Yanhuang Chunqiu (Chinese: 炎黄春秋; pinyin: Yánhuáng Chūnqiū), sometimes translated as China Through the Ages, is a monthly journal in the People's Republic of China which was historically commonly identified as liberal and reformist. It was started in 1991, with the support of Xiao Ke, a liberal general of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.[1][2] Du Daozheng served as the founding director of the publisher.[3][4]

The journal was previously regarded as one of the most influential liberal journals in China, issuing some 200,000 copies per month.[3][5][6] It paused its operations in 2016, however, due to the crackdown from Xi Jinping's administration–even though Xi Zhongxun, the father of Xi Jinping, had publicly supported the publisher.[3][4][7][8][9] Following the pause, a new management team with pro-Xi editors was introduced, and continued to make publications.[6][9][10]
