The 1905 anti-American boycott was a new type of popular movement. This study argues that the movement was the result of long-term, accumulative, and multi-facet developments in urban political culture which directly led to urban political activism in the form of urban nationalism.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The 1905 anti-American boycott was a new type of popular movement. This study argues that the movement was the result of long-term, accumulative, and multi-facet developments in urban political culture which directly led to urban political activism in the form of urban nationalism.
520 $a Significant developments in early twentieth century China included commercialization of mass communication, rise of urban entertainment, and politicization of new urban social groups. It was in these long-term accumulative developments not in a few shocking effects of military defeats and other national humiliations that this author tries to find the roots of Chinese urban nationalism.
520 $a In the early twentieth century, Chinese-exclusion acts by the United States provided a perfect issue for Chinese urbanites to express themselves politically. The exclusion acts seemed to be unjust and at odds with both Western ideals and Confucian humanism which banned all and only Chinese immigrants. The fact that the Qing government was too weak to obtain equal rights for its people provided an opportunity for the urbanites to show their strength. To do so they decided to boycott American goods. As a means, the boycott seemed to be perfect because it was peaceful and by the people.
520 $a The boycott might have been more effective and successful if big merchants had not betrayed the movement half-way through. The eventual failure of the boycott exposed the difficulty of the sovereign status boycotters assigned to the "public" (gong) vis-a-vis the private and official spheres. Merchants wanted to assert their rights as individuals to trade freely with whoever they wished. The Qing government stepped in to protect this claim as a sovereign government would do. In the final analysis, although we can see from the 1905 boycott elements of an emerging public sphere in China, there was a long way for the Chinese people to go in order to build a mutual civic society.
