The Economist

Japanese: エコノミスト - えこのみすと(英語表記)The Economist
The Economist

Published every Saturday in the UK, it is the world's oldest and most authoritative economic magazine. It was first published in 1843. It covers a wide range of topics, not just economics, but also politics, society, commerce, and agriculture. Its tone is somewhat conservative, but it is politically independent, insightful, and objective. It has a circulation of about one million copies (2004), and has a significant influence on intellectuals not only in the UK but all over the world. Following this model, Japan also launched the Tokyo Keizai Zasshi in 1879 (Meiji 12), and the weekly magazine of the same name, The Economist, in 1923 (Taisho 12).

Japanese:

イギリスで毎週土曜日に発行される、世界でもっとも古く、権威のある経済誌。1843年創刊。単に経済だけではなく、政治、社会、商業、農業と扱われる内容は幅広い。その論調はやや保守的だが、政治的には独立していて見識が高く、客観的である。発行部数は約100万部(2004)で、イギリスだけではなく世界中の識者に与える影響力は小さくない。この雑誌を範として日本でも1879年(明治12)『東京経済雑誌』や、1923年(大正12)毎日新聞社から同名の週刊誌『エコノミスト』などが創刊された。
