Rising background

First, the political aspect:

1. Imperialism has stepped up its aggression.

2. The warlord rule is getting darker and darker, so we must continue to oppose imperialism and feudalism.

2. Economy: During World War I, China's national capitalism further developed. The fundamental reason is that the national bourgeoisie has grown stronger and stepped onto the political stage, strongly demanding democratic politics and developing capitalism.

Third, ideological and cultural aspects:

1. After the Revolution of 1911, western enlightenment ideas were further spread, and the concept of democracy and harmony was deeply rooted in people's hearts.

2. Beiyang warlord (Yuan Shikai restored the monarchy) carried out the counter-current of respecting Confucius and restoring ancient ways (democracy and thought are incompatible with respecting Confucius and restoring ancient ways).

4. Class: The bourgeoisie strongly demands democratic politics in China.

The main content of the new culture movement is the concrete practical activities carried out by "four advocating and four opposing". In the early stage, its essence was the struggle between the new bourgeois culture and the old feudal culture. In the later period, advanced intellectuals vigorously promoted Marxism as the theme.

One: there must be something to say;

Second, do not imitate the ancients;

Three: grammar must be emphasized;

Four: don't groan without illness;

Five: don't go to bad tune;

Six words: no code;

Seven: don't talk about confrontation;

Eight sayings: don't avoid common words and idioms.
