CommonWealth Magazine (Chinese: 天下雜誌) is a Taiwanese magazine established in 1981, primarily focuses on finance, politics and humanities.
History[edit]
CommonWealth Magazine was founded by Yin Yu-peng, Charles Kao, and Wang Lixing in 1981, following the United States' de-recognition of Taiwan and the severance of diplomatic relations.[1] Yin decided to establish a news magazine to address Taiwan's international information deficit.[1][2] The magazine primarily focuses on finance, with additional coverage of politics, humanities, and environmental protection.[3] It is well known for its annual ranking of the top 2000 Taiwanese enterprises.[4] CommonWealth has generally been regarded as politically neutral, although occasional criticism has emerged regarding a perceived leaning towards the pan-blue coalition in the late 2010s.[2][5]
In 1986, Yin Yu-peng and Charles Kao had different visions for the company. Yu aimed to concentrate on domestic issues in Taiwan, while Kao intended to expand into the Chinese market.[6] As a result, CommonWealth was divided into three divisions: CommonWealth Magazine, chaired by Yu; Global Views - Commonwealth Publishing Group, led by Kao; and Global Views Monthly, with Wang Lixing as the chief editor.[6] In 2021, on the 40th anniversary of CommonWealth, Yu announced his retirement and appointed six executives, including Wu Yin-Chuen, the current president of the company, to co-lead the organization.[1] The magazine has also received several Golden Tripod awards, including Best Digital Publication and Best Financial and Current Affairs Magazine in the 42nd and 45th Golden Tripods.[7][8]
