China today is poised to play a key role on the world stage, but in the early twentieth century the situation was very different. In this powerful new look at modern China, Rana Mitter goes back to a pivotal moment in Chinese history to uncover the origins of the painful transition frompre-modern to modern world. Mitter identifies May 4, 1919, as the defining moment of China's twentieth-century history. On that day, outrage over the Paris peace conference triggered a vast student protest that led in turn to "the May Fourth Movement." Just seven years before, the 2,000-year-old imperial system hadcollapsed. Now a new group of urban, modernizing thinkers began to reject Confucianism and traditional culture in general as hindrances in the fight against imperialism, warlordism, and the oppression of women and the poor. Forward-looking, individualistic, embracing youth, this "New Culturemovement" made a lasting impact on the critical decades that followed: the 1940s, with the war against Japan and the civil war between the Nationalist Party and the Communists; the 1960s, with the bizarre, seemingly anarchic world of Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution; and the 1980s, with the rise ofa semi-market economy against the backdrop of continued single-party rule and growing inequality.
Throughout each of these dramatically different eras, the May 4 themes persisted, from the insanity of the Cultural Revolution to the recent romance with space-age technology. China, Mitter concludes, still seems to be in search of a new narrative about what the country is, and what it should become. And May 4 remains a touchstone in that search.

评分作者對五四運動的描寫還算值得一讀,但是對21世紀中國的“開放”太樂觀了。不過也和作者寫書的年份有關。他要是今天來寫這書,必定會是另外一番論點。
评分不错的书,从革命 角度来看中国现代史。但是些地方比较牵强。

一直不明白为什么会把五四运动和“德先生”与“赛先生”联系起来。《苦涩的革命》(A Bitter Revolution)里面是这样描述90年前那天的情形的:大约3000个学生在天安门会合,聆听了抗议巴黎和会的演说。下午两点学生们听完了演说,举着标语向使馆区行进。当气氛变得更热...

评分This is a fascinating look at a pivotal time in the formation of the culture of modern China. The “Bitter Revolution” of the title is not the Communist Revolution of 1949 or the Cultural Revolution of the 1960s, but the revolution of ideas that climaxed i...
