Opis

"Echoes of the Code" is a compilation of fifteen seminal papers on the history of Chinese law, bringing together a rich tapestry of scholarship that charts the evolution of Chinese legal systems from the ancient eras to the revolutionary base areas. Each chapter offers a detailed insight into pivotal moments in the history of Chinese jurisprudence, providing a chronological narrative from the reforms of the Song Shenzong period through the legal revisions at the end of the Qing Dynasty, to the law during the era of the revolutionary base areas. The book includes studies on Islamic law systems, the separation of powers, and comparative analyses of the French and German civil codes, illustrating the contrasts between Western legal achievements and the excellence of traditional Chinese legal culture.
