About the publisher

China Social Sciences Press focuses on publishing academic works in philosophy and the social sciences, with its books in this catalog centering on politics, finance and economics, and history. Representative titles include William Godwin's Enquiry Concerning Political Justice (2 volumes) and William Petty's Political Arithmetical, as well as The History of the Han Ethnic Group (9 volumes, covering history, culture, and customs) by Xu Jieshun and others. Related works by authors such as Zheng Boren, Qian Yaxu, Wang Hui, Ma Yan, and Xu Guilan are also included. Judging from the available catalog, the press balances translated works in political theory, classics of economic statistics, and multi-volume studies of ethnic history, emphasizing both scholarship and source materials. Owing to limited public information, other publishing features cannot yet be described in detail.
