Inaugural Meeting of International Consortium of China studies (ICCS)

April 20-21, 2014, 8:00-18:00

Langrun Garden, National School of Development, Peking University

Language: English

China has become the second largest economy in the world. Yet, there are numerous challenges ahead. Its future performance, no matter in which direction, will expansively impact the world economy. With a growing interest in understanding the Chinese economy, many countries have set up research centers focused on China studies. To facilitate academic and information exchange among the centers, many colleagues have expressed an interest in establishing a platform to facilitate academic exchanges in this burgeoning field.

In response to this need, NSD proposes to establish the International Consortium of China studies (ICCS). ICCS aims at organizing annual meetings for institutional members to exchange their research works in the field of China studies. While the field is multidisciplinary in nature, ICCS will focus on social sciences including economics, political science, sociology, law and international relations. On even years, the conference will be held in China, while on odd years, it will be rotated among institutional members in other counties.

The inaugural meeting of International Consortium of China Studies will be hold at National School of Development, Peking University on April 20-21, 2014. The founding institutional members are:
