| Summary/Abstract |
With this issue, China Report commences its fiftieth year of publication. It seems a good time to look back over our long journey, to take stock, and also to look ahead at what our goals and priorities would be in the coming years. The China Report began its 'long march' in December 1964 as a bi-monthly, through the joint efforts of Giri Deshingkar and CRM Rao. Giri had just returned to India after completing a Bachelor of Arts in Chinese from the School of Oriental and African Studies, London, while CRM Rao, who had left a job in the corporate sector to commence work with the Radical Humanist, a journal started by the late M.N. Roy, was closely associated with a group of scholars in the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies, Delhi. It cost all of `1/- to buy a copy of China Report in those days, and for the princely sum of `5/- one could avail six copies annually
