May Fourth Movement  

Définition(s)

  • News that the Paris Peace Conference would not return the Shandong territories to China but instead transfer the German interests to Japan sparked student demonstrations in Peking on May 4, 1919. Although the march from Tiananmen Square was orderly when it began, the day ended with violence—Chinese foreign minister Cao Rulin's residence was sacked; the minister to Japan, Zhang Zongxiang, was beaten up; fighting broke out between students and police, resulting in one student death; and 32 students were arrested.
