Wenchuan 5.12 Earthquake in 2008 ,having attracted worldwide attention ,is still shocking ,which has been being concerned by the Chinese people all over the world .The renewal (the restoration and reconstruction) after the earthquake in 2008 is in full swing, which has been expected to be completed in three years. Scientific communication in the post-earthquake reconstruction should not be underestimated, because inquiring scientific communication and its role in stricken areas after the seismic disaster is of positive significance for the restoration and reconstruction. China is prone to natural disasters like earthquakes, typhoon, for example, Wenchuan 5.12 8.0 -magnitude Earthquake followed, on April 14, 2010, 7.1-magnitude earthquake occurred in Yushu in Qinghai Province. It's good to see that on April 21 the Yushu earthquake reconstruction has been launched. Such renewal as post-seismic disaster reconstruction and southwestern drought disaster prevention should not neglect communication of science and technology, because it is important to hazard prevention and environment protection .It's good use practicing the scientific outlook on development.Communication of Science and Technology in the post-earthquake reconstruction in Sichuan is that the communicators mainly refers to disseminators especially public intellectuals disseminate scientific knowledge, scientific method, science and technology ideas and spirit as information during post-earthquake reconstruction. Scientific communication mainly acts as positive functions like cultural transmission, environmental monitoring (natural and social environment), social coordination and entertainment and functions with negative features. Communication of science & technology during Sichuan post-earthquake reconstruction has various forms, showing the features of regional area and Chinese, unity in diversity, interactive enhancement, all the people's concern, open report to public and transparency, interactive enhancement and so on. It not only plays the roles of cultural transmission, environmental monitoring, and the effective coordination of the important relationship during post-disaster reconstruction, but also provides entertainment and leisure functions, and even negative functions.It is easy to find the principles of the communication of science & technology, which is also the development tropism of the communication of science & technology after the communication of science & technology during post-earthquake reconstruction has been reconsidered and summarized .They mainly include the principle of media convergence and media transplant; science and technology information within ideology principle; promoting progress of science and technological innovation principle; systematic principle; ecological principle, including communicating scientific knowledge of ecology& environmental protection of life, the unity of disseminators ,scientific thought and the environment, eco-industrial dissemination of science and technology, ecological agriculture dissemination of science and technology, ecology of science and technology media ; easy–to- understand principles, including the popularity of communication language , the clarity of scientific knowledge explanation, closeness of scientific communication and public lifestyle, art form of science and technology communication.In order to improve the efficiency and the get better benefit, the following measures can be taken after the discussion of communication of science and technology during post-seismic disaster reconstruction. The accomplishment of disseminators of science and technology should be enhanced, including foster ring communicators to be talents of hybrid between science and technology , focusing on training of science and technology even art and philosophy for them , gaining the right of priority to learn new technological achievements and scientific and technical information .Enhance audience's scientific and technological training, including the improvement of universal coverage of science and technology , of ecology-oriented material, of levels of science & technology in countryside culture, and development of communication and interaction between the science and technology community , media, and audience. Optimize communication environment. Deal with the relationship between scientific communication and overall planning of urban and rural areas. Combine the development of scientific communication industry to Sichuan tourism culture. Use the negative information of science and technology dialectically.This thesis is divided into five parts. The first part introduces the topics of this thesis based on research status, purpose and meaning, ideas and methods; the second part brings forth the concept of Communication of Science & Technology during Post-earthquake Reconstruction, and discusses the connotation of the concept, and also discusses the functions of scientific and technological communication, as the theoretical basis of the following part. The third part is set to do status description, and has described the function and the present situation and characteristics of Communication of Science and Technology. The fourth part discusses the principles of Communication of Science and Technology during post-earthquake reconstruction, focusing on the popular and ecological principles. The fifth part comes to the inspiration and methods- how to develop Communication of Science and Technology during post-disaster reconstruction. Finally, conclusions are drawn and the full text is summarized.
