Association of Chinese Political Studies
(ACPS), formerly
Chinese Scholars of
 Political Science and International Studies,
is a non-profit, non-political organization for scholarly and
professional activities. ACPS was founded in 1986 in the United States to promote academic exchange
among Chinese scholars and American scholars of China studies. In
1995, the organization changed its name to Association of Chinese
Political Studies, and since then the organization is for all who study Chinese politics.
Currently the organization has over 600 members from various parts
of the world. Eighty percent of them are male and 20% of them are
female.
ACPS is a related organization of American
Political Science Association and International
Studies Association. It sponsors panels in APSA's annual
meetings. ACPS holds an annual conference on China each year. The most
recent meeting was
hosted and sponsored by the Center for US-China Policy Studies at
San Francisco State University between July 14-15, 2007. ACPS also organizes or co-organizes international
symposia and research trips. The most recent symposium that ACPS
co-sponsored with Renmin University was held between June 10-11, 2006 in Beijing, China.
ACPS publishes scholarly
books, newsletters, and a refereed academic journal
-- Journal
of Chinese Political Science.
