The term "New Youth" refers to a cultural and intellectual movement that emerged in early 20th century China. It was primarily associated with the magazine New Youth, founded by Chen Duxiu in 1915. This movement aimed to promote modern ideas, science, and democracy, challenging traditional Confucian values and advocating for social reform. The "New Youth" movement played a significant role in the May Fourth Movement of 1919, which sought to address national issues and promote nationalism. It inspired a generation of young intellectuals and activists, including notable figures like Lu Xun, who contributed to literature and social criticism, shaping modern Chinese thought.
