Abstract | In the 1920's-30's, Shanghai's secret societies were a strange offspring of traditional society. They resuscitated and developed fully in socially transforming Shanghai. The development of the Shanghai secret society was intimately connected with these factors, as old and new things coexisted in Shanghai society, population control and social adaptation failed, and the secret society and regime needed one another. Changing with the times was the most remarkable characteristic of Shanghai secret societies in the new period, giving them a special space. However, the accretion of certain capitalist characteristics did not change the societies' subversive essence in resisting elite society and modern irrationality. |
