Abstract
"Down with Confucianism!" "We want Mr. S and Mr. D!" These were some of the cries that could be heard in the streets of China on May 4, 1919. This date marked the high point of the student movement known as the May Fourth Movement. Following the humiliation at the Paris Peace Conference after the end of the First World War, Chinese students and intellectuals began to voice their opinions on where they thought their country should be headed. These members of society realized a change was needed in order for China to survive in the changing world. Confucianism, the secular philosophy which the Chinese had followed for centuries, was singled out as the main culprit for the current demise of China.
