Beijing Review (Chinese: 北京周報; pinyin: Běijīng Zhōubào; Wade–Giles: Pei-ching Yu-pao), previously Peking Review, is China's only national news magazine in English, published by the Chinese Communist Party-owned China International Publishing Group. In 2006 it claimed a per-issue circulation of 70,000 and distribution "throughout China and 150 countries and regions worldwide." Founded in March 1958 as the weekly Peking Review, it was an important tool for the Chinese government to communicate to the rest of world. The first issue included an editor's note explaining that the magazine was meant to "provide timely, accurate, first-hand information (truncated) on economic, political and cultural developments in China, and her relations with the rest of the world." The U.S. Postal Service initially restricted distribution of the magazine but the U.S. Supreme Court overturned this policy in Lamont v. Postmaster General. In October 2020, the United States Department of State designated Beijing Review as a "foreign mission" of China. An important time period covering the entire Cultural Revolution through the death of Chairman Mao, the policies of Deng Xiaoping, and the establishment of modern China.

The name change of this journal under President Deng presaged a new direction. From being a revolutionary magazine, presenting the ideas and aspirations of a young (and relatively weak) Socialist state struggling along the road to the construction of Communism, it was now displaying its open statement of aims of an outright capitalist and imperialist state – with global ambitions. From the very beginning the new Socialist state had to face many obstacles. There was opposition from within and without the country, from within and without the Party. Those who might have played an important role in the past in the fight for liberation were not necessarily the ones who were needed to build a radically new society. All revolutions bring with it old baggage from the past, but some leaders found it more difficult than others to throw it away and start fresh.
