Research On News Governance In Early Republic Of China

"Early Republic of China" refers to the period from 1912 to 1928,which can be divided into three stages according to the regime change: Sun Yat-sen’s Nanjing Provisional Government,Yuan Shikai’s Government and Northern Warlords’ Government."News Governance" refers to the process of multi-party collaborative governance to promote the development of journalism,including government,industry,and social News Governance.The study of News Governance in the Early Republic of China can be cut in from these three aspects in combination with the three political power stages.From the perspective of government News Governance in the Early Republic of China,the idea of governance advocated in different periods are different,among which the News Governance ideas of Sun Yat-sen and Yuan Shikai are the most prominent.Sun Yat-sen advocates freedom of speech,while Yuan Shikai advocates despotism.At the beginning of the Republic of China,the government successively formulated and promulgated laws and regulations on News Governance,including Provisional Reporting Law of the Republic of China,Newspaper Regulations,Publication Law,Articles of Association of News and Telegraph,and so on.In terms of News Governance mechanism,the democratic cabinet system with the Senate as the core was adopted in Nanjing interim government,while the presidential cabinet system with the president as the main body was adopted in Yuan Shikai government.With the change of government in the Early Republic of China,the governance of political news showed a tortuous development trend,from equal confrontation between authority and regime to one-way monopoly of authority and then to full resistance of authority to regime.From the perspective of industry News Governance in the Early Republic of China,a large number of news professional groups,news academic groups and famous journalists or scholars such as Huang Yuansheng,Shao Piaoping,Xu Baohuang and Ge Gongzhen emerged in the Early Republic of China.These news organizations and journalists have not only promoted the responsibilities of journalists from "keeping records of news" to "focusing on truth" and "establishing credibility",but also made outstanding contributions in popularizing journalism education,cultivating journalism talents and promoting journalism development.From the perspective of social News Governance in the Early Republic of China,although the use of "correction books" and other forms in the Early Republic of China is of great significance in preventing false news and news misspellings,there are still many problems and dilemmas in social News Governance in the Early Republic of China.The main problems of social News Governance in the Early Republic of China are feedback lag,low supervision effectiveness,single supervision content and so on.In the Early Republic of China,the difficulties faced in social News Governance were mainly reflected in the low education popularization rate,the low threshold for starting publication and the arduous revolutionary road.Reflecting on the News Governance in the Early Republic of China and drawing lessons from it,in the new era background,to do a good job in News Governance and promote the modernization of News Governance system and governance capacity,we should at least start from the following aspects: First,implement the concept of governance by law and promote the legalization of News Governance;Second,develop journalism education and strengthen journalism vocational training;Third,improve the industry system and promote internal communication;Fourth,improve the supervision mode and build a multi-matrix supervision model.
