasp the times and lead the times,” and that “cultural workers in the New Era must, with the integrity and drive to uphold fundamental principles and break new ground, continue the historical cultural lineage and write a contemporary chapter.” The scientific, rational, and effective utilization of revolutionary cultural relics should adhere to the basic principle of upholding fundamental principles and breaking new ground. “Upholding fundamental principles” means adhering to the foundation and original aspiration, and adhering to the ideals and convictions, patriotic spirit, and tradition of struggle carried by revolutionary cultural relics. “Breaking new ground” means creatively revitalizing and utilizing them, enhancing the vitality and appeal of revolutionary cultural relics. The unity of historical authenticity and contemporary innovation, the unity of material protection and spiritual inheritance, the unity of cultural value and social benefits, and the unity of government leadership and social participation should be upheld, and the inheritance and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics should be comprehensively coordinated and systematically advanced. Only by developing through protection and utilization, and innovating through inheritance and continuation, can revolutionary cultural relics move from static display to dynamic empowerment, becoming a profound nourishment for strengthening socialist cultural-ethical progress.
坚持守正创新合理利用革命文物。2023年6月,习近平总书记在文化传承发展座谈会上的重要讲话中指出,“对文化建设来说,守正才能不迷失自我、不迷失方向,创新才能把握时代、引领时代”,“新时代的文化工作者必须以守正创新的正气和锐气,赓续历史文脉、谱写当代华章”。革命文物的科学合理有效利用,应当坚持守正创新的基本原则。“守正”就是要坚守根本和初心,坚守革命文物所承载的理想信念、爱国精神、奋斗传统等。“创新”就是要创造性地活化利用,增强革命文物的生命力、感染力。坚持历史真实性与时代创新性相统一、物质保护与精神传承相统一、文化价值与社会效益相统一、政府主导与社会参与相统一,全面协调、统筹系统推进革命文物的传承利用。只有在保护利用中发展、在传承接续中创新,才能让革命文物从静态陈列走向动态赋能,成为加强社会主义精神文明建设的深厚滋养。
Promoting the integration of revolutionary cultural relics utilization with cultural and tourism development. The Special Plan for the Protection and Utilization of Revolutionary Cultural Relics during the 14th Five-Year Plan Period, issued by the National Cultural Heritage Administration in December 2021, explicitly proposes launching themed itineraries for revolutionary cultural relics, building classic red tourism scenic spots, developing red cultural creative products, opening up public cultural spaces and providing public cultural services relying on revolutionary cultural relics, and continuously meeting the people’s ever-growing needs for a better life. The revitalization and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics should be deeply integrated with red cultural tourism and comprehensive rural revitalization, as well as with cultural and creative industries. The principle of “integrating where integration is appropriate, and integrating as much as possible” should be adhered to, and a three-in-one integrated development model of “cultural relics protection and utilization – cultural heritage promotion – industrial revitalization and development” should be constructed. The concept of co-building and sharing revolutionary cultural relics should be upheld, ensuring that the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics are for the people, rely on the people, and have their fruits shared by the people, forming a new pattern of revolutionary cultural relics protection and utilization in which red revolutionary culture is effectively inherited, regional economies develop in a coordinated manner, and the people’s needs for a better life are harmoniously met. At the same time, it must be recognized that the integration of revolutionary cultural relics with cultural tourism is by no means a simple matter of “putting up a sign and opening for sightseeing.” It is necessary to uphold a reverence for history and culture, coordinate tourism development and cultural relics protection, firmly safeguard the bottom line of safety, and cherish the spiritual wealth contained in revolutionary cultural relics.
推进革命文物利用与文旅融合发展。国家文物局2021年12月印发的《革命文物保护利用“十四五”专项规划》明确提出,推出革命文物主题游径,建设红色旅游经典景区,开发红色文化创意产品,依托革命文物开辟公共文化空间、提供公共文化服务,不断满足人民日益增长的美好生活需要。深入推进革命文物活化利用与红色文化旅游、乡村全面振兴等相结合,与文化创意等产业相融合,坚持“宜融则融,能融尽融”的原则,构建“文物保护利用—文化传承弘扬—产业振兴发展”三位一体融合发展模式。坚持革命文物共建共享理念,做到革命文物保护利用为了人民、依靠人民、成果由人民共享,形成红色革命文化有效传承、区域经济协调发展、人民美好生活需要协调发展的革命文物保护利用新格局。同时也要认识到,革命文物与文旅融合绝非简单“挂牌观光”,必须秉承敬畏历史、敬畏文化之心,统筹好旅游发展和文物保护,筑牢安全底线,珍视革命文物蕴含的精神财富。
Promote the integration of education on the protection, utilization and education of revolutionary cultural relics into the national education system. Revolutionary cultural relics are living history, rich in red culture, and behind each cultural relic lies a moving red story. Strengthen the educational function of revolutionary cultural relics, fully excavate, protect, and utilize this spiritual treasure trove of revolutionary cultural relics, transform historical materials into teaching materials, transform sites into classrooms, tell the Party’s story deeply, substantively, and thoroughly, and use the vivid teaching materials of revolutionary cultural relics to educate, enlighten, and inspire people. Through policy guidance, improve the long-term mechanism for primary and secondary schools to utilize revolutionary history museums (memorial halls) for study, and clearly stipulate that knowledge of the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics be incorporated into the primary and secondary education system and the cadre education system. Build a national-level “Shared Resource Bank for Revolutionary Cultural Relic Education,” expand the forms and pathways for revolutionary cultural relic resources to empower “grand ideological-political courses”[n] teaching, improve the working mechanism, form a strong synergy between revolutionary cultural relic resources and the construction of school ideological-political courses, and transform revolutionary cultural relics from “static exhibitions” into “dynamic education,” truly making them a cultural carrier that cultivates the soul, enlightens the mind, and nourishes the heart.
推动革命文物保护利用教育纳入国民教育体系。革命文物是鲜活的历史,蕴含着丰富的红色文化,每一件文物背后都有着动人的红色故事。强化革命文物教育功能,充分发掘、保护、利用革命文物这座精神富矿,把史料转化为教材、把现场转化为课堂,把党的故事讲深、讲实、讲透,用革命文物的生动教材来教育人、启迪人、鼓舞人。通过政策引导,完善中小学利用革命历史博物馆(纪念馆)学习长效机制,明确将革命文物保护利用常识纳入中小学教育体系和干部教育体系。建设国家级“革命文物教育资源共享库”,拓展革命文物资源赋能“大思政课”教学的样态和路径,健全工作机制,形成革命文物资源与学校思政课建设强大合力,让革命文物从“静态展陈”转为“动态育人”,真正成为培根铸魂、启智润心的文化载体。
III. Expand the Social Influence of Revolutionary Cultural Relics
三、扩大革命文物社会影响
With the development of the times, the methods, scope, and channels of information dissemination have undergone profound changes. The protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics should also keep pace with the times, actively seeking more display and dissemination methods that meet the needs of the masses and keep up with the trends of the era, enhance communication effectiveness, expand the social reach and influence of revolutionary cultural relics, enable more people to understand revolutionary cultural relics and the stories behind them, and ensure that the red gene is passed down from generation to generation.
随着时代的发展,信息的传播方式、范围和渠道发生了深刻转变。革命文物的保护利用也应与时俱进,积极探寻更多满足群众需求、紧跟时代潮流的展示传播方式,提升传播效果,扩大革命文物的社会传播力和影响力,让更多人了解革命文物和文物背后的故事,让红色基因代代相传。
Utilize new media platforms. Currently, emerging technologies such as 5G, big data, cloud computing, and virtual reality are constantly emerging; the opinion ecosystem, media landscape, and communication methods are undergoing profound changes; and online information dissemination is characterized by mobility, personalization, leisure orientation, and interactivity. These changes bring new opportunities and challenges to the inheritance of the red gene and the dissemination of revolutionary culture. Innovate the methods, forms, and pathways for disseminating revolutionary cultural relics, build an omnimedia communication matrix for revolutionary cultural relics, and comprehensively utilize diverse new media forms, popular language, and artistic formats to strengthen the communication effectiveness of revolutionary cultural relics. Fully utilize online media platforms, through communication forms such as short videos, micro-films, micro-animations, and video accounts, produce a batch of audio-visual works on stories of revolutionary cultural relics, revolutionary sites, and revolutionary figures, create “red micro-classrooms at your fingertips,” and assist in the promotion and popularization of revolutionary cultural relics. Further strengthen innovation in concepts, content, and forms, truly making revolutionary cultural relics “shine,” “come alive,” and “heat up,” enhance their appeal and influence on the public, especially young students, expand the breadth and depth of the dissemination and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics, and improve the quality and level of their dissemination and utilization.
运用新媒体平台。当前,5G、大数据、云计算、虚拟现实等新兴技术不断涌现,舆论生态、媒体格局、传播方式发生深刻变化,网络信息传播呈现移动化、个性化、休闲化、互动化等特点。这些变化给红色基因传承、革命文化传播带来新的机遇和挑战。创新革命文物传播方式、形态和途径,打造革命文物全媒体传播矩阵,综合运用新媒体多样态方式、大众性语言、艺术化形式强化革命文物传播效能。充分利用网络媒体平台,通过短视频、微电影、微动画、视频号等传播形态,拍摄一批革命文物故事、革命旧址、革命人物等影音作品,打造“指尖上的红色微课堂”,助力革命文物的宣传推广。进一步在理念、内容、形式等方面强化创新,真正让革命文物“亮”起来、“活”起来、“热”起来,提升对社会公众特别是青少年学生的吸引力和影响力,拓展革命文物传播利用的广度和深度,提高革命文物的传播利用质量和水平。
Promote social coordination. The dissemination of revolutionary cultural relics is not solely the responsibility of cultural, tourism, and cultural relics departments; it requires the coordinated participation of cultural relics and museum, cultural tourism, education, propaganda, science and technology departments, as well as social organizations, enterprises and institutions, the public, and other diverse entities and forces across the entire chain and society. Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC[n], a series of policies and plans have been intensively introduced; relevant departments have strengthened collaboration and taken action; local governments have actively followed up and taken the initiative, jointly promoting revolutionary cultural relics work to show an upward and positive trend. On the new journey of the New Era, to better leverage the role of revolutionary cultural relics in promoting revolutionary traditions and revolutionary culture, inspiring patriotic fervor, and invigorating the national spirit, it is necessary to continuously strengthen social coordination and multi-party linkage in the dissemination of revolutionary cultural relics, actively integrate cultural relics and museum institutions, the education system, media platforms, social organizations, and public forces, form a diverse ecological system for the dissemination of revolutionary cultural relics, so that everyone becomes a narrator of revolutionary stories, a disseminator of red culture, and a promoter of the revolutionary spirit, creating a favorable social atmosphere for the conscious inheritance of the red gene and the continuation of the red bloodline.
推进社会协同。革命文物的传播不只是文旅文物部门的事,需要文博、文旅、教育、宣传、科技等部门,以及社会组织、企事业、民众等全社会、全链条、多元化主体和力量的协同参与。党的十八大以来,一系列政策和规划密集出台,各相关部门加强协作、见诸行动,各地方积极跟进、主动作为,共同推动革命文物工作呈现向上向好的态势。新时代新征程,更好发挥革命文物弘扬革命传统和革命文化、激发爱国热情、振奋民族精神的作用,就要持续加强革命文物传播的社会协同与多方联动,积极整合文博机构、教育系统、媒体平台、社会组织和公众力量,形成革命文物传播的多元生态体系,让人人都成为革命故事的宣讲者、红色文化的传播者、革命精神的弘扬者,营造全社会自觉传承红色基因、赓续红色血脉的良好氛围。
Deepen international cooperation. International exchange and cooperation on revolutionary cultural relics is an important way to tell China’s story well, tell the story of the Communist Party of China well, and promote mutual learning among civilizations. Currently, the global dissemination and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics are of decisive significance for enhancing China’s cultural soft power and international discourse power. Fully utilize important milestones such as anniversary years of diplomatic relations, friendship years, and cultural and tourism years, cooperate with internationally renowned museums and memorial halls, and plan high-quality exhibitions focused on specific themes. Strengthen cooperation with international cultural relics and museum organizations such as the International Council of Museums (ICOM), carry out high-quality overseas exhibition projects for Chinese revolutionary cultural relics, and build a diplomatic brand for revolutionary cultural relics. Relying on national overseas cultural positions and institutions, carry out international cooperation in cultural relics and museum research with the Chinese revolution as the theme, and build multi-level, institutionalized platforms for cultural relics exchange and cooperation. Excavate the aesthetic elements, spiritual symbols, and cultural connotations within Chinese revolutionary cultural relics, carry out international cultural and creative cooperation and dissemination, and jointly build cooperative dissemination bases with foreign cultural relics institutions, among other measures. Through systematic international exchange and cooperation, make revolutionary cultural relics a bridge connecting China and foreign countries and linking hearts, enhancing the international communication power and influence of Chinese culture.
深化国际合作。革命文物国际交流合作是讲好中国故事、讲好中国共产党故事、促进文明交流互鉴的重要方式。当前,革命文物的全球传播利用,对于提升我国文化软实力和国际话语权有着举足轻重的意义。充分利用建交年、友好年、文化和旅游年等重要节点,与国际知名博物馆、纪念馆合作,策划聚焦特定主题的精品展览。加强与国际博物馆协会(ICOM)等国际文博组织合作,开展中国革命文物外展精品工程,打造革命文物外交品牌。依托国家海外文化阵地和海外机构,开展以中国革命为主题的文博研究国际合作,搭建多层次机制性文物交流合作平台。挖掘中国革命文物中的美学元素、精神符号与文化内涵,开展国际文创合作与传播,与国外文物机构共建合作传播基地,等等。通过系统性的国际交流合作,使革命文物成为沟通中外、连接心灵的桥梁,增强中华文化国际传播力与影响力。
IV. Establish a Long-Term Mechanism for the Protection and Utilization of Revolutionary Cultural Relics
四、建立革命文物保护利用长效机制
Revolutionary cultural relics are non-renewable and irreplaceable precious assets. Strengthening the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics is an important task for making good use of red resources and continuing the red bloodline. We must fully recognize the important role of revolutionary cultural relics in Party history study and education, revolutionary tradition education, and patriotic education, coordinate the work of protection, management, and utilization, establish a long-term mechanism for the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics, continuously stimulate the spiritual strength of the vast number of cadres and the masses, and strive with full confidence to build a modern socialist country in all respects and realize the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
革命文物是不可再生、不可替代的宝贵财富。加强革命文物保护利用,是用好红色资源、赓续红色血脉的重要任务。我们必须充分认识革命文物在党史学习教育、革命传统教育、爱国主义教育等方面的重要作用,统筹做好保护、管理、运用各项工作,建立革命文物保护利用长效机制,不断激发广大干部群众的精神力量,信心百倍为全面建设社会主义现代化国家、实现中华民族伟大复兴中国梦而奋斗。
Strengthen overall planning and organizational leadership. Firmly establish the scientific concept that protecting cultural relics is also an achievement in one’s political performance, attach great importance to revolutionary cultural relics work with a strong sense of political responsibility and historical mission, and implement the responsibility for protection and utilization. Strengthen top-level design, coordinate overall planning, establish a national-level coordination mechanism for the protection, utilization, and dissemination innovation of revolutionary cultural relics, comprehensively promote the national protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics, and local Party committees and governments should also establish corresponding coordination mechanisms. In the summary and evaluation of the implementation of the “14th Five-Year Plan”[n] in the cultural relics field, as well as in the formulation of the “15th Five-Year Plan” for the development of cultural relics undertakings, appropriately increase the weight of the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics, and make overall plans for the development plan of revolutionary cultural relics undertakings.
加强统筹规划与组织领导。牢固树立保护文物也是政绩的科学理念,以强烈的政治责任感和历史使命感,高度重视革命文物工作,落实保护利用责任。加强顶层设计,统筹协调规划,建立国家层面的革命文物保护利用与传播创新协调机制,统筹推进全国革命文物保护利用工作,地方党委和政府也应建立相应协同机制。在文物领域“十四五”规划实施情况总结评估,以及“十五五”文物事业发展规划编制中,适当加大革命文物保护利用的权重,统筹做好革命文物事业发展规划。
Increase fund raising and management efforts. The protection, utilization, and dissemination innovation of revolutionary cultural relics require sustained investment of substantial funds. Broaden fund-raising channels and establish a diversified fund guarantee mechanism. The central finance should establish a special fund for the protection of revolutionary cultural relics; local governments should include the protection of revolutionary cultural relics in their fiscal budgets; actively guide social funds to participate in revolutionary cultural relics work; and build a “government-led, society-participated, market-operated” fund-raising, investment, and sustainable development mechanism for increasing revenue. Strengthen the performance management and supervision and auditing of fiscal funds related to revolutionary cultural relics, through improving laws, regulations, and standards, increasing regulatory efforts, strengthening standardized fund management, and establishing a whole-process performance management system, ensure that every penny is used where it is most needed, and improve the quality and efficiency of the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics.
加大资金筹措与管理力度。革命文物的保护利用与传播创新,需要大量资金的持续投入保障。拓宽资金筹措渠道,建立多元化资金保障机制。中央财政应设立革命文物保护专项基金,地方政府应将革命文物保护纳入财政预算,积极引导社会资金参与革命文物工作,构建“政府主导、社会参与、市场运作”的资金筹措投入与可持续发展的开源增收机制。加强革命文物相关财政资金的绩效管理和监督审计,通过健全法规标准,加大监管力度,加强资金规范管理,建立全过程绩效管理制度,确保每一分钱都用在刀刃上,提高革命文物保护利用质效。
Accelerate the cultivation of composite specialized personnel. Practitioners in the field of revolutionary cultural relics protection and utilization possess a certain degree of particularity. They must not only master professional knowledge and skills in disciplines such as cultural relics protection, museums and curation, and cultural heritage, but also be familiar with basic knowledge in specialties such as the history and Party building of the Communist Party of China, Marxist theory, and journalism and communication. By innovating the talent cultivation mechanism, strengthening cooperation and linkage with relevant university disciplines, supporting universities in setting up professional directions such as revolutionary cultural relics protection and utilization and red culture dissemination, sharing "university-museum" faculty resources, constructing relevant curriculum systems, conducting targeted training for revolutionary cultural relics professional teachers, and accelerating the cultivation of interdisciplinary composite talents, we provide strong talent support for the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics. At the same time, strengthen the management of professional and technical personnel in cultural relics and museum institutions, and improve the mechanisms for talent cultivation, utilization, evaluation, and incentives. Implement the project for building a contingent of revolutionary cultural relics professionals in the New Era, strengthen the construction of teams for the protection, management, utilization, and research of revolutionary cultural relics, increase the intensity of cultivating leading talents and young and middle-aged backbone talents in the field of revolutionary cultural relics, explore the establishment of a qualification system for the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics, and timely carry out commendations and rewards for outstanding talents in the field of revolutionary cultural relics protection and utilization.
加快复合性专业人才培养。革命文物保护利用领域的从业人员具有一定的特殊性。既要掌握文物保护、博物馆与策展、文化遗产等学科的专业知识和技能,也要熟悉中共党史党建学、马克思主义理论、新闻传播学等专业基础知识。通过创新人才培养机制,加强与高校相关学科联动合作,支持高校设置革命文物保护利用、红色文化传播等专业方向,共享“校馆”师资资源,构建相关课程体系,定向培训革命文物专业师资,加快交叉学科复合性人才培养,为革命文物保护利用提供有力人才支撑。同时,加强文物与博物馆事业单位专业技术人才管理,健全人才培养、使用、评价和 激励机制。实施新时代革命文物专业人才建设工程,加强革命文物保护、管理、利用和研究人才队伍建设,加大革命文物领域领军人才、中青年骨干人才培养力度,探索建立革命文物保护利用从业资格制度,适时开展革命文物保护利用领域优秀人才表彰奖励。
