   The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) scored a number of outstanding achievements in 2001 and offered advice to the country's decision makers, its vice president Wang Luolin said here Monday.

   At the academy's annual work conference, Wang said that the CASS channeled 22.24 million yuan (2.68 million U.S. dollars) into 134 key research projects.

   Another 45 projects were funded with 2.94 million yuan by the national social scientific funds.

   Statistics show that in the past year, CASS researchers published more than 300 academic books, 3,300 thesis papers and about 700 research papers.

   A batch of academic books such as "On Democracy," "On China's Reform on Ownership," "Deng Xiaoping Theory and Global Strategy," and "Analysis and Suggestions on the September 11 Terrorist Attack on the U.S." were well received by academic circles as well as booksellers.

   Meanwhile, many books published by CASS researchers won national book awards.

   In 2001, the CASS academic guidance committee masterminded the research of 100 subjects which detailed the comprehensive situation faced by China at the beginning of the new century.

   Wang said that many researchers in CASS institutes actively participated in domestic and international exchanges and cooperation in the field of social sciences.
