Abstract: The development of private newspaper industry in modern Shaanxi is late because of its remote geographical environment and the closed political and cultural atmosphere. During the period of the Republic of China, the private newspaper industry in Shaanxi entered into the stage of rapid development and became the core base of public opinion in northwest China. Although it had to cease because of the restriction of local political, economic, geographical and official newspaper factors, the development of Shaanxi private newspaper industry objectively promoted the social progress and the development of modern Shaanxi and even the whole northwest region.

Key words: Shaanxi, the Republic of China, private newspaper industry

摘要： 近代陕西因其偏远的地理环境和封闭的政治文化氛围，民营报业的发展较沿海地区起步晚。民国时期的陕西民营报业步入较快的发展阶段，成为西北地区重要的舆论核心基地。虽然陕西民营报业的发展受当地政治、经济、地域及官方报刊因素的制约而多以停刊告终，但它客观上推动了近代陕西乃至整个西北地区的社会进步与发展。
