Is there anyone who can understand the development of all the top journals in the field of Chinese philosophy and social sciences? The answer is estimated to be, no.
Is there a book that can tell you behind the scenes of the top journals in the field of Chinese philosophy and social sciences? The answer is, yes.
It's a little book.
It is said to be small because it is small, two hundred pages, more than two hundred thousand words, holding it in your hand, a thin book, far less than those tomes with millions of words that look so thick and weighty.
It's not just a small book.
The authors of this book are all from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the highest academic institution for chinese philosophical and social science research, and they have a common identity - academic journal editor. Behind everyone is the "national team" of academic journals in the field of Chinese philosophy and social sciences, and it is precisely because of their existence that the "golden signboard" of academic journals of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences has been created, and the largest, most influential and highest level philosophical and social science journals in the mainland have been constructed.
The content of this book all revolves around the "golden signboard" of the academic journals of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences: its historical evolution and development context, the principles of review and the planning of topic selection, academic standards and text norms, the "war of words and words" of editors and editors-in-chief, the "love and killing" of authors and external judges, and the "sympathy and pity" of editors and readers... What you know, what you don't know, what you want to know, is all in this book.
The origin of this book comes from May 9, 2021, when General Secretary Xi Jinping replied to all the editorial staff of Wenshizhe magazine. Immediately after that, on May 18, the Central Propaganda Department, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Science and Technology jointly issued the Opinions on Promoting the Prosperity and Development of Academic Journals, which reflects the great importance attached by the party and the state to academic journals.
So far, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences has 92 kinds of academic journals, constituting the largest, most influential and highest level of philosophy and social science journals in China, and these journals are also regarded as the "golden signboard" of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Nowadays, there are more than 500 academic journal editors of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and this book invites academic editors who have won the "Excellent Academic Journal Editing Award" of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in 2020, and also invited nearly 20 senior journal editors in the Academy to collect a total of 52 "editor's voices" manuscripts, which together constitute this small book created by the people who created the "golden signboard" of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
Some articles tell the feelings and experiences of editors engaged in editing work:
As an editor, we must be careful, patient, and more responsible; as an editor, we must be thinkers, scholars, and activists; as an editor, we must have a straight heart, a clear heart, and a quiet heart; as an editor, we must be willing to make a wedding dress for others.
Some articles tell the story of editors dealing with readers, authors, and reviewers:
Must-read letters before the censorship meeting - the "proofreading journal" of loyal readers; the transformation of identity from loyal readers to review experts; and continuous improvement of their academic level in the process of communicating with authors.
Some articles tell the story of the development of the journal:
The older generation of scholars and editors Lu Shuxiang, Ding Shusheng and Yang Leyun have the concept of running the journal and their sounds and smiles; the development process from "nameless small periodicals" to "head" publications is very arduous but colorful; from traditional publications to digital publications, keep pace with the times, and integrate into the trend of social development and industry agitation.
Some articles describe the editorial staff's thinking about running a good journal:
Only by maintaining the reverence for scholarship can we assume the heavy responsibility of academic editors in the new era; constantly improve their academic quality, run high-quality academic journals well, and grow together with journals; editors need to constantly improve themselves, and they also need more understanding and respect.
Through the content of this book, scholars can understand how journal editors deal with academic articles; readers can understand how academic journals are produced; people can feel that the construction of academic journals of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences is inseparable from the efforts and efforts of a generation of agency publishers; management departments can feel the hard work of journal editors, understand their thoughts, thoughts, and expectations, and create a good career development environment for academic journal editors.
Comrade Gao Peiyong, vice president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and member of the party group, gladly wrote the preface to this book and praised the academic editors of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences as follows:
This is a group of dedicated people
This is a group of people who are diligent in learning
This is a group of people who are willing to give
This is a group of people who are good at learning
With this book, I would like to pay tribute to all the "bridal dressers".

The title "Academic Editor" awe-inspiring —
When the editor has years,
So far, it is rare to have "Samadhi".

It is also a plain but clean and clean ink plum,
Although it cannot be reached, the heart yearns for it.

Effectively promote academic exchange and development.
