Student Groups Of Zhejiang In The Late Qing Dynasty And Modern China

Numerous talents in Zhejiang have deep impact on Modern China, among whom are mostly students in the late Qing Dynasty. Study of the student groups of Zhejiang has historical significance and academic value in seeing clearly Modern China from a new perspective.Since 1840, under the influence of Europe and the United States, Zhejiang Province has changed a lot in politics, society, culture and psychology, breeding modern education soil. The birth of new schools, characterized by new learning and promoted by the reform ideas and the new political measures, produces the new student groups that are quite different from the scholar Tong-sheng. Because of the revolution in the college, there has been rapid development of new schools. Available historical data show that the late Qing Dynasty in Zhejiang education system is based on Hangzhou as the center, Shaoxing, Ningbo and Wenzhou a multi-wing pattern, and the local enlightened gentry have played a vital role in promoting.The student groups are primarily from Zhejiang Province schools and students studying in Japan. Those studying in Europe and the United States are fewer, but have a major impact. The emergence of new types of students, gathering and daily operation are typical in the light of having knowledge and anti-government ideology, subverting the tradition of the imperial scholars attached to the Government's paradigm. After the Zhejiang student strike and the rejecting Russia movement, the student groups have developed from the patriotic to the anti-ideological change, in which student strikes help to enhance their value of collectivism.Modern China in a certain sense is a state of students. The value of student groups is always shown by individual student. The growth of modern Chinese elite can be better traced if case studies are done, such as Chiang Fang-Zhen, Chiang Meng-lin, Chiang Kai-shek, Zhou Shu-ren, Ma Xu-lun and other students. It is a paradox that the cultivation of elite students in Zhejiang mainly rely on other provinces and foreign educational resources. While they try to reform the social structures, the students of Zhejiang in the Late Qing Dynasty get strained relationship with the government, and more schools means the majority of students detached from the mainstream of society. The value of student groups is reflected after they leave school. To obtain an in-depth exploration of Modern China's social stratification and social mobility from the perspective of the students, the quantitative and qualitative analysis of 154 students of Zhejiang in the late Qing Dynasty on the social access to vocational, family, geography, educational background and other prospects is made.This thesis focuses on historical material and method innovations and innovative thinking. In terms of historical materials, first-hand materials, the study's memoirs, interviews, school history materials, literature and historical materials, newspapers and archives of Qing Dynasty are used; In terms of the methods, sociology and quantitative analysis are drawn on to explore the quantitative and qualitative issues of the student groups of Zhejiang in the Late Qing Dynasty by establishing the 154 Zhejiang students analysis sample; In terms of the thinking, starting from the modern social analysis, macro-history view is introduced to fully express its views through the 300,000 words,67 charts, the informative material and data.The history of the students is a field paid little attention by academia and the history of modern students is still a relatively new research direction. Since there is no study of the history of the regional students, this thesis aims actively to construct a new framework for study of the history of students through the study of the student groups of Zhejiang in the Late Qing Dynasty.
