Global China Pulse: Experiment with different approaches and formats

Release: Inaugural issue of Global China Pulse (GCP), a new open access biannual 
journal dedicated to all facets of Global China 

This publication stems from The People’s Map of Global China (thepeoplesmap.net), an online map in which nongovernmental organisations (NGOs), journalists, trade unions, and academics come together to provide up-to-date information on various dimensions of Global China in their localities. Alongside the informational infrastructure the Map provides, with this journal, the organizers are creating a new space to publish content in a variety of styles and, possibly, experiment with different approaches and formats. 

GCP also draws from the experience that some editors have accrued over the years by editing the Made in China Journal (MIC, madeinchinajournal.com). Just like MIC, GCP rests on two pillars: the conviction that today more than ever it is necessary to bridge the gap between the scholarly community, civil society, and the general public; and the related belief that open access is necessary to ethically reappropriate academic research from commercial publishers who restrict the free circulation of ideas.
