The China Quarterly (CQ)[1] is a British triple-anonymous peer-reviewed academic journal established in 1960[2] on contemporary China including Taiwan.[3]

It is considered one of the most important research journals about China in the world

editors-in-chief
are Timothy Hildebrandt (LSE), Jieyu Liu (SOAS) and Tim Pringle (SOAS).

History

The China Quarterly began as an offshoot of

School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London.[7]

The transfer followed the revelation that the CCF was funded by the Central Intelligence Agency through the Farfield Foundation. MacFarquhar said he did not know about the relationship and his editorship was not influenced by the CCF.[7] However, he admitted to knowingly publishing articles provided by the CIA and the British Foreign Office's covert propaganda unit, the Information Research Department, and giving the authors pseudonyms to keep their identities secret.[7] David Wilson succeeded MacFarquhar as editor in 1968.[7]

Overseas censorship of Chinese issues

In August 2017, Cambridge University Press (CUP), the publisher, confirmed it had removed access to more than 300 articles from readers in China following pressure from Chinese government. Cambridge University Press subsequently reversed its decision and restored the articles.

self-censor, however CUP stated that it was "troubled by the recent increase in requests of this nature" and was committed to academic freedom.[10]

The Guardian reported the censorship was part of a broader crack-down on dissent since Xi Jinping became the General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party in 2012.[10]
