We were saddened to hear the news of Prof. Chung-ying Cheng's passing. Professor Cheng was professor at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa since July 1974, and served as the founding editor of the Journal of Chinese Philosophy, published with Brill. The journal commemorated its 50th anniversary in 2023, with four special issues featuring world-renowned Eastern and Western philosophers.

Our sincere condolences to family, friends, and colleagues.

The Journal of Chinese Philosophy is an anonymously peer-reviewed philosophical journal devoted to the study of Chinese philosophy and Chinese thought in all their phases and stages of development and articulation.
In our view there are three main efforts among recent studies of Chinese philosophy which merit specific mention. First, there is an attempt to make available important philosophical materials (in careful translation) from the history of Chinese philosophy, which constitute a contribution to the scholarly understanding of Chinese philosophy in its original form. Second, there is an attempt to make appropriate interpretations and expositions in Chinese philosophy, which constitute a contribution to the theoretical understanding of Chinese philosophy in its true claims. Third, there is an attempt to make comparative studies within a Chinese philosophical framework or in relation to schools of thought in the Western tradition, which constitutes a contribution to the critical understanding of Chinese philosophy and its values. All three efforts will be recognized and incorporated in this journal as fundamental ingredients.
To better articulate these efforts, we wish to emphasize in this journal the employment of critical and rigorous methodology of analysis, organization, and synthesis, for we believe that Chinese philosophy, including those parts which have been labeled mystical, can be intelligently examined, discussed, and communicated. We will thus aim at clear and cogent presentation of ideas, arguments, and conclusions. We will honor creative work in Chinese philosophy—for we ask imagination as well as scholarship in our approach to various aspects and dimensions of Chinese philosophy.
As a summary statement of the intended comprehensive scope of this journal, we shall mention four major historical periods and five major fields of discipline in Chinese philosophy. The four major historical periods are Classical Philosophy in Pre-Qin and Han Eras, Neo-Daoism and Chinese Buddhism, Neo-Confucianism, and Modern and Contemporary Chinese Philosophy since the nineteenth century. The five major fields of discipline are Chinese Logic and Scientific Thinking, Chinese Metaphysical Theories, Chinese Moral Philosophy and Philosophy of Religion, Chinese Art Theories and Aesthetics, and Chinese Social and Political Philosophies. We hope that a cross fertilization of these periods and fields will yield a still greater wealth of insight and ideas on nature, life, society, government, and human destiny.

This is a Diamond Open Access journal. Articles are published in Open Access at no cost to the author.
The primary objective of the Journal of Contemporary Chinese Philosophy (JCCP) is to provide a platform for philosophers worldwide to showcase their latest scholarly work on topics that transcend the boundaries of traditional and modern Chinese philosophy. Rather than limiting itself to a specific philosophical tradition, it will serve as a broad-scope venue dedicated to research from all philosophical traditions and areas, highlighting the contributions to contemporary philosophical debates from China that consider regional differences and cultural traditions while facilitating conversations between Chinese and international philosophers. Philosophers from different regions have their unique perspectives and concerns shaped by their cultural traditions and local knowledge. These differences can lead to diverse philosophical insights and debates. The Journal of Contemporary Chinese Philosophy aims to connect a network of philosophers working both inside and outside of China, and to present contemporary philosophical debates that resonate with the Chinese philosophical community. For instance, in response to recent focuses of Chinese philosophers on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, gene editing, and blockchain, the journal will set agendas in metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and political philosophy over these technological developments through dedicated special issues, actively inviting philosophers around the world to engage in conversations and debates. The Journal of Contemporary Chinese Philosophy is sponsored by Beijing Normal University and launched by the International Center for Philosophy from Beijing Normal University at Zhuhai. The editorial team includes philosophers from all across China and all around the world.
