Many domestic and foreign researches on contemporary Chinese socialism analyzed from the perspectives of women's liberation generally consent to see the Mao era as a failed attempt by contrasting recent decades to the pre-reform period. The women`s studies scholars in mainland China have been putting much effort to theorize the PRC`s experiences of women`s emancipation, but consider it to have been unsuccessful up to now. This paper aims to overcome that Chinese and western researchers of women`s studies approach the relation between Chinese revolutions and women`s liberation over the last 100 years in terms of success or failure, as well as discover how women`s emancipation in China could be characterized regarding historicism and constructionism. I propose not only three key words to analyze the women`s liberation in China, but also the frame of understanding a century of female emancipation including acceptance of traditional heritage and the Kuomintang's liberation of women. In brief, production(work), reproduction(childbirth), and migration seem to have the biggest impact on the lives of Chinese women since the May Fourth Movement. I focus on these three key words to analyze the relation between revolution and gender by dividing modern Chinese history into four periods-the April Fourth Movement, soviet, the PRC`s foundation, and the reform and opening up.
