- Title
TRANSMISSION OF PUBLIC INTEREST LAW: A CHINESE CASE STUDY.
- Authors
Liu, Titi M.
- Abstract
This article seeks to examine the distinct way in which China has developed its public interest law, particularly as China can be differentiated from many other countries examined in the symposium as a one-party authoritarian state. While foreign models have played a role in developing China's public interest law, a larger part of the public interest law movement has developed front within. It will examine this in four parts: 1) China's evolving relationship with foreign concepts, models, and resources; 2) the development of various forms of public interest lawyering in China; 3) public interest litigation and its response to domestic obstacles; 4) litigation as a mobilization resource even in a country with a highly constrained judiciary and authoritarian political structure.
