Abstract: Administrative divisions named after revolutionary figures are revolutionary resources created by the Communist Party of China to commemorate the revolutionary pioneers and to honor and remember the heroic figures. At the same time, as important part of Chinas toponymy, they have the special value of witnessing the history of the Party and carrying forward the revolutionary traditions. The naming of administrative divisions after revolutionary figures originated during the New Democratic Revolution, was abolished before and after the founding of the Peoples Republic of China, and then gradually stabilized. At the most prosperous time, they were widely distributed throughout the country, especially in revolutionary bases and old revolutionary base areas. The changes in the past century are all related to the background of the times, the needs of the situation, the internal nature of the symbols, the influence of the status and others alike. In the new era, sorting out, studying, and developing these precious revolutionary cultural resources will help further carry forward the revolutionary traditions and heritage and promote revolutionary culture. 

Key words: the Communist Party of China, revolutionary culture, revolutionary figures, revolutionary traditions, administrative divisions

摘要： 以红色人物命名行政区划是中国共产党为追念革命先驱，表彰、缅怀英模人物而创造的红色资源，同时作为中国地名的重要组成部分，具有见证党的历史、承载红色基因的特殊价值。生发于新民主主义革命时期，废减于中华人民共和国建立前后，之后渐趋稳定，最繁荣的时候曾经广泛分布在全国各地尤其是革命根据地和老区。百年的置撤之变，都有时代背景、形势所需和具象内质、地位影响等诸多方面相因相连。新时代整理、研究、开发这份珍贵红色文化资源，有利于进一步继承红色基因、弘扬红色文化。
