Self description: "[trsl. from Chinese:] Issues and Ideology was established by Qin Hui [Prof. at Qinghua Univ., Inst. of History - ed.], Du Gangjian [State Academy of Administration - ed.] and Huang Zhong [China Economic Times - ed.], its general editor being Yang Zhizhu [China Youth College for Political Science - ed.]. It is an electronic journal for like-minded people, looking at Chinese problems from a liberal point of view. Its most characteristic feature is that it publishes unabridged manuscripts. [...] Articles submitted to us for publication [...] should adhere to the values of liberalism, egalitarianism, democracy, human rights, and the rule of law, and should show a certain amount of freshness of thought. [...]" Description: Established in Oct. 2000, this is a Chinese monthly with a rapidly increasing readership. Many of its editors and authors have published in print and on-line on current political, economic and demographic problems in China and are facing various degrees of trouble because of there unfearing analyisis (cf. reports in Taiwan Today News Network, 21 Jul 2000, Yazhou zhoukan 33 (20 Aug 2000), and elsewhere). Achive: All past issues are freely available. _______________________________________________________ With kind regards, Hanno Lecher ([log in to unmask]) INTERNET GUIDE FOR CHINA STUDIES -- editor http://www.sino.uni-heidelberg.de/igcs/ _______________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to: [log in to unmask] containing the following message: SIGNOFF IGCS-L
