Aims and Scope 

CASLAR is a bilingual, double peer-reviewed journal that publishes papers 
both in Chinese and English. It is the first bilingual journal (Chinese - English) 
published by a Western publisher. The journal will publish 3 papers in Chinese 
and 3 papers in English in each issue starting with 2 issues in 2012. Each 
paper in the journal will have a summary in both Chinese and English.
The journal will provide a forum for scholars interested in Chinese as a 
Second Language Research and focus on research on the acquisition, 
development and use of Chinese as a Second Language. It supports 
interaction and scholarly debate between researchers representing different 
subfields of linguistics with a focus on Chinese as a Second Language. The 
journal intends to be a forum for researchers who are looking for new tools 
and methods to investigate and better understand CSL.
We are especially interested in publishing articles and research papers that
-	address major issues of second language acquisition from the 
perspective of CSL,
-	explore the implications of CSL research for theoretical developments 
and practical applications,
-	focus on the acquisition, development and use of varieties of CSL,
-	study the nature of interaction between native speakers and non-native 
speakers of Chinese,
-	investigate how SLA theories can advance and develop better Chinese 
language teaching methodologies,
-	analyze the ways in which language is both shaped by culture and is 
the medium through which culture is created,
.       investigate how CSL research can support Chinese as a Second 
Language teaching.

No deadline for submissions. Submission is continuous.
