Features: Law, generally conservative. It is not the harbinger of a new era, but it can be called the most magnificent peony in the garden of blooming flowers. If flowers are "when spring arrives, they bloom," then the "late-emerging" law should actively embrace the changes heralded by the times. China's legislative body has been working on the creation, revision, and abolition of laws to adapt to changes in the era and potential changes in the new century, and legal educators should also take action. This book systematically reviews the development of ancient Chinese legal thought from the Xia and Shang dynasties to the late Qing Dynasty, discussing its origins, the preparation and establishment period of orthodox legal thought, the emergence period of modern legal thought, and more.
