编辑活动与社会控制的关系密不可分。编辑所处的社会环境和编辑活动所表现出来的能动性决定了编辑活动的受制性。编辑活动作为社会活动形式之一 ,必然要受到社会控制的影响。社会控制对编辑活动的影响表现出政治控制、经济控制、文化控制等几种形态。不仅仅只是社会控制对编辑活动产生影响 ,编辑活动对政治、经济、文化还产生着反作用 ,二者并不是孤立的 ,它们之间存在着双向互动性。 The relationship between editorial activities and social control are inseparable. The dynamism shown by the editorial social environment and editing activities determines the compulsiveness of editorial activities. Editing activities, as one of the forms of social activities, are bound to be influenced by social control. The influence of social control on editorial activities shows several forms such as political control, economic control and cultural control. Not only is social control influencing editorial activities, but editorial activities also have a negative effect on politics, economy and culture. Both are not isolated and there are two-way interactions between them.
