Following a decline in court cases made public through China Judgments Online over the past few years and the recent launch of a new, Supreme People’s Court-curated case database, there has been increasing discussion about the role case law can play in China’s legal system. Discussion about the launch of a case database only available internally has further complicated the situation. To provide analysis on these developments, Susan Finder, Distinguished Scholar in Residence at the Peking University School of Transnational Law and founder of the Supreme People’s Court Monitor, will deliver a presentation on The Dynamic Evolution of Case Law with Chinese Characteristics.
This will be followed by an exchange about how the European Chamber participates in the process of lawmaking and regulation drafting.
Tentative agenda:
14:45-15:00: Arrival and registration
15:00-15:05: Welcoming remarks
15:05-15:35: The Dynamic Evolution of Case Law with Chinese Characteristics by Susan Finder
15:35-16:05: Q&A moderated by European Chamber Executive Committee Co-opted Board Member Ninette Dodoo
