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.
Famous quotes containing the words social, sciences and/or index:
“The true use of Shakespeare or of Cervantes, of Homer or of Dante, of Chaucer or of Rabelais, is to augment one’s own growing inner self.... The mind’s dialogue with itself is not primarily a social reality. All that the Western Canon can bring one is the proper use of one’s own solitude, that solitude whose final form is one’s confrontation with one’s own mortality.”
—Harold Bloom (b. 1930)
“Letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend is the policy for promoting the progress of the arts and the sciences and a flourishing culture in our land.”
—Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
“Exile as a mode of genius no longer exists; in place of Joyce we have the fragments of work appearing in Index on Censorship.”
—Nadine Gordimer (b. 1923)
