Statements by some important Peking University intellectuals, such as University President Cai Yuanpei (蔡元培) and Professors Chen Duxiu (陈独秀), Hu Shi (胡适), Zhou Zuoren (周作人), etc. are discussed in detail. Special attention is given to those comments that stand out as against "majority opinion". Neither the Communists nor the Nationalists were key leaders during the first stage of the movement. It was the clash of core Chinese cultural values with those of Christianity and the Chinese desire to industrialize a country overwhelmed by the Western powers that were instrumental in the instigation of the Anti-Christian Movement.展开更多

This paper aims to analyze the differences between political economy and cultural studies, two primary but sometimes competing ways of examining media and communication, following a detailed description of their theoretical trajectory. Also, this paper suggests building a bridge connecting the two disciplines, the integration of which is essential to an adequate account of gender, race and social movement studies in addition to class analysis.展开更多
