''The New Republic'' is a liberal American magazine of commentary on politics and the arts published since 1914, with major influence on American political and cultural thinking. Founded in 1914 by major leaders of the Progressive Movement it attempted to find a balance between a progressivism focused on humanitarianism and moral passion, and on the other hand sought a basis in scientific analysis of social issues. It supported American entry into World War One, but discarded much of its faith in the possibility of a scientific liberalism. After the 1980s it incorporated elements of conservatism.〔David Seideman, ''The New Republic: A Voice of Modern Liberalism'' (1988)〕 After undergoing a change of ownership and a crisis in 2014 that saw the resignation of many of its editors and writers, its publication was briefly suspended. ==Current situation== As of early 2015 the magazine has a printed version, a website and a tablet app.〔 〕 In December 2014, Chris Hughes, owner and editor-in-chief of the magazine from 2012, forced out the editor, Franklin Foer; Guy Vidra, the CEO, announced that the magazine would be reduced from twenty to ten issues a year and would move to New York, where it would be reinvented as a “vertically integrated digital-media company.” 〔http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/inside-collapse-new-republic〕 That provoked a major crisis within the publication. The magazine’s literary editor, Leon Wieseltier; executive editors Rachel Morris and Greg Veis; nine of the magazine’s eleven active senior writers; the legal-affairs editor; the digital-media editor; six culture writers and editors and thirty-six out of thirty-eight contributing editors, resigned or asked to have their names removed from the magazine’s masthead. In all, two-thirds of the names on the editorial masthead were gone. 〔 That forced the magazine to suspend the December 2014 edition. The company announced that it would go back to print twenty issues a year. The magazine is now reshaping itself under editor Gabriel Snyder. Previously a weekly for most of its history, immediately before suspension it was published 10 times per year with a circulation of approximately 50,000.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The New Republic」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
