After cultural revolution the policy of reform and opening up brought the change of academic studies in China. In this times, Chinese intellectuals tried to change the method of researches. Especially, they wanted to escape from the materialistic historical view and revolutionary view of history. History wasn't also exception in this reform. Recently, A study of conceptual history appeared as the new trend. This study is originated from the conceptual history study which is invented by Germany historian Reinhart Koselleck(1923~2006). Conceptual history applied 'linguistic turn' to History. In contemporary China, conceptual history doesn't simply mean the simple import of the theories or the fashion of the linguistic studies. It's purpose is the reinterpretation of chines modernity, the reform of the History in China etc. The leader of enlightenment movement in 1980s , Jin Guantao & Liu Qingfeng entered to the study of the history of ideas for overcoming the limitation of the intellectual history study which concentrates on some famous thinkers or their text.
