Summary
This new edition represents a significant update to the previous version, reflecting the many changes and developments that have taken place in China's legal system and legal publishing industry over the past two decades. In the years since the publication of the first edition, China has undergone a period of rapid growth and transformation, both economically and politically.

The Chinese government organizations, departments, and institutions also went through three restructures and adjustment respectfully in 2008, 2013, and 2018. In this edition, readers are provided with an up-to-date overview of the Chinese constitution, legal philosophies, ideologies, government structures, legal institutions, legislative process, judicial system, government information dissemination, legal publishing industry, and legal research.--Publisher.
