Chinese Social Sciences Citation Index (CSSCI, Chinese: 中文社会科学引文索引) is a citation index program in China. It was developed by Nanjing University since 1997 and was established in 2000. It selects source journals from more than 2700 Chinese academic journals of social sciences. Now many leading universities and institutes use CSSCI as a basis for the evaluation of academic achievements.

“Exile as a mode of genius no longer exists; in place of Joyce we have the fragments of work appearing in Index on Censorship.”
