About the Journal
The Chinggisid History and Heritage Journal is a peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to the study of the Mongol Empire and the Chinggisid world in its full historical, cultural, and geographic breadth. The journal provides an interdisciplinary forum for original, source-based scholarship on the political, social, economic, religious, and cultural histories of Chinggisid polities and their legacies across Inner Asia, Eurasia, and beyond.
Published by the Chinggis Khaan & Mongol Empire Research Center, the journal seeks to serve as a central platform for rigorous international scholarship on the Mongol Empire, while strengthening institutional and scholarly collaboration across regions and disciplines.
The journal brings together historians, archaeologists, art historians, manuscript specialists, anthropologists, and heritage scholars working within diverse academic traditions. It aims to foster dialogue between Inner Asian studies and broader Eurasian and global historiographies, encouraging methodological rigor, critical engagement with primary sources, and comparative and transregional approaches.
A core objective of The Chinggisid History and Heritage Journal is to enhance the visibility and integration of scholarship produced within and about Inner Asia, including research engaging with Mongolian, Persian, Chinese, Turkic, and other source traditions. The journal actively supports multilingual and cross-disciplinary perspectives and seeks to bridge long-standing divides between regional scholarly communities.
In addition to historical inquiry, the journal welcomes contributions that explore the afterlives of the Chinggisid world, including questions of memory, identity, heritage governance, and the contemporary reinterpretation of the Mongol past. Through this broad yet focused scope, The Chinggisid History and Heritage Journal aims to establish itself as a leading international venue for innovative and authoritative research on the Mongol Empire and its enduring global significance.
