Abstract:Zhang Dongsun was a pivotal figure of New Culture Movement. When he entered into the intellectual circle in the year of 1918, his standpoint was to “nurture new youth”, hopefully creating an association of the youth, representing the culture to rebuild the society and supervise the government,so as to bring the Constitution to the normal path. Actually his standpoint was the reflection to the setbacks when Republican China was established, especially to the issues of “how to cohere the whole society” and “relying on which group”. With the breakout of May Fourth Movement, Zhang Dongsun,through observing,participating and directing the students’ movement gradually became more radical and eventually formed his agenda of “total solution” to overthrow the situation of China then by the method of class competition. This means that his hope is up to students, workers, farmers rather than the youth only, and his emphasize is transformed from the association of the youth to the alliance of different classes. In his project, “individual reform” is the preparation of the “ total solution”.
