JEARC - Aims and Scope
Aims
The Journal of East Asian Religions and Cultures (JEARC) is the official Chinese language journal of the Daesoon Academy of Sciences. This journal breaks new ground by being the only Chinese language journal of its kind dedicated to the study of East Asian religions and cultures.
Mission: JEARC serves as home to research on religious movements commonly associated with East Asia such as Buddhism, Daoism, and Confucianism; however, far beyond these, the category of religions in JEARC includes a wide plethora of groups ranging from indigenous religions, non-indigenous religions to East Asia, traditional religions, and new religions.
Furthermore, the category of cultures can refer to religious cultures, traditional cultures, counter-cultures, and even pop culture. As may be anticipated, JEARC provides a comprehensive academic platform for examining the rich tapestry of religious and cultural phenomena across East Asia.
Editorial Board:
The editorial board of JEARC consists of active scholars from many countries within East Asia as well as scholars of East Asia from countries outside of East Asia, ensuring diverse perspectives and international scholarly collaboration.
