Secrets, Lies, and Atomic Spies. Agnes Smedley, a triple agent who worked for the Soviets, the Chinese Communists, and the Indian nationalists, was one of the most prolific female spies of the 20th century.
Unlike most agents of the day, who were reasonably erudite, Smedley lacked a formal education and came from a poor, undistinguished family. As a young adult Smedley attempted to make up for her minimal education by attending lectures and classes at universities as often as she could. On each campus, she threw herself in with a sophisticated intellectual and international crowd, and the connections she made eventually led to her life as a spy. At New York University circa 1912, Smedley befriended a group of students from India who were agitators in their country's nationalist movement.
She soon joined the Friends of Freedom for India, a secretive organization closely monitored by the U.S. government. Though Smedley eventually moved away from New York, the Indian nationalist cause remained close to her heart. An Error Occurred Setting Your User Cookie.

He was an extraordinary student and won a scholarship to attend the American University in Beirut to study medicine. What they found in Shanghai was not what they expected. Conditions were bad all over China, but they focused their attention on some of the foreign owned companies, feeling that there would be more that they could do there than with local factories and farms. Hatem's plan to return to America was put on hold. He traveled there with Edgar Snow and Snow's young translator.
When Ma Haide (George Hatem) arrived in Yan'an, he immediately set up to deliver medical care. In 1949, Ma Haide became a Chinese citizen. New Culture Movement. The New Culture Movement (simplified Chinese: 新文化运动; traditional Chinese: 新文化運動; pinyin: Xīn Wénhuà Yùndòng) of the mid 1910s and 1920s sprang from the disillusionment with traditional Chinese culture following the failure of the Chinese Republic, founded in 1912 to address China’s problems.
Scholars like Chen Duxiu, Cai Yuanpei, Li Dazhao, Lu Xun, Zhou Zuoren, and Hu Shih, had classical educations but began to lead a revolt against Confucianism. They called for the creation of a new Chinese culture based on global and western standards, especially democracy and science.

These demonstrations sparked national protests and marked the upsurge of Chinese nationalism, a shift towards political mobilization and away from cultural activities, and a move towards a populist base rather than intellectual elites.
Many political and social leaders of the next decades emerged at this time. May Fourth Movement (1919) May Fourth Movement, 1976 At the end of the First World War, in 1918, China was convinced it would be able to reclaim the territories occupied by the Germans in present-day Shandong Province.

Chinese students protest the Treaty of Versailles (the May Fourth Incident), 1919. Post-WWI China was fraught with political turbulence and social unrest. The Qing Dynasty was overthrown in 1911 and the Republic of China was instated in its place, ending thousands of years of imperial rule in the country and generating a host of new streams of intellectual and political thought. However, warlords still ruled strong throughout many of the provinces, fueling a chaotic and backwards politics that an emerging intelligentsia sought to change. Relations with Japan were an important part of this political landscape; in January 1915, Japan presented a list of demands to Chinese President Yuan Shih-k’ai, known as the “Twenty-one Demands,” seeking to assert and expand Japanese control over various regions of China that the country had interest in.
Among these regions was Shantung Province, a stipulation that garnered much opposition within China, and that would go on to be included in the May Fourth campaign’s objectives. THE MAY 4TH MOVEMENT.
