Features: Property and Economic Crime Special Topics is one of the series on criminal law by the Law School of Xiamen University. The main content of this book focuses on in-depth and systematic analysis of the issues in the constitution and identification of common property and economic crimes in the practice of criminal justice, from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The book has two distinctive features: First, it is up-to-date, addressing the new situations and problems of property and economic crimes under China's socialist market economy by employing the latest laws and judicial interpretations for comprehensive discussion. It provides in-depth analysis and introduction to new types of economic crimes emerging in the current stage, such as crimes of producing and selling counterfeit or substandard goods, smuggling, corporate crimes, financial crimes, contract fraud crimes, crimes obstructing tax collection, and intellectual property infringement. For traditional property crimes like robbery, theft, fraud, and embezzlement, it offers updated explanations of their new manifestations in the new era. It also conducts specialized research on the new special manifestations and constitutive characteristics of job-related property and economic crimes, such as corruption, misappropriation of public funds, bribery, and crimes of unexplainedly large assets. Second, it is highly practical, with a strong emphasis on the practical study of the boundaries between crime and non-crime, as well as between different crimes in property and economic offenses. The book strives to interpret the law through cases and analyze cases through the law, with relevant case commentaries appended to each chapter. This makes it particularly convenient for students and judicial personnel to combine theory with practice, gaining a deeper, more intuitive understanding of the characteristics and connotations of various property and economic crimes. The book is primarily compiled by Professor Chen Li, with selected contributions from other researchers. Chen Yun of the Jin'an District People's Court of Fuzhou City is specially invited to contribute to Part 2 of Chapter 8, Lu Tao of the Fujian Provincial People's Procuratorate is specially invited to contribute to Chapter 9, and Liu Zonghong of the Fujian Provincial People's Procuratorate is specially invited to contribute to Chapter 16. The case commentaries are adapted from Analysis of Difficult Cases in Criminal Law (Xiamen University Press, 2003 edition).
