Event Description
Passage of China's Administrative Litigation Law in 1989 reflected and marked the culmination of a particularly vibrant period in Chinese legal and even political reform. Many of the practical obstacles to successful administrative litigation in the years since have likewise reflected the boundaries of reform. For the community of administrative law scholars and practitioners in China that first coalesced around the passage of the Administrative Litigation Law, the prospect of revising the law has long appeared as a good opportunity to try addressing at least some of those systemic limitations. Against the backdrop of history and expectations, this talk offers a preliminary evaluation of the actual revision of the Administrative Litigation Law that was finally adopted on November 1st. In the immediate aftermath of the Communist Party's Fourth Plenum meeting and a decision on promoting the "rule of law," the revision also serves as a valuable early litmus test.
