It traces the ways in which laws and regulations have shaped civil society over the 5,000 years of China's history, and looks at ways in which social and economic history have affected the legal changes that have occurred over the millennia. It provides a historical and current analysis of the legal framework for civil society and citizen participation in China, focusing not merely on legal analysis, but also on the ways in which the legal framework influenced and was influenced in turn by social and economic developments. The principal emphasis is on how the Chinese people—as opposed to high-ranking officials or cadres—have been able to play a part in the social and economic development of China through the associations in which they participate. This book sums up this rather complex journey through Chinese legal, social, and political history by assessing the ways in which social, economic, and legal system reforms in today's China are bound to have an impact on civil society. The changes that have occurred in China's civil society since the late 1980s and, most especially, since the late 1990s, are nothing short of remarkable. Karla W.
