“九·一八”后,为应对国难,舆论界出现了评议时政的热潮。他们以某一刊物为聚集地,形成了宽泛的舆论空间。在众多新创刊物中,以《独立评论》与《时代公论》为典型代表。舆论界尽管有着强烈的民主宪政的呼声,但随着时局的发展,对领袖权威的推崇逐渐达成了共识,赞成建立强力政府,主张实行集权政治。1935年,军事权威蒋介石兼任行政院院长,集权政治形成。然而,舆论空间与集权政治存在着一个二律背反的矛盾。如何保持一个自由的舆论空间,加强舆论对政府监督,是国民政府一直未能解决的难题。 After the September 18th, in order to cope with the national crisis, the media has seen the upsurge of commenting on current affairs. With a certain publication as their gathering place, they formed a broad space for public opinion. Among the many new publications, the “independent comment” and “public opinion of the times” are typical representatives. Despite the strong voice of democratic constitutional government, with the development of the current situation, consensus has gradually been reached on the esteem of the leader’s authority in favor of establishing a mighty government and advocating centralized politics. In 1935, Chiang Kai-shek, the military authority, served as president of the Executive Yuan and the formation of totalitarian politics. However, there is a paradoxical contradiction between media space and totalitarian politics. How to maintain a free space for public opinion and strengthen media supervision over the government are problems that the Kuomintang government has been unable to solve.
