Publisher's Synopsis
The Constitution of the People's Republic of China (PRC) came into force in 1982, only a few years after the Cultural Revolution and the launching of reforms. However, since then, the PRC has changed significantly. Although amended four times, does the Constitution still match the needs of China's society today? Where is Chinese constitutionalism heading? Are there any plans to improve and further institutionalize the implementation of the Constitution? How are Chinese legal experts discussing the future of their Constitution? This volume features papers presented during a conference on the Chinese Constitution held in 2012. (Series: Chinese History and Society / Berliner China-Hefte - Vol. 45) [Subject: Asian Studies, Chinese Studies, Politics, Constitutional Law]
