Year Zero (Khmer: ឆ្នាំសូន្យ, Chhnăm Sony [cʰnam soun]) is an idea put into practice by Pol Pot in Democratic Kampuchea that all culture and traditions within a society must be completely destroyed or discarded and that a new revolutionary culture must replace it starting from scratch. In this sense, all of the history of a nation or a people before Year Zero would be largely deemed irrelevant, because it would ideally be purged and replaced from the ground up. John Pilger, Year Zero: The Silent Death of Cambodia (1979)

  • 零年（高棉語：ឆ្នាំសូន្យ、Chhnăm Sony [cʰnam soun]），是波爾布特在民主柬埔寨實踐的一個想法，即必須徹底摧毀或拋棄柬埔寨社會中的所有文化和傳統，並必須以新的革命文化取而代之它，從頭開始。 1975年4月17日，紅色高棉在接管柬埔寨後宣布當天是“零年”的第一天，以示柬埔寨歷史的重生。這術語源於法國大革命後雅各賓黨人把1792年9月21日訂為法國共和曆元年。零年實際上是紅色高棉試圖抹去歷史並將柬埔寨社會重置為第零年，消除過去的任何痕跡。 (zh)

  • The new rulers of Cambodia call 1975 "Year Zero", the dawn of an age in which there will be no families, no sentiment, no expressions of love or grief, no medicines, no hospitals, no schools, no books, no learning, no holidays, no music, no song, no post, no money – only work and death. (en)

John Pilger, Year Zero: The Silent Death of Cambodia (1979) The first day of "year Zero" was declared by the Khmer Rouge on 17 April 1975 upon their takeover of Cambodia in order to signify a rebirth of Cambodian history. Adopting the term as an analogy to the "Year One" of the French Revolutionary Calendar, Year Zero was effectually an attempt by the Khmer Rouge to erase history and reset Cambodian society to a zeroth year, removing any vestiges of the past.
