Early in the year 1908, massmeetings were held in Kiangsu and Chekiang and representatives were sent to Pekin to urge upon the Government a speedy convocation of a national assembly. In consequence of that earnest popular demand, on August 27 the Government issued an edict laying out a program of the nine-year preparation before the granting of the constitution. III. PRELIMINARY STEPS TOWARD THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT A. Early Reforms. The requests and demands for the cancellation of preliminary railway agreements led to demands for a constitutional government. But before proceeding to a study of the constitutional movement, it is desirable, perhaps, to make a review of the preceding reforms and attempts at reformation, so that we may be placed in a better position to see its gradual development. 1. Naval and industrial reforms under Tseng Kwofan, Li Hung-chang and Chang Chihtung. In 1865, through Tseng Kwofan, arsenals and shipyards were established at Fuchau, Nanking, and Shanghai. In 1876 a railway running between Shanghai and Wusung, covering a distance of twenty miles, was constructed. About the same time, through Li Hung-chang (1822-1901), telegraph service was inaugurated and the Chinese- Merchants' Steam Navigation Company was established. In 1887, in order to facilitate the transportation of the output of the Kaiping coal mines, the second railway in China was constructed. Chang Chihtung, after he was appointed the Viceroy of the Hu-Kwang Provinces in 1889, caused huge factories and workshops to be erected on the banks of the Yangste River opposite Hankau. The mechanical equipment consisted of "two large blast furnaces of the Cleveland type, with all their apparatus, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Survey of Constitutional Development in China: Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Political Science in Columbia University IN this monograph the author does not attempt to write a sketch of Chinese history, but only endeavors to pre sent in an orderly way, mainly for the occidental reader, the important constitutional changes that have occurred in the gradual development Of the Chinese state. To him the development of the Chinese state, as any other state, may be likened to a mountain-range, which at places rises to be high mountains and at others dwindles to become low val leys. The mountains are not of the same height, nor are the valleys of the same distance. It is the high mountains that have received his attention and treatment here. The period of over years extending from the close of the third century B. C. To the end of the nineteenth represents a long stretch of 1ow plain, a due recognition and considera tion of which will readily explain the so-called arrested development of the Chinese civilization and the fond at tachment of the Chinese people to the ancient régime. Toward the close of the past century the range once more began to rise and is now rapidly rising. On account of the recency of the change the author has refrained from enter ing upon a critical study of the events but contents himself with an orderly statement of the important facts.

This book was released on 2021-03 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of selected works by Professor Albert H.Y. Chen shows the contours of the author’s scholarship as it developed over 35 years of his academic career, from 1984 to the present. The essays are divided into three sections which cover the three major domains of Professor Chen’s research. Part I covers the legal developments and controversies of “One Country, Two Systems” since the Hong Kong interpretation on “the right of abode” in 1999 to the anti-extradition movement of 2019. Part II shifts to focus on tradition and modernity in Chinese Law, including China’s Confucian and Legalist traditions and how the socialist legal system in China evolved and modernized in the era of “reform and opening”. Part III examines the transplantation of Western thinking and constitutionalism to East Asia in modern times and discusses the achievements and failures of these efforts. In conjunction with an introductory chapter that sets out the basic orientation and paradigm of these legal and constitutional studies and an epilogue that reflects on the main themes, this collection exemplifies the author’s important contributions to the field and provides insight into how the legal orders in Hong Kong and mainland China have changed over the course of Professor Chen’s academic career.

Download or read book A Confucian Constitutional Order written by Jiang Qing and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-28 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What a Confucian constitutional government might look like in China's political future As China continues to transform itself, many assume that the nation will eventually move beyond communism and adopt a Western-style democracy. But could China develop a unique form of government based on its own distinct traditions? Jiang Qing—China's most original, provocative, and controversial Confucian political thinker—says yes. In this book, he sets out a vision for a Confucian constitutional order that offers a compelling alternative to both the status quo in China and to a Western-style liberal democracy. A Confucian Constitutional Order is the most detailed and systematic work on Confucian constitutionalism to date. Jiang argues against the democratic view that the consent of the people is the main source of political legitimacy. Instead, he presents a comprehensive way to achieve humane authority based on three sources of political legitimacy, and he derives and defends a proposal for a tricameral legislature that would best represent the Confucian political ideal. He also puts forward proposals for an institution that would curb the power of parliamentarians and for a symbolic monarch who would embody the historical and transgenerational identity of the state. In the latter section of the book, four leading liberal and socialist Chinese critics—Joseph Chan, Chenyang Li, Wang Shaoguang, and Bai Tongdong—critically evaluate Jiang's theories and Jiang gives detailed responses to their views. A Confucian Constitutional Order provides a new standard for evaluating political progress in China and enriches the dialogue of possibilities available to this rapidly evolving nation. This book will fascinate students and scholars of Chinese politics, and is essential reading for anyone concerned about China's political future.

Download or read book Courts Politics and Constitutional Law written by Martin Belov and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-16 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how the judicialization of politics, and the politicization of courts, affect representative democracy, rule of law, and separation of powers. This volume critically assesses the phenomena of judicialization of politics and politicization of the judiciary. It explores the rising impact of courts on key constitutional principles, such as democracy and separation of powers, which is paralleled by increasing criticism of this influence from both liberal and illiberal perspectives. The book also addresses the challenges to rule of law as a principle, preconditioned on independent and powerful courts, which are triggered by both democratic backsliding and the mushrooming of populist constitutionalism and illiberal constitutional regimes. Presenting a wide range of case studies, the book will be a valuable resource for students and academics in constitutional law and political science seeking to understand the increasingly complex relationships between the judiciary, executive and legislature.
