Much has been said and written about the rule of law in the People’s Republic of China. As the issue has recently been put on the reformist agenda again, a review is warranted, including a reality check. Also, there is a need to explore, whether new analytical approaches may offer a better understanding about these developments.
The CeMEAS workshop will bring together experts in the field to reflect on the reform agenda as discussed at the fourth plenary session of the CPC Central committee in 2014 and look into the details of developments in one of the most significant areas of the rule of law, which is criminal law. In the sense of a reality check, the workshop will also address current measures against lawyers, activists and the legal profession more generally.
