The Chinese Journal of International Law The Chinese Journal of International Law is the leading forum for articles

An independent, peer-reviewed research journal edited primarily by scholars from mainland China, and published in association with the Chinese Society of International Law, Beijing, and Wuhan University Inst

7、itute of International Law, Wuhan, the Journal is a general international law journal with a focus on materials and viewpoints from and/or about China (about 60%of the space each year), other parts of Asia, and the broader developing world. The Chinese Journal of International Law Each issue of the

8、Journal normally contains: (1) Articles; (2) Brief Comments, Notes and Essays; (3) Courts and Tribunals; (4) Developments and History; (5) Practice and Documents; (6) Reviews; and (7) Scholars Community.The Chinese Journal of International Law The Chinese Journal of International Law is covered by t

The SSCI covers about 10 journals in international law; outside the USA, the European JIL and the Chinese JIL are the general journals of i

10、nternational law covered by this index.The Chinese Journal of International LawAs a journal of China studies: The Journal has China as the focus area, although, as we know, when we work in the field of international law, the whole world is our playground. The 60% goal: written by Chinese scholars or

11、 about China but written by non-Chinese scholars. Interdisciplinary: The SSCI places the Journal in two categories: (1) law; and (2) international relations. The Journal has a broadly conceived notion of “international law”, and has published materials about topics not strictly law but with an inter

12、national implication.The Chinese Journal of International Law In light of the above, the Journal has a broadly conceived notion of “international law”, and has published materials about topics not strictly law but with an international implication. For example, we have published papers on the green

In my v

14、iew, stripped to its essentials, area studies is a field through which scholars present, critique and generally intellectualize on the spirit of a focus area. China studies is thus a field through which scholars present, critique and generally intellectualize on the spirit of China. The Chinese Jour

This can even be seen in the covers of the J. I am going back to the picture I showed you earlier. Can anyone guess wher
