《中国季刊》编辑发给编委的邮件

2017年08月17日
Dear Editorial Board menbers,
各位编委：

I am writing to share with you some very concerning developments about access to the CQ in recent weeks.
我要和大家分享一下最近几周以来与访问阅读《中国季刊》有关的一些令人忧虑的动向。

Cambridge University Press has informed us that the GAPP (General Administration of Press and Publication [of China] ) has recently sent then via their importer a list of over 300 CQ articles and book reviews to be putted out from the CUP site in China. A similar request was made a few months ago regarding over a thousand e-books published by CUPS but journals had not been targeted until this list came through regarding the CQ. Most articles and reviews included in the list are about Tiananmen, the Cultural Revolution, Tibet, Xinjiang, Hong Kong, Taiwan etc, and they range from material published in the last months right back to the 1960s.
剑桥大学出版社通知我们，中国国家新闻出版广电总局通过进口商向他们提交了一份清单，要求将300多篇在本刊发表的论文和书评从剑桥大学出版社在中国的网站上撤下。几个月前，还曾收到过撤下剑桥大学出版社的1000余本电子书的要求，但在最近收到《中国季刊》的文章名单前，期刊一直都不受影响。名单上的文章大都和天安门、文革、西藏、新疆、香港和台湾等有关，从前几个月出版的到上世纪60年代的文章都有。

CUP inform us that they have blocked this material in China to avoid having their entire site shut down. According to CUPS this has already happened to several other publishers. However, none the other China studies journal editors I have contacted were aware of similar demands being made of their publishers regarding their journals.
剑桥大学出版社告诉我们，己经在中国网站上屏蔽了这些内容，以防止他们的网站被整体关停。据他们说，已有其他几家出版社遇到了同样的问题。不过我联系了其他几份中国研究期刊的编辑，他们均表示，并不了解他们所在的出版社是否收到过类似的要求。

Over the coming weeks we and CUP with issue a statement and develop a more detailed response and policy approach but wanted to make you aware the current situation. Our inquiries suggest that the CQ is the only major China studies journal to be subject to these measures but it is likely other journals with be affected in the near future.
在接下来的几个星期中，我们将和剑桥大学出版社发表一份声明，并制定更详细的回应和政策措施，但我想先让各位了解这个情况。根据我们掌握的信息，《中国季刊》目前是中国研究领域中唯一一份受到如此待遇的重要期刊，但其他期刊在未来也有可能会受到影响。

if any of you are currently in Chinas, it would be very helpful to know if you can access the CQ via the Cambridge Core website or via JSTOR, inside or outside an university.
如果你在中国，请告知是否能在大学校内和校外通过“剑桥核心”网站或者JSTOR访问本刊。

Many thanks and best wishes,
谢谢并祝好。
