Professor He is a member of the editorial board of more than ten international refereed journals, and is an assessor for the ARC Professorial Fellowship and ERA in Australia.

Baogang He develops a 'real utopian' democratic alternative to China’s empire-based approaches to Tibet and Taiwan. A unique strength of He’s approach is that it combines indigenous deliberative practices, such as those within the Confucian tradition, with the modern architecture of democracy. The result is an optimistic but realistic view of possible futures for Tibet and Taiwan within a post-imperial China.
