Oxford India-China Studies

Oxford India—China Studies (previously The Oxford Series on India—China Studies) aims to develop an interdisciplinary corpus of research on historical and contemporary relations between India and China, as well as comparative studies of the two nations. It provides a multi-disciplinary site to bring together studies that go beyond the current obsession with strategic and geo-political, economic, or environmental issues and comparisons between India and China, thereby opening up spaces for a consolidated body of literature devoted to a holistic understanding of India—China relations from national, regional, and global perspectives. It will include broadly four categories of works: first, studies on India—China relations—economic, commercial, cultural, political—in historical and/or contemporary times; second, translations of key primary works from India and China, such as accounts and travelogues of Buddhist monks; third, translations of contemporary writings in the Chinese language into English, focusing on India—China relations; and lastly, works in progress that address research areas as yet unaddressed. Consolidating new scholarship that will enrich the field of India—China studies, this series aims to open up channels of greater dialogue between the two Asian giants.
