中文摘要
1919年5月4日，學生的愛國行動和巨大的民意壓力，迫使當時在巴黎參加和會的北洋政府外長陸徵祥拒簽和約，以抵制日本帝國主義對中國的蠶食和侵淩，並藉此抗議西方列強對中國的不公不義。但在國難方殷、殖民主義列強壓迫日亟的逆境下，為了救亡圖存，激進的反傳統主義者和西化派，卻未能細緻的疏理中西文化傳統的優、劣因素，反而走上激進、偏頗的革命道路，尋求以解放論視角來理解民主。本文將針對五四時代的民主自由觀進行探討，並著重分析當前公民社會的發展困境與自由民主面臨的現實困境，以掌握五四課題的當代面貌及挑戰。
英文摘要
The May Fourth Movement of 1919 was one of the most important student and popular movements in modern Chinese history. The promotion of democracy and science are two of the main stated objectives associated with this milestone event. However, it was very difficult to pursue these two goals, especially to establish constitutionalism and liberal democracy, given the Chinese political ecosystem. In this article, we investigate the role of civil society and its interactions with political society in Taiwan. We will analyze its significance in strengthening and weakening democratic transitions during the past four decades. We also note how one of the main objectives of the May Fourth Movement remains unrealized.
