In 1977 the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences was formed, with 21 institutes covering a variety of areas. The fundamental principles guiding social science research conducted by this institute & other Chinese agencies include integration of theory & practice & the encouragement of diverse viewpoints. While this second policy was suppressed during the Cultural Revolution, it is now once again being supported. W. H. Stoddard.
