ABOUT MAPPING CHINA
ABOUT MAPPING CHINA
Mapping China was founded in 2016 as an academic network connecting Masters and Doctoral students as well as young professionals working on China with a social science approach to foster exchange and knowledge among the new generation of China watchers. Although founded, based and registered as a non-profit (a so-called e.V.) in Germany, Mapping China now connects students and young professionals from all over the world.
Mapping China offers students and young professionals a publication platform for their own academic work on China in order to engage in an academic discussion within a wider audience early on in their academic career. Kindly note that Mapping China publishes work in both German and English and does not translate any original work.
ABOUT OUR JOURNAL
The Mapping China Journal (MCJ) is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal publishing the work of students and early career researchers who analyse contemporary China from a social science perspective.
In December 2017 the inaugural issue of MCJ was published focusing on integration processes and challenges linked to Chinese engagement in three regions of the world: Asia-Pacific, Africa, and the EU. The second issue of the MCJ was published December 2018 and explores China’s domestic politics in the era of Xi Jinping. The numerous submissions to this project reflect the eagerness of a new generation of young China scholars to participate in the dynamic discourse on contemporary China.
