In the fourth chapter of this article that about new thinking of youth movement. American youth counterculture movement has been the past half century, there are many research about the movement.I am lucky enough to stand on the shoulders of predecessors, and must be have some new thinking. Vast majority of movement in the history that related to the social structure change. But this time is different from others that is a global upheaval. In the past time, the movement directed at political system or systems, but his time, mainly face to cultural level which keynote of love, justice, freedom and peace. The purpose of sport is that Puritan bound and the imperialist policy of aggression of the United States. Nearly half a century, the movement of globalization has never stop. No matter” occupy Wall Street” in American or a youth "sunflower" movement in Taiwan last year, also has the cultural meanings. So, this is a thought-provoking question for how to understand and guided youth movement. And counterculture acceptance by the mainstream culture, which from individual to common progress is also a generation of self-salvation and thought washing.
