Features: The Human Rights Research Center of the Peking University Law School focuses on theoretical research on the protection of citizens' rights in China. As one of the series results of the "Peking University Human Rights Research Series," this book belongs to a work that studies the protection of citizens' rights during the pre-trial phase of criminal trials in China from new research methods and perspectives. The book includes papers submitted by prosecutors and judges. These papers not only offer kind-hearted explanations for the issue of extended detention without trial but also describe the current state of the extended detention system of the institution. The vivid insights provided by the close-up observations of participants in the unresolved detention system are worth our close attention. Finally, to give readers a more intuitive understanding of the problems in the unresolved detention system and the different voices from all sectors on this issue, we have included the full minutes of the symposium on the detention system held in November 2002.
