總之，我以為，在中國媒體的“官方色彩”問題上，出路不應(yīng)是去官方化。關(guān)鍵在于“官方”本身的階級性質(zhì)和媒體的階級立場。不是中國媒體的“官方色彩”的問題，而是一個(gè)宣稱是社會(huì)主義國家的官方媒體，有沒有體現(xiàn)“社會(huì)至上”的原則和表達(dá)最大多數(shù)勞動(dòng)者的立場，才是最值得關(guān)心的問題。

On What Will Power the China Story

—Global Communication Order and the Competition for Cultural Leadership

Zhao Yuezhi

Abstract: The concept of “soft power” originated in particular world geo-political and U.S. domestic political contexts. Its efficacy is inextricably linked to American “hard power” and predicated upon the reality of American global hegemony. Therefore, it is highly problematic for dominant Chinese policy and academic discourses to be framed by this American originated “soft power” concept. In contrast, the notion of cultural leadership offers a more comprehensive, inclusive and profound theoretical framework because it contains a class analysis perspective and strategies for achieving human emancipation by overthrowing the capitalist system. In order to boost China’s international discursive right and promote democratization in global communication, it will be necessary to not only consider cooperation with emerging countries in the areas of media and Internet governance, but also democratize China’s domestic communication order. This entails resisting the corrosive impacts of cultural ideology of neoliberalism, revitalizing critical media and communication theories with socialist and internationalist orientations, and above all, insisting upon the priority of the social and foregrounding the standpoint of the vast majority of China’s laboring people.

Keywords: soft power, cultural leadership, international discursive right, commercialized culture, class
