Journal of China in Global and Comparative Perspectives (JCGCP) publishes original multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary comparative research on China on a range of topics in the social and human sciences. It encourages debate, co-operation and co-authorship on the same issue or theme from different disciplines (including politics, economics, international relations, history, sociology, anthropology, pedagogy, law, media, cultural Studies, social psychology, and methodology). Its aim is to bring out the best in scholarship, transcending traditional academic boundaries in an innovative manner.

JCGCP is not simply about China – there are already several excellent journals on China – but about global and comparative viewpoints looking at China as a player in broader patterns of development, ideas, movements, networks and systems. Comparison includes using China as a case study to examine a generally applicable theory, or drawing analytical conclusions from comparative data about China and some other country or context. The comparison may be regional or global, historical or contemporary. It may also involve a comparison of perceptions: China’s perceptions of others, and others’ perceptions of China, in the context of China’s encounters with the outside world in political, economic, military and cultural senses.

We also consider articles that draw contrasts between China and other countries, Chinese people and non-Chinese people, or academic debates and dialogues between Chinese and non-Chinese, Chinese perspectives of the world or human knowledge, and non-Chinese perspectives of China in a global context.

In addition to research articles, research reports and commentaries, JCGCP also publishes periodic symposia on selected topics, in-depth review articles on particular areas of scholarship and reviews of books of unusual quality and significance for the study of China in global and comparative perspectives. Certain issues of the journal may focus on a particular subject, and we welcome suggestions for themes.

JCGCP is a strictly non-partisan publication and does not support or discriminate against any political, ideological or religious viewpoint. In accordance with standard academic practice, articles submitted for publication in JCGCP are subjected to a rigorous process of blind peer review. Although conceived as an academic journal, the editorial policy of JCGCP is to ensure articles that appear herein are of interest beyond the academic arena to policymakers, as well as readers with a general interest in China-related themes.

《全球中国比较研究》期刊（JCGCP），发表原创的多学科和跨学科有全球视野的或关于中国的比较研究，涵盖社会科学和人文科学的广泛主题。它鼓励来自不同学科（包括政治学，经济学，国际关系，历史，社会学，人类学，教育学、法学、传媒、文化研究、社会心理学和方法论）对同一问题或主题的辩论，合作和共同作者。它的目标是以创新的方式超越传统的学术界限，展现最优秀的学术成果。

《全球中国比较研究》期刊不仅仅关注中国，因为学术界已经有许多优秀的中国相关期刊，本刊的特点在于以全球和比较双重视野看待中国，将中国视为更广泛发展模式、观念、运动、网络和系统的一部分。比较包括以中国为案例来检验通用理论，或者从关于中国与其他国家或背景的比较数据中得出分析结论。比较可能是区域的或全球的，历史的或当代的，也可能涉及到对中国和他人的看法：中国对他人的看法，以及他人在政治、经济、军事和文化等方面对中国的看法。

我们也考虑发表那些以中国与非中国，中国人与非中国人，或中国学者与非中国学者之间的学术辩论和对话，以及中国对全球或人类知识的视角，还有非中国人在全球背景下对中国进行比较研究的文章。

除了研究论文、研究报告和评论， 《全球中国比较研究》期刊还定期举办选定主题的研讨会，发表关于特定学术领域的深度评论文章，以及有全球和比较视野的有关中国的特殊质量和重要性的书籍的评论。本刊的某些期刊可能会聚焦于特定主题，欢迎对主题提供建议。

《全球中国比较研究》期刊是一份严格的非党派刊物，不支持或歧视任何政治、意识形态或宗教观点。提交给本刊的文章都要依据标准的学术实践，经过严格的盲审同行评议过程。本刊虽然为学术期刊，但其编辑方针是确保在这里发表的文章不仅对学术界有兴趣，而且对政策制定者以及对中国相关主题有一般兴趣的读者也有吸引力。
