The right to speak in Chinese social science academic journals is an integral part of the right to speak in China’s national image in the new journey of Chinese-style modernization. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the issue of the right to speak has gradually been put on the national agenda, showing an increasingly important position and role. At present, there are some deviations in the practice and research of the discourse power of academic journals, which need to be deepened from the three aspects: communication, guidance and influence.The right to speak in Chinese academic journals of social sciences has its own uniqueness. The first is the ideological orientation on the main body,the second is the characteristics of channels and languages in communication, the third is the characteristics of evaluation and dialogue in influence, and the fourth is the characteristics of problems and plans in guidance. These characteristics determine the characteristics of the right to speak in Chinese social science academic journals, which will mainly focus on domestic "internal circulation" and supplemented by international "external circulation".The current situation of the right to speak in Chinese social science academic journals is that in terms of communication, the communication power of a single journal is weak and the database is the main model. In terms of guidance, the domestic guidance power is strong and the international guidance power is weak. In terms of influence, a large number of Chinese social science academic journals have emerged with high domestic impact factors and low international impact factors. To enhance the right to speak in Chinese social science academic journals, in terms of communication power,the first is to continuously optimize the main channel of database communication, the second is to do a good job in strengthening the social communication of integrated media, and the third is to explore and deepen the communication of clustered communities; In terms of guiding power, one is to guide the direction of academic research through topic setting, the second is to guide the academic research paradigm through normative setting, and the third is to guide the integration of academic research through discourse setting; In terms of influence, from a qualitative point of view, it is evaluation, reading preference and word of mouth, and from a quantitative point of view, it is a series of data-based impact factor indicators.under the strong leadership of the Party, the construction of the right to speak in Chinese social science academic journals should solve Chinese problems with academic achievements of creative transformation and innovative development, answer the questions of the times, highlight the Chinese road, and form an "external circulation" discourse power of international social science academia that matches China’s comprehensive national strength and international status on the basis of the "internal circulation" right to speak in Chinese social science academia.
