History
The Society has published a Journal since 1961. It was published as the Journal of the Hong Kong Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society from 1963 until 2003, then changed to the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society Hong Kong Branch, and is now the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society Hong Kong and 香港皇家亞洲學會報.
About the Journal
The Journal is an international, English language journal specializing in studies of Hong Kong and South China in the fields of the humanities and social sciences produced by an Editorial Board and advised by an International Editorial Advisory Committee. We use a blind peer review process. All titles, abstracts and keywords are also translated into Chinese using traditional characters.
