preface
In the long course of history, every change in the social system has been accompanied by profound thinking and controversy. In recent years, discussions have resurfaced about the "division of fields and the work alone" and the large collective production model, with some nostalgic for the collective warmth of the past and others firmly believing in the power of individual freedom and efficiency. However, the saying that "denying the division of the field and doing it alone is equivalent to forgetting the scar and forgetting the pain" is like a clear stream that has touched the heartstrings of countless people. It is not only a simple judgment of past policies, but also a profound reflection on the current social development path. So, is the era of the Great Collective really as carefree and spiritually rich as people remember? Does it really bring endless pain and pressure to work alone?
body
When it comes to the big collective, the first thing that comes to many people's minds is a hot labor scene, where everyone thinks and works together, as if the whole village is a big family. This power of unity, which did play a huge role in a given period, solved the problem of eating and strengthened social cohesion. However, when we unveil this layer of warmth, it is not difficult to find the hardships and helplessness behind it.
The shackles of productivity
In the era of large collectives, resources such as land and labor are highly concentrated, but there is a lack of effective incentive mechanisms and management methods, resulting in low production efficiency. It is not uncommon for peasants to "work but not to contribute" because no matter how much work they do, the grain they receive is fixed. This "big pot rice" system has seriously dampened people's enthusiasm and hindered the development of productive forces.
Lack of spiritual freedom
In a seemingly harmonious collective life, individual wishes and choices are often ignored. People live according to a unified plan, and individual hobbies, career plans, and even marital events may be interfered with by the collective will. This repression of individuality makes many people feel spiritually empty and depressed, and spiritual happiness is not as simple and pure as the outside world thinks.
The undercurrent of social contradictions
In the era of large collectives, although everyone shares weal and woe on the surface, in fact, problems such as the gap between the rich and the poor, conflicts of interest still exist. As a result of the uneven distribution of resources, some families remain chronically impoverished, while others may use their position for personal gain. These internal contradictions are superficially concealed, but once they erupt, their destructive power is often not to be underestimated.
Compared with large collectives, it is undoubtedly a bold attempt to divide the fields and go it alone. It breaks the original relations of production, returns the right to operate the land to the peasants, and stimulates their enthusiasm and creativity in production. However, this change has not been without its challenges, and it has also faced many challenges.
Liberation of the productive forces
After dividing the fields and working alone, farmers have more autonomy to adjust the planting structure, adopt new technologies and improve production efficiency according to their actual conditions. This transformation has greatly liberated the productive forces and promoted the rapid development of agricultural production. In a short period of time, many localities have achieved the goal of increasing grain output and peasants' incomes.
A new look of spirituality
With the increase in productivity and the improvement of living conditions, the spirit of the peasants has also taken on a new look. They are no longer satisfied with the problem of food and clothing, and begin to pursue higher spiritual needs. Cultural and recreational activities, education and training have gradually become an important part of their lives. This kind of spiritual change cannot be replaced by any material wealth.
Reshaping of the social structure
Dividing the land and working alone not only changed the mode of agricultural production, but also profoundly affected the social structure of the rural areas. Farmers began to adjust their production strategies according to market demand, forming a diversified economic pattern. At the same time, with the increase in the number of migrant workers, the connection between urban and rural areas is also getting closer. This reshaping of the social structure has injected new vitality into the all-round development of rural areas.
Looking back on history, it is not difficult for us to find that whether it is a large collective or a separate field, it has its unique advantages and limitations. The key lies in how to make the right choice according to the background of the times and the national conditions and people's conditions.
Respect the laws of history
The wheels of history are rolling forward, and any act that violates the laws of history will be punished. The glory and shadow of the era of the large collective, and the challenges and opportunities of dividing the land and working alone, are all the inevitable results of historical development. We should respect the laws of history, draw lessons from them, and provide reference for future development.
Pay attention to people's livelihood and well-being
Regardless of the mode of production, the ultimate goal is to improve people's livelihood and well-being. Therefore, when formulating policies, we should give full consideration to the interests and demands of the people to ensure that the policies can truly benefit the broad masses of the people. Only in this way can we win the support and support of the people and promote the sustained and healthy development of society.
Be brave in innovative practice
In the face of the complex and changeable social environment and the growing needs of the people for a better life, we should have the courage to innovate and practice, and constantly explore a development path that meets the requirements of the times. Whether it is a large collective or a separate field, it is the product of specific historical conditions. In the future development, we should adhere to the spirit of advancing with the times, pioneering and innovating, and constantly promote the reform and improvement of agricultural production methods and social governance systems.
epilogue
"Denying the division of the field and working alone is equivalent to healing the scar and forgetting the pain", although this sentence is sharp but full of profound meaning. It reminds us that when reviewing history, we must maintain a sober mind and an objective attitude, and we must not only see the achievements and progress of the past, but also face up to the existing problems and shortcomings. At the same time, it also inspires us to have the courage to take responsibility and innovate in the future development, and constantly explore a development path that is in line with national conditions and people's conditions.
