DOWNLOAD EBOOK"This bibliography is a companion piece to the microfilm project of same title (on 28 reels) which contains the full text of the titles listed in the bibliography. The translations were performed by linguists under contract with the United States Joint Publications Research Service (JPRS), a federal agency established in 1957 to service the translation needs of various government research units. Materials to be translated are selected by Government scientists and researchers under contract. The majority of JPRS translations are in the social sciences. The focus is on economic, political and social developments in the communist world and in other foreign areas. Upon the initiative of the Social Science Research Council a group of sixty subscribing universities began to receive the JPRS translations on China in July-August 1960. The translations issued before this date were, however, not included in this or in any other subscription-distribution program. Since that material is of equal importance for studies on China, the present microfilm project of the JPRS reports included in this bibliography intends to fill this gap in the China field in providing these translations for the researcher."--Foreword
