All submissions to the Journal are blind-reviewed. At least two specialists, in addition to the editor, will read and evaluate each submission. Normally authors may expect to hear from the editor about the suitability of their submissions for publication in the Journal within two to three months. The publisher holds the copyright of the articles published in the Journal. All submissions should be sent to: the Committee of the journal by email:  ijofsws@gmail.com. 

 

The Nordic Forum of Sino-Western Studies is a university-related research platform based in Helsinki. We aim at encouraging Sino-Western dialogue, research, and enhancement of scholarly activities, e.g., conferences, student & scholar exchange, academic essay prize, and publication. As part of its publication programs, the Forum publishes a new Chinese-English bilingual journal to promote Sino-Western Studies internationally.

 

Our journal is published twice a year in June and December simultaneously in both printed and online versions. We follow international editorial conventions, which include informative journal titles, fully descriptive article titles and abstracts, key words, complete bibliographic information for all cited references, and full address information for every author. We publish full text either in English or in Chinese, and in the later case the bibliographic information is also offered in English. Our journal is peer-reviewed, and cited references are in the Roman alphabet. We emphasize international diversity among the journal’s contributing authors, editors, and editorial advisory board members.

 

One of the most unique features of our journal is its obvious aim in developing the Sino-Western Studies (especially related to sinology and theology) as an academic discipline. The five columns of the journal offer an interdisciplinary forum/scope to give the greatest encouragement for the study of humanities, theology, Chinese national studies, and practical theology. The focus also covers Sino-Western views on church and society, the relation between Chinese and Western classics and the Bible, church history, and comparative religious and cultural studies.  

 

Since theology has not to this day been an academic discipline in the official Chinese system of education, the experienced know-how of international scholars will be able through this journal to contribute an important input to Chinese academia. Meanwhile, a reflection on China and a dialogue with Chinese scholars will so enrich international humanistic and theological researches so as to yield a global influence.

 

In the digital and internet age, our journal is different from others especially in providing scholars in the field to publish their scholarly findings in both printed and online versions, voluntarily to let readers to view and quote the abstracts of articles free of charge. And we also offer readers an access to the full text of articles either in PDF online format or in printed version with a reasonable payment. More details can be found at the Copyright and Full texts sections.

 

In addition to the five columns, submissions on book reviews and academic reports are also welcome.
