Historians have long portrayed the May Fourth Movement as a seminal period in Chinese history. By the early 1920s, that movement increased in intensity until it reached the overseas Chinese communities in Southeast Asia. In Singapore, newspapers such as the Le Bao (Lat Po) and the Nanyang Shang Bao (Nanyang Siang Pau) became the primary forums for discussing May Fourth ideas. Recently, historians have thoroughly altered accepted interpretation of the May Fourth Movement. Rather than describing it as a radical rupture with China's past, they highlight continuities that transcend the May Fourth era, linking it socially and intellectually with both the late Qing and with the later Republican and Communist eras. Others have suggested that the May Fourth Movement was a "powerful fiction" appropriated by intellectual and political elites for their own gain. This paper looks at Singapore's version of the May Fourth Movement in light of these revisionist interpretations. It demonstrates that May Fourth was indeed a momentous time for Singapore's Chinese residents. At the same time, however, Singapore's intellectuals manipulated May Fourth ideas to enhance their status relative to their rivals. In the process, they confronted their own relationship with their homeland and altered accepted definitions of the nation. For these reasons, Singapore's May Fourth Movement sheds much light on the function of overseas print capitalism in the formation of Chinese nationalism. Furthermore, it suggests that further research is necessary to understand the link between nationalism and overseas newspapers.

Classical-style poetry in modern China and other Sinitic-speaking localities is attracting greater attention with the recent upsurge in academic revision of modern Chinese literary history. Using the concept of cultural transplantation, this monograph attempts to illustrate the uniqueness, compatibility, and adaptability of classical Chinese poetry in colonial Singapore as well as its sustained connections with literary tradition and homeland. It demonstrates how the reading of classical Chinese poetry can better our understanding of Singapore’s political, social, and cultural history, deepen knowledge of the transregional relationship between China and Nanyang, and fine-tune, redress, and enrich our perception of Singapore Chinese literature, Sinophone literature, the Chinese diaspora, and global Chinese identity.

In Liberalism Disavowed, Chua Beng Huat examines the rejection of Western-style liberalism in Singapore and the way the People's Action Party has forged an independent non-Western ideology. This book explains the evolution of this communitarian ideology, with focus on three areas: public housing, multiracialism and state capitalism, each of which poses different challenges to liberal approaches. With the passing of the first Prime Minister, Lee Kuan Yew and the end of the Cold War, the party is facing greater challenges from an educated populace that demands greater voice. This has led to liberalization of the cultural sphere, greater responsiveness and shifts in political rhetoric, but all without disrupting the continuing hegemony of the PAP in government.
