238A Study on the Formation of the Modern Family in 1920s China: On the ideal image and reality of child rearing in intellectual familiesIn the 1920s, during the period of the Five Four New Cultural Movements, it was suggested that the modern family should be built by overthrowing the traditional Chinese family system.In the 1920s, there was a lot of discussion about improving the family and, as part of this, improving family education was often advocated.In addition, with the trend of women’s liberation, women were required to play not only a domestic role but also a social role. To clarify how the acceptance of Western culture and the demand for women’s dual roles affected the modernization of child rearing in modern Chinese families, this paper attempts to examine the ideal image and reality of child rearing in intellectual families in China in the 1920s.As a result of my research, first, in the modern family in the 1920s, women’s responsibility in raising children was emphasized, and it was extremely emphasized to raise children with scientific knowledge by women who had received modern school education. The responsibility of fathers to raise their children was also raised, and the construction of equal parent-child relationships was advocated in response to criticism of the traditional Chinese parent-child relationship of “strict father and loving mother.” And the intellectuals of the 1920s, who actively accepted Western culture, maintained their national identity by having the next generation read Chinese classics in their family education.This paper confirms that in the modern Chinese family of the 1920s, the “democracy” and “science” tendencies that were growing during the Five Four New Cultural Movements and the idea of child-centrism that came from the West were embodied in the family education of intellectual families. It is also clear that in the 1920s, when the conflict between “new” and “old” cultures was at its most acute, intellectuals criticized traditional Chinese culture, but also passed it on to their children.Yilei ZHU
