The May 4th Movement is not only a patriotic movement, it not only represents a patriotic spirit, but also has a great influence on the upstream of China's cultural undertakings.
Before the May 4th Movement, the struggle on the cultural front in China was a struggle between the new bourgeois culture and the old feudal culture. Before the May 4th Movement, the disputes between schools and imperial examinations, between new learning and old learning, and between western learning and middle school all had this nature. At that time, the so-called school, new learning and western learning were basically the natural science and bourgeois social and political theory needed by bourgeois representatives.
This so-called "new learning" thought played a revolutionary role against China's feudal thought at that time and served the bourgeois democratic revolution in China in the old period. The weakness of China and the world bourgeoisie has entered the era of imperialism. After several rounds of fighting, it was defeated by the reactionary alliance of foreign imperialist slavery thought and China feudalism retro thought. In the era of imperialism, the old bourgeois democratic culture has been corrupt and incompetent, and its failure is inevitable.
Not since the May 4th Movement. After the May 4th Movement, a brand-new cultural force appeared in China, which is the * * * cultural thought produced by China * * producers, that is, the world outlook and social revolution theory produced by * * *.
The May 4th Movement took place in 19 19. The establishment of the China * * * production party and the real start of the workers' movement were in 192 1 year, both after the First World War and the October Revolution, that is, ethnic issues and colonial revolutionary movements changed the face of the past in the world.
This new force has made great progress in the fields of social science and literature and art, whether it is philosophy, economy, politics, military science, history, literature and art (whether it is drama, film, music, sculpture or painting).
