The 22nd International Congress of Historical Sciences
The 22nd ICHS, which will be held in Jinan, Shandong, the birthplace of Confucius and Mencius, is the first time for the congress to be held in Asia. After the successfully-held Beijing Olympics, it will again be an opportunity to show the long history and deep culture of China, and its recent economic and cultural booming to the world. It is a stage to show the history and cultures from all over the world and for the communication and research of them. In our preparations, we will set up an international coordination platform for historical research and a cyber-platform to show the history and culture of each country; and there will be a series of activities for the communication of history and different cultures, such as global historical and cultural weeks. There will be 79 topics for the 22nd ICHS. During the term of the congress, participants will fully enjoy the fascination of the history as well as the culture of hospitable Shandong – a famous tourist destination blessed with splendid cultural heritage.
