Abstract

The May Fourth Movement was a powder keg on the verge of exploding for a long time. There were many factors that caused so much internal, cultural pressure. The most immediate factor was that there was filled with alternating promises and disappointments among the youth in the period that China making attempt to republicanism, and a radical change in ideology became a natural outcome. While the pressure for change had been building up for a long time, the spark that set off the entire moment came suddenly. After that, one of the core problems with the students of the May Fourth Movement was whether they had any real organization. What had previously been natural gathering of students was appropriated by leaders who imposed their ideology. This led to a change in the fundamental nature of student gatherings during the May Fourth Movement.
