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.

Singapore written by Carl A. Trocki and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2006-03-23 with Political Science categories.
This volume examines Singapore’s culture of control, exploring the city-state’s colonial heritage as well as the forces that have helped to mould its current social landscape. Taking a comparative approach, Trocki demonstrates the links between Singapore’s colonial past and independent present, focusing on the development of indigenous social and political movements. In particular, the book examines the efforts of Lee Yew Kuan, leader of the People’s Action Party from 1959 until 1990, to produce major economic and social transformation. Trocki discusses how Singapore became a workers paradise, but what the city gained in material advancement it paid for in intellectual and cultural sterility. Based on the latest research, Singapore addresses the question of control in one of the most prosperous and dynamic economies in the world, providing a compelling history of post-colonial Singapore.

Arif Dirlik's latest offering is a revisionist perspective on Chinese radicalism in the twentieth century. He argues that the history of anarchism is indispensable to understanding crucial themes in Chinese radicalism. And anarchism is particularly significant now as a source of democratic ideals within the history of the socialist movement in China. Dirlik draws on the most recent scholarship and on materials available only in the last decade to compile the first comprehensive history of his subject available in a Western language. He emphasizes the anarchist contribution to revolutionary discourse and elucidates this theme through detailed analysis of both anarchist polemics and social practice. The changing circumstances of the Chinese revolution provide the immediate context, but throughout his writing the author views Chinese anarchism in relation to anarchism worldwide.

Beginning in 2005 as a small electoral reform initiative, the Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections, known as Bersih, became the most prominent social movement in Malaysia. Based on participant observation approach and first-hand interviews with key actors, this book examines how Bersih became a movement that aggregated the collective grievance of Malaysians and brought Malaysian sociopolitical activism to a new level. This book makes a major contribution to the scholarly work on social movement theories in the Southeast Asian context and to the growing literature on social movements and democratization.
