New World Press (NWP) (Chinese: 新世界出版社; pinyin: Xīn Shìjiè Chūbǎnshè) is a Beijing-based Chinese publishing house. New World Press has published more than 5000 titles, publishing exclusively in foreign languages including English before 1997, and exclusively in Chinese after 2002.
New World Press was established in 1966 as a subsidiary of Foreign Languages Press (FLP), and became independent from FLP in 1986, though both were owned by China International Publishing Group (CIPG). In 2001, a major decision by CIPG resulted in some publishers like Chinese Literature Press merging with NWP, and NWP published only Chinese books thereafter.
As of September 2024[update], the Media and Journalism Research Center evaluated the parent company of New World Press, the China International Communications Group, to be "State Controlled Media" under its State Media Matrix.[1][2]
