Since its inception, Journal of Chinese Philosophy has been an important platform for international academic circles to study Chinese philosophy. The journal is dedicated to publishing high-quality scholarly articles covering all historical periods and schools of thought in Chinese philosophy, from ancient Confucianism, Taoism and Legalism to modern Neo-Confucianism. It focuses not only on traditional philosophical issues, such as ethics, epistemology, and metaphysics, but also on emerging issues in contemporary Chinese philosophy, such as environmental ethics, social justice, and cultural identity.

The academic contribution of the journal lies not only in its in-depth exploration of Chinese philosophy, but also in its contribution to cross-cultural communication and comparative philosophy. By publishing articles with an international perspective, the journal promotes the exchange and dialogue of philosophical ideas in different cultural contexts. It encourages scholars to examine Chinese philosophy from a comparative perspective and to explore its place and role in the global philosophical dialogue.
