It consists of more than 400 texts covering international laws and regulations (e.g., treaties) as well as political speeches delivered in front of or in connection to an international audience. It aims to be representative of Mandarin official texts of international relevance as a textual genre. Texts were collected from institutional and governmental repositories. Each text has been saved in .txt format so to make it readable by commonly used software tools for corpus analysis such as Sketch Engine, AntConc, and #LancsBox. The corpus comes with a metadata file whereby each file has been coded for language, territorial entity, signature and amendment dates.

Abstract
The corpus of Chinese language International Relations (#ChInRel) is a diachronic corpus of texts from the ’50s to present days relating to the international relations of Chinese-speaking territorial entities (Sinosphere). It consists of more than 400 texts covering international laws and regulations (e.g., treaties) as well as political speeches delivered in front of or in connection to an international audience. It aims to be representative of Mandarin official texts of international relevance as a textual genre. Texts were collected from institutional and governmental repositories. Each text has been saved in .txt format so to make it readable by commonly used software tools for corpus analysis such as Sketch Engine, AntConc, and #LancsBox. The corpus comes with a metadata file whereby each file has been coded for language, territorial entity, signature and amendment dates.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
