The China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations (CICIR ; ) is among China’s largest, oldest and most influential civilian research institutes for international studies. Located in Beijing, the Institute is affiliated with China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), and overseen by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.〔David Shambaugh, “China’s International Relations Think Tanks: Evolving Structure and Process,” The China Quarterly, Vol 171 (Sept 2002) pp 575-596.〕〔Michael D. Swaine, "The role of the Chinese military in national security policymaking," National Defense Research Institute.〕 CICIR has a staff of approximately 400, including 150 senior research fellows. It consists of 11 departments with different regional and functional concentrations, as well as two research divisions focusing on the Korean Peninsula and Central Asia, and eight research centers.〔(China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations ), accessed 5 July 2011.〕 CICIR publishes the ''Contemporary International Relations (Xiandai Guoji Guanxi) ''journal''.'' ==History== David Shambaugh traces the origins of the China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations to the Communist Party’s intelligence operations during the Chinese civil war and Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945). Specifically, these early intelligence operations targeted the U.S. Dixie Mission and the Soviet presence in Communist Party bases in Yan’an during the 1940s.〔 In 1964, then-Premier Zhou Enlai ordered the creation of several colleges and university departments to focus on international affairs.〔 A number of ministries, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Public Security, established their own think tanks and research organizations under the decree.〔Gerald Chan, “International Studies in China: An Annotated Bibliography,” (New York: Nova Science Publishers, 1998).〕 CICIR was established in 1965.〔Xuanli Liao, “Chinese Foreign Policy Think Tanks and China’s Policy Towards Japan,” (Hong Kong: The Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2006).〕 At that time, it fell under the Foreign Affairs Leading Group of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party, and served a number of senior Communist Party officials.〔 CICIR was the only international relations institute or university in China that did not close during the tumultuous years of the Cultural Revolution. In 1980, amidst Deng Xiaoping’s reforms and openings to the outside world, CICIR was designated an “open” institution, and was authorized to engage with foreigners as a means of enhancing intelligence collection.〔 It began publishing the journal ''Xiandai Guoji Guanxi'' (Contemporary International Relations) in 1981. The journal became quarterly in 1986, and has been published monthly since 1993.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
