Features: The center of Qing history studies is in China. It is undeniable that excellent works on Qing history should be written by Chinese historians. However, this does not exclude the need to understand and selectively absorb the positive achievements of foreign scholars' research. It is also essential to introduce and analyze academic trends, cutting-edge issues, hot topics, and significant results in overseas Qing history studies in a timely manner, as well as to strengthen exchanges between Qing history scholars at home and abroad. Based on these fundamental understandings, the National Committee for the Compilation of the History of the Qing Dynasty has been approved by the National Committee for the Overall Compilation of the History of the Qing Dynasty to compile and publish the Qing History Translation Series. This series will, depending on specific circumstances, introduce the latest developments in overseas Qing history studies to the domestic audience through columns such as "Special Studies," "Selected Works and Documents," "Academic Reviews," "Interviews with Experts," "Overseas Features," "Theoretical Debates," "Abstracts of Arguments," "Book Reviews," and others. The Qing History Translation Series is a shared platform for all Qing history researchers and enthusiasts. Let us work together to nurture it with our hard efforts, enabling it to make greater contributions to the compilation of Qing history.
