Deutsche Shanghai Zeitung Explained

The Deutsche Shanghai Zeitung (pronounced as /de/; ; DSZ), later Der Ostasiatische Lloyd, was a German language newspaper published in Shanghai, China. That publication was associated with the Nazi Party.^[1]

History

The newspaper was established on 27 September 1932.^[2] The paper was owned and edited by Max Simon-Eberhard, a former army captain. Hartmut Walravens, author of "German Influence on the Press in China," said that the newspaper did not do well initially, but after Paul Huldermann, a professional journalist, took control, the performance improved.^[3] The newspaper was renamed and reorganized in January 1936 so it could benefit from the reputation of the previous Ostasiatischer Lloyd.^[3]
