The emergence of French Center for Research on Contemporary China (CEFC) in 1992, one of the 27 overseas research centers under the direction of French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, shows that the French government is eager to understand contemporary China. Because of the location of CEFC, it can provide a headquarter for researchers from France or European countries to spread their research activities and forms a local academic network, then let them exchange ideas with others. Then a new way of China studies with diversity in the research issues, methods and fields takes shape.
This research introduces the history of CEFC and the distinguished features of its periodical ¡§China Perspectives¡¨ through the information from some manuscripts of interviews and the researches of the former director Jean-Pierre Cabestan as a representative to show the character of researches of CEFC. Comparing to some China studies in other dominant countries, e.g. USA, Japan and other European countries, CEFC evokes a Vulnerable China Studies that means a softer and more flexible way. Every researcher through CEFC can use their own way to go into China, discuss China and understand the latest changes in China. Then they can shape the characteristic research approach that differs from the past.
