The consequences of the National Social Science Program being terminated are as follows:

1. Applicants or participants who forge or alter application materials will be given a warning by the National Social Science Planning Office; If funding has been obtained, the National Social Science Planning Office will make a decision to cancel the project and recover the allocated funding; if the circumstances are serious, the applicant will not be allowed to apply for or participate in the application for National Social Science Fund projects within 5 years.

2. If the project cannot be completed on time, the project leader needs to apply to the project organizer for an extension in time before the project completion deadline. The specific extension period depends on the situation and may not exceed two years at most.

After the National Social Science Project is terminated and withdrawn, the responsible unit will freeze the funds for its scientific research projects and return them to the General Office account according to the original channels, and recover the balance of the allocated funds. Because the project has been cancelled, the professional title can no longer be assessed. When canceling a scientific research project, the project leader may apply to the Fund Committee through the unit according to the National Social Science Fund Project Management Measures.

Reasons for the termination of National Social Sciences:

1. The research results had serious political problems.

2. The academic quality of the research results is poor.

3. The first appraisal failed. After modification, the re-appraisal still failed.

4. Plagiarizing other people’s work.

5. Seriously inconsistent with the approved project design.
