Coles A Study of China's English-language Scholarly Journals in the HSS: Coping with Global Knowledge Asymmetries at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
This book presents a systematic analysis on English-medium scholarly journals in the humanities and social sciences (HSS) in mainland China. It examines how these journals seek to improve the international visibility of Chinese scholarship and counterbalance Anglo-American hegemony in global knowledge creation and circulation. This book consists of two parts: 1) a national landscape of the journals, and 2) three case studies of journals in different subject areas. The three case studies involve the journals Frontiers of Education in China (FEDC), Frontiers of History in China (FHC), and Chinese Journal of International Politics (CJIP). Data were also collected from documents and semi-structured interviews with 32 journal editors from 27 journals. Additionally, content analysis and citation analysis of the three case-study journals were conducted to explore the specific strategies and struggles of each journal.
The intended readership of this book mainly includes three groups. The first are scholars in the research fields of international scholarly relations, internationalization of humanities and social sciences (HSS), and Chinese higher education. Researchers who conduct studies on geopolitics of knowledge production and HSS development in China would also find this book relevant and helpful. The second group are scholars in the research fields of information science and library science, as well as practitioners in academic publishing: authors, editors, and publishers of academic journals, particularly those interested in academic publishing in China. The third group are students at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels exploring geopolitics in HSS research, higher education, and HSS development in China. Students who are interested in research methods such as content analysis and citation analysis would also find this book helpful.
