7th Global China Dialogue: Reforming Global Governance, 2021
The 7th Global China Dialogue (GCD VII), with the theme ‘Reforming Global Governance’, will be held on 10th December 2021. This is the planned culmination of a series that began in 2014 with the aim of bringing together scholars and practitioners from China and the rest of the world to exchange their insights into the
problems that challenge human existence on our planet today. Our aim is to yield proposals for the reform of global governance based on these insights.
We consider global governance in the broadest sense to cover the worldwide ordering of society to enable the peoples of the world to meet existential challenges, and to give the chance for human beings everywhere to lead fulfilling lives. China’s ‘community of a shared future for mankind’ also provided the world with a similar vision. Our panels of discussants from China and other countries will be invited to examine four areas of strategic significance for realizing these or, indeed, any visions for the governance of human society at this time of crisis.

Chinese New Year Greeting Newsletter / GCA Annual Report (2019–2020)
Dear colleagues and friends,
The Year of the Rat has been a year of institutional reform: Global China Press and Global China Institute (GCI) have become Global Century Press and Global China Academy (GCA), respectively. For reasons of efficiency, we are applying to convert the existing charity into a Foundation CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation). CCPN Global engages in work on China in comparative perspective, mainly via a global network and a peer-reviewed journal, for which it serves as a resource. The name of the journal, hitherto known as the Journal of China in Comparative Perspective (JCCP), is changing to Journal of China in Global and Comparative Perspectives (JCGCP), to reflect its widening scope.
Our 2019-2020 annual report discusses significant organizational changes, including renaming our press and journal to better reflect our global and comparative perspective. Our report underscores our dedication to Chinese studies within a global context, highlighting our academic and social projects, publications, and our role as a knowledge-based think tank. We also detail our active participation in global dialogues and our ongoing efforts to expand and enrich our global network.

A Symposium on China’s Development Path in the New Era from Multiple Perspectives
A symposium entitled ‘China’s Development Path in the New Era from Multiple Perspectives’ was held successfully at the University of Cambridge on January 14th, 2020. It aimed to offer an understanding of the dynamics, opportunities and challenges that are happening in China from different perspectives, focusing on a collection of works, such as Zhejiang, China: A New Vision for Development. Nearly 50 scholars and experts from China, France and the United Kingdom, representatives of overseas Chinese and media representatives attended the symposium.
The symposium was organised by Cypress Book Company (UK) Limited and Sinolingua London Limited, co-organised by the Global Century Press and the Cambridge Chinese Community Centre.
Mr. Xiaocheng Xie, Managing Director of Cypress Book Company (UK) Limited and Ms. Wenjing Chai, Managing Director of Sinolingua London Limited made welcome speeches at the opening, sharing their thoughts on China’s development path from their own experience and expressing the hope that the symposium would enable a deeper understanding of China.
Ms. Ingrid Cranfield, President of Global Century Press and Ms. Jinzhao Li, Founder of Cambridge China Centre, also spoke briefly.
Three keynote speakers shared their thoughts and researches on China issues. Dr. Joël Ruet, President of The Bridge Tank and an expert on China’s economy and foreign policy, spoke about the comprehensively deepening reform in China. He thought that the collection of work had provided a vivid intellectual chronicle of China’s reforming theoretical system in the new era.
Based on corpora of Zhejiang, China: A New Vision for Development’s Chinese and English editions, Prof. Xiangqun Chang FRSA, President of Global China Academy, analysed the theoretical and practical application of governance system and China’s capacity for governance at the provincial level.
Dr. Geng Zhi, lecturer at the Confucius Institute at the Queen Mary University of London, spoke about the great contribution of language and cultural exchange to the establishment of a community with a shared future for mankind, and how China’s development path is practised in the new era.
During the Q & A session, the participants actively interacted with the speakers.
The ‘China book around the world’ exhibition was on show in Cambridge during the symposium, displaying titles relating to China’s economy, politics, culture, education and social sciences. The exhibition gained great attention. Everyone expressed their willingness to continue participating in such events in the future.

社科汉语研究工作坊 (2017)
随着中国对国际社会影响的日益扩大，除了理解中国的社会文化之外， 如何理解中国政府的政策对全球社会的重塑和治理非常重要。对此，“社科汉语”将会提供直接的帮助。“社科汉语”是“社会科学汉语”简称，它是特定用途汉语（CSP）的一个分支，如“科技汉语”或“商务汉语”。全球中国学术院根据来自我们双语网站用户的需求，我们正在开发一个基于我们的研究工作和双语出版物的课程补充材料。社科汉语也将取材于我们全球中国学术院的《中国比较研究》期刊、全球中国对话的素材和全球出版社出版的著述，它们是了解中国社会和中国人的重要途径。开发社科汉语的目的在于提高有关中国的基本知识和提高学生和学者有关社科问题的中英文语言阅读和翻译的技能。
我们现在的工作体现在以下领域：
I. 阅读: 社科汉语中高级阅读材料取之于《全球中国比较研究》将发表的文章并在“社科汉语”栏目中发表.
1. 中级社科汉语阅读
2. 高级社科汉语阅读
II. 英汉双向翻译: 本项工作主要是为了维护何更新我们的双语网站和博客
III. 中文多媒体资源: 我们将不断更新此网页的内容
IV. 英语中的中文词语
全球中国学术院通过各种方式推动社科汉语研究，除了上述提及的通过《中国比较研究》，致力于用英汉双语发表国内外学者在理论、方法论和问题导向的实证研究的成果，在国内外学者之间作深度沟通。同时，环球世纪出版社 (GCP) 是世界上第一个致力于出版英汉双语的社会科学与人文科学著作的出版公司，专注于出版中国比较研究的著述，还包括在全球语境下对世界和人类知识研究的中华视野，以及对中国研究的非中华视野。此外，中国社会科学全球化系列丛书，全球中国智库在知识全球化的框架下，从不同方面全面推介华人学者的学术思想和知识，并且通过顾问咨询和公共参与等方式，参与型塑全球社会。全球中国对话系列论坛有时也组织社科汉语相关的活动，如本次社科汉语工作坊。
