Ordinary People's Identity Anxiety and Identity Consciousness:the Microscopic Representation of the Progress of Chinese Political Civilization Since the Reform and Opening up——Based on the Analysis of the Main Roles in A Lifelong Journey
Reform and opening up have lasted for more than 40 years,which is an era of great changes in Chinese i-dentity consciousness.After the baptism of reform and opening up,the identity consciousness of the Chinese people has undergone a qualitative leap,and is undergoing a fundamental change from the common identity indifference and identity discrimination for thousands of years to the gradual realization of identity consciousness.This may be a dee-per and innermost change with more civilizing significance compared with economic and social development.With the help of this profound change,Chinese people have taken a great step forward in their subjective consciousness,and this change will undoubtedly be reflected in ordinary citizens.In A Lifelong Journey,Zhou Bingkun,as the rep-resentative of ordinary people in the lower society,is one of the majority of ordinary people who have experienced changes in the reform era but have no great wealth.He and people like him generally experienced the process from identity comfort to identity anxiety and then to identity consciousness,and recorded the rich course of ordinary peo-ple's identity change in the reform era.Based on the original work of A Lifelong Journey and the content of the TV series,through the comprehensive analysis of the main character Zhou Bingkun's process from identity anxiety to i-dentity consciousness,we can get a insight into the historical context and lessons of subjectivity consciousness in the change era of China,and then provide some useful enlightenment for promoting the growth of Chinese people's inde-pendent consciousness in the new era.
