  Hu Shi | Encyclopedia of Modern Asia
Born in Jixi, Anhui Province, Hu Shi was China's leading liberal scholar and educator of his time.
Hu laid an important foundation for the 1919 May 4th Movement with an essay published in 1917 in the Chinese journal Xin Qing Nian (New Youth), which advocated the avoidance of the classical language and the adoption of the vernacular in literature.
Hu studied at Cornell (1910–1914) and Columbia (1915–1917, awarded a Ph.D. in 1927), served as China's ambassador to the United States (1938–1942), and resided in the United States from 1949 to 1958.

 Hu Shih and the Chinese Renaissance   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
This is an exploration first of Hu Shi as a liberal philosopher, and secondly of the inherent problems posed by the application of liberal philosophy to China in the early twentieth century.
The narrative begins with Hu Shi's childhood in a fatherless house and the contradictory influences of his mother, who was at once a "traditional" Chinese woman and a supporter of a "modern" education for her son.
Hu himself failed, in Grieder's analysis, in his elitist conflation of his own understanding of "freedom" (that of individual thought) with the desires of the people for freedom from hunger and oppression.

 Chinese Human Rights Reader Entry Summary   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Liberals within the Chinese League for the Protection of Civil Rights (on which see the previous text), such as Hu Shi, believed that the League should work within the existing political system, while radicals, such as Song Qingling, believed that this was a futile task and that the GMD was corrupt beyond reform.
Hu Shi reacted strongly to this appeal, as the article translated here reveals, both because he felt that the conditions described did not match his findings, and also because he felt that asking for the “unconditional” release of all political prisoners was asking too much of the government.
The furthest Hu Shi was willing to go on this issue was to seek guarantees that political prisoners were not treated cruely and that legal safeguards were upheld.

Hu Shi (1891–1962) was one of the leading intellectuals of the twentieth century.
With this essay in the Xinyue magazine, though, Hu launched a brief human rights movement that included both detailed criticisms of the practices of the GMD government and theoretical discussions of human rights (for an example of the latter, see especially the next text, by Luo Longji).
Hu’s main argument in this essay is that genuine protection of human rights requires a legal foundation that applies impartially to all, including members of the military and the government.

Though the media reported that little was known about Mr Hu's past, at least one part of his life is well documented: The period between 1988 and 1992 when the "core leader of the Forth Generation" was Tibet's party secretary.
When the elder Hu tried to introduce reforms in China in the early 1980s, he was violently opposed by some of his colleagues in the Politburo.
As Hu Yaobang progressively lost to the most conservative elements led by Mr Li Peng and Mr Qiao Shi, Mr Hu Jintao was quick to realign himself, primarily with Mr Qiao Shi, in charge of internal security, who became the younger Hu's new mentor.
