Since the first edition, and indeed since the previous edition, many changes have taken place in China which have impacted on commercial law. Changes
have resulted both from domestic reforms and China’s integration into the world economy. Domestically, the legal system has been reformed by the adoption of the Legislative Law, provided powers at various levels of government and created procedures for making laws, national and local. This is covered in detail. Globally, China’s accession to the WTO in November 2001 has made broader trading rights into a reality. For more than half of a century after the establishment of the People’s Republic of China, individuals and enterprises were not entitled to conduct foreign trade. The fourth edition incorporates all the developments brought about by WTO obligations, comprising numerous laws and regulations in connection with trade in goods, trade in services, foreign investment, intellectual property protection, antidumping, subsidies and countervailing duties, safeguards and taxation.
This book is designed to meet the needs of the legal academic, the practitioner and business person interested in or doing business with or in China. It is also
particularly suitable for law students studying Chinese civil and commercial law and law on international business transactions.
