JBACS is a peer-reviewed e-journal publishing articles and reviews in the discipline areas covered by BACS: Arts / Humanities and Social Sciences on traditional and modern China. This is a service provided by BACS for the benefit of the academic community: there are no charges to readers or contributors. Our editorial board comprises leading academics from the UK Chinese Studies community and all submissions are subjected to rigorous double blind review by leading researchers from around the world. We aim to turn around submissions within a short space of time, thus making JBACS one of the fastest routes to high (REF) quality, open-access publication in Chinese Studies.

If you are interested in submitting a research paper for peer review, please see the guidelines at http://bacsuk.org.uk/journal. We also welcome short essays and research notes.
