The book looks through five generations of Chinese students since the May Fourth Movement in 1919, explains how their ideas, actions, and impact ran like a thread through many governments and institutions that have shaped modern China, and indicates where China came from and what the country became.
In this book the authors offer their unique perspectives on the important roles Chinese students and intellectuals played in the shaping of the twentieth-century China. Their answers to these pivotal questions explore new nationalistic spirit, modern world-views, and willingness of self-sacrifice, which had attributed to the spontaneous actions of the students as a “New Culture” emerged during the May Fourth Movement. These articles show how China nurtured these spontaneous student movements, even though the Nationalist Party in the Republic of China and the Communist Party in the People’s Republic had exerted tight control over schools. Both governments established organizations as well as operations among students that effectively turned some of the student movements into a political instrument by the parties for their own agenda.

Xiaobing Li is professor and chair of the Department of History and Geography and the director of the Western Pacific Institute at the University of Central Oklahoma. Qiang Fang is professor of East Asian history at the University of Minnesota Duluth.
