The China Studies Review (CSR) is a publication of the China Studies Program at the Johns Hopkins University Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS). CSR publishes interdisciplinary work by graduate students conducting research on China, including history, political science, economics, policy, and area studies projects. Beginning as a collection of working papers by a group of students in SAIS China Studies, CSR has evolved to become a unique, interdisciplinary compendium of original graduate-level research on China.
