A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. This Research Guide will be the first step in your journey with Chinese law. China grows more important every day from a global perspective. However, studying and conducting research on Chinese law can be extremely challenging, especially if you do not know Mandarin well. This book is intended as a compact but comprehensive research guide that would provide students (especially those who are preparing coursework or dissertations about Chinese law), researchers and legal practitioners with the necessary knowledge about how to conduct effective Chinese legal research.
Chinese Legal Research is the first book to provide a condensed guide to legal research in China for foreign researchers. The goal of this book is to supply researchers with all of the background, tools, resources, and tips necessary to conduct effective Chinese legal research without even a basic knowledge of written Mandarin. Conducting legal research in China can be daunting to academics and practitioners from foreign jurisdictions regardless of whether they are from common law or civil law systems. This book overcomes the obstacles to conducting legal research in China by comparing the Chinese legal system to foreign jurisdictions and then providing advice and know-how on researching Chinese law. Chinese Legal Research concisely explains each aspect of China's legal system including its governmental structure, constitution, legislation, and administrations. It examines Chinese courts and how to conduct research when court judgments do not have precedential value. This book also contains a detailed guide to romanization, citations, and Chinese legal research services. The overall theme of this book is that foreign researchers can conduct quality research on Chinese law without learning Mandarin. It is especially helpful for foreign attorneys that wish to conduct legal research without relying on outside counsel or Chinese colleagues. Chinese Legal Research is recommended for academics and practitioners researching Chinese law. Paul Kossof was awarded the Global Legal Skills Scholarship and Book Award in recognition of his books that promote a better understanding of Chinese law and the Chinese legal system. The award was announced at the Global Skills Conference held in Melbourne, Australia, December 2018.
Today, China boasts the largest number of patent applications filed and approved in the world. Some leading Chinese companies, such as Huawei Technologies, Alibaba Group, and Tencent Holdings are on the cutting edge of technological innovation and production globally. In keeping up with the profound transformation in its economy, technology and society, the Chinese intellectual property law, especially the patent law, has evolved rapidly. Today, China's patent system, among other intellectual property rights regimes, is in line with the standard of developed nations such as the United States and Europe. This book teaches one how to conduct research in Chinese patent law and practice. It describes, in general terms, the patent legal system of China and how it is administered; it pulls together all relevant information sources, printed and electronic, for finding statutes, regulations, cases and other matters; and it provides a comprehensive bibliography, plus other useful resources. This new edition offers a sweeping revision of the first edition research guide. Every chapter of the first edition has been revised or reorganized to reflect the changes of the last decades. Much new information is added to this edition. Some new features, such as photos, are incorporated to make the book more readable. All these changes should make the guide more informative and easier to use by the reader.--Publisher.
The book explores some of the intricacies, dilemmas, and idiosyncrasies of the Chinese language used in the legal context, analyzing linguistic matters in both monolingual Chinese context and cross-linguistically when Chinese and English are compared. It investigates the linguistic and cultural landscape through an examination of a number of keywords and linguistic usage associated with Chinese law. It is suggested that to understand Chinese society and law, we need to understand the rich and idiosyncratic Chinese language and cultural traditions and the legal and political context and subtext, and also to be cognizant of the tension and interaction between legal norms and cultural and linguistic values in their legal realization in the changing Chinese society. The book is a collection of the author’s interpretation of Chinese law from a linguistic and cultural perspective, both as a user and interpreter of this ancient and changing language.
