Book excerpt: Protection of Property Rights has become a pressing issue in China since the country strived to move from a planned economy to a market economy in late 1970's. The passage of the Property Law of China on March 16, 2007 marked an historic change in the country from public to private in respect to property rights. Effective on October 1, 2007, the Property Law for the first time in Chinese history grants an equal protection to both public and private properties, breaking up the orthodox ideology in favor of public ownership against private ownership and individual liberty. With a notable civil law tradition, the Property Law is intended to set forth comprehensive rules regulating creation, alteration, alienation as well as termination of property rights, and protecting private property rights in China, a country where the public or state ownership is still playing a leading role in the nation's economy. Many rules in the Property Law, which are different from those in other countries, particularly the common law countries, are unique not only in their contents but also in their application. The land use rights typically reflect a Chinese reality in that the ownership of land is separated from the possession and use of it. Adoption of the Property Law in China is a substantial step toward protection of private property rights in the nation. The greatest challenge facing the country, however, is how to enforce the law so that the private property rights would be effectively protected, especially in the situation where the public ownership is involved. The Nail House syndrome that has spread all over the country indeed raises a serious issue of compensation in the case of taking. Whether or not the compensation must be just and reasonable remains to be answered.

Download or read book The Constitutional Protection of Private Property in China written by Chuanhui Wang and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-25 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book reviews the changes in legal reform around the constitutional protection of private property in China since 1949. Using a comparative approach, it analyses the development of property theories and the various constitutionalisation models and practices of private property in representative countries including the United States, Canada, Germany, India and China. It also explores the interwoven social forces that have been driving the evolution of the constitutional protection of private property in China. By comparing China with the United States, Germany and India, the author reveals the unfairness, unjustness and insufficiency in China's application of three constitutional doctrines – public use, just compensation and due process or procedure. The book concludes by predicting future progress and suggests feasible measures for gradual reform that will be compatible with China's existing political system.
Download or read book Rural Land Takings Law in Modern China written by Chun Peng and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-19 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most pressing issues in contemporary China is the massive rural land takings that have taken place at a scale unprecedented in human history. Expropriation of land has dispossessed and displaced millions for several decades, despite the protection of property rights in the Chinese constitution. Combining meticulous doctrinal analysis with in-depth historical investigation, Chun Peng tracks the origin and evolution of China's rural land takings law over the twentieth century and demonstrates an enduring tradition of land takings for state-led social transformation, under which the takings law is designed to be power-confirming. With changed socio-political circumstances and a new rights-respecting constitutional agenda, a rebalance of the law is now underway, but only within existing parameters. Peng provides a piercing analysis of how land has been used by the largest developing country in the world to develop itself, at what costs and where the future might be.
Download or read book The Turning Point in Private Law written by Ugo Mattei and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can private law assume an ecological meaning? Can property and contract defend nature? Is tort law an adequate tool for paying environmental damages to future generations? This book explores potential resolutions to these questions, analyzing the evolution of legal thinking in relation to the topics of legal personality, property, contract and tort.In this forward thinking book, Mattei and Quarta suggest a list of basic principles upon which a new, ecological legal system could be based. Taking private law to represent an ally in the defence of our future, they offer a clear characterization of the fundamental legal institutions of common law and civil law, considering the challenges of the Anthropogenic era, technological tools of the Internet era, and the global rise of the commons. Summarizing the fundamental institutions of private law: property rights, legal personality, contract, and tort, the authors reveal the limits of these legal institutions in relation to historical international evolution and their regulation in the contexts of catastrophic ecological issues and technological developments.Engaging and thoughtful, this book will be interesting reading for legal scholars and academics of private law and, in particular, those wishing to understand the role of law when facing technological and ecological challenges.

Download or read book The Emergence of Private Property Law in China and Its Impact on Human Rights written by Mark D. Kielsgard and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article explores the implications for, and development of, private property law in the PRC and its connection to the growth of the nascent Chinese human rights system. It evaluates the vitality of newly emerging human rights trends, reviews their historic, legal, and social backgrounds, and discusses how the introduction of private property in China has fundamentally altered its civil society. Drawing upon a comparative examination of international authority and statutory analysis, and evaluating them from the perspectives of both Chinese and Western scholarship, this article analyzes the trends behind improving democratic structures by reviewing the self-governance of condominium owners associations and the human rights improvements they have spawned. It also examines evolving statutory law governing property expropriation and newly developing rights to property in the PRC. Such progressive trends are counteracted by local corruption, lack of enforcement, and inadequate judicial review. These negative factors have traditional and historic underpinnings, which are currently being addressed by the Chinese legislature. This article will review this relevant legislation and offer predictions for the future of the Chinese private property system as it begins to nurture budding human rights reforms. Finally, it suggests initiatives to maximize those reforms through efficient legislative drafting and other efforts designed to nurture the sensitive and sometimes volatile free market.
Download or read book Constitutional Change in the Contemporary Socialist World written by Ngoc Son Bui and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the collapse of the Soviet bloc, there are only five socialist or communist countries left in the world – China, Cuba, Laos, North Korea, and Vietnam – which constitute about one-quarter of the world’s population. Yet, there is little scholarship on their constitutions. These countries have seen varying socioeconomic changes in the decades since 1991, which have led in turn to constitutional changes. This book will investigate, from a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective, how and why the constitutional systems in these five countries have changed in the last three decades. The book then breaks the constitutional changes down into four questions: what are the substantive contents of constitutional change, what are the functions, what are the mechanisms, and what are the driving forces? These questions form a framework to process the changes the five countries have gone through, such as making new constitutions, amending current ones, introducing more rights, allowing citizens to engage in changes, enacting legislation, and defining the constitutional authority of the three state branches and their relationship with the Communist Party. While all five countries have adapted their constitutional systems, the degree, mechanisms, and influential factors are not identical and present considerable variations. This book examines and explores these differences and how they developed. Constitutional Change in the Contemporary Socialist World offers a comprehensive and holistic view of an understudied and overlooked area of constitutional law, essential for anyone studying or working in law, politics, or policy.
