The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) is a Chinese state research institute and think tank. It is a ministry-level institution under the State Council of the People's Republic of China.
History
The predecessor of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences was the Department of Philosophy and Social Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, established in 1955.[1]
The CASS was established in May 1977 based on splitting the Department of Philosophy and Social Sciences from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, with the aim of promoting the development of philosophy and social sciences, under the instruction of Deng Xiaoping.[2]: 86–87 The first president was Hu Qiaomu.[2]: 87
In 1979, CASS Vice President Huan Xiang led the first Chinese delegation of social scientists to travel to the United States.[2]: 88
In 2022, Gao Xiang was appointed Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary and president of CASS.[3]
Structure
The CASS is a ministry-level institution under the State Council.[4][5][6][7] As of 2012[update], CASS has over 3,200 resident scholars.[8][needs update] As of November 2020, the CASS has 6 university departments, 42 research institutes, 6 functional departments, 5 directly affiliated institutions, and 3 directly affiliated companies.[9] Of its functional departments, five are focused on research.[10]
CASS houses the Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, which later became the University of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.[11][non-primary source needed]
The Institute of Taiwan Studies at CASS is under the control of the Fifteenth Bureau of the Ministry of State Security.[12][13][14] The ITS has been headed by Zhu Weidong since 2023 after its previous head, Yang Mingjie, left to lead the China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations.[14]
The Dictionary Editing Office of the Institute of Linguistics edits Xiandai Hanyu Cidian.[15] The China Social Sciences Press was established in June 1978 under the auspices of the CASS,[16] and has published over 8,000 books since its inception.[17]
Activities
Every quarter, CASS hosts a high-level seminar to which it invites officials from other developing countries to discuss topics including governance in China, poverty alleviation, and socio-economic development.[18]
According to Chen Daoyin, a former professor at the Shanghai University of Political Science and Law, CASS "is not so much an academic institution but a body to formulate party ideology to support the leadership."[3]

The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued its first policy related to academic ethics on May 30th, 2018, together with the State Council...the new policy clarified that a high-level management system for scientific research integrity with clear responsibilities and efficient coordination should be established, requiring that the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) be responsible for the overall coordination and guidance of scientific research integrity in the fields of natural sciences, philosophy, and social sciences.
