OrizzonteCina combina gli strumenti interpretativi propri delle scienze sociali con la sensibilità filologica degli studi d'area sinologici e si compone di una sezione tematica, di una sezione di saggi singoli, di una sezione dedicata all'analisi sociolinguistica, di rubriche a cura del Comitato editoriale, e di uno spazio riservato a brevi interventi di dibattito pubblico.
