The China Society Yearbooks have been restructured and renamed as Chinese Research Perspectives on Society since 2012.

The China Society Yearbook is the English version of the Blue Book of China’s Society(社会蓝皮书), a series of annual reports edited by sociologists from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS). With over 1.3 billion people and continuous economic growth, Chinese society is experiencing changes on an unprecedented scale. These yearbooks collect influential articles written by prominent sociologists in China that wrestle with social developments of the previous year and address predicted changes for the approaching year.
