Features: This book is a project of the Humanities and Social Sciences Research of Guangdong Province's ordinary universities. The signing and implementation of CEPA have injected new vitality into economic and trade cooperation between Mainland China and Hong Kong and Macao. To ensure the healthy development of this cooperation, the book briefly interprets the essence of CEPA while proposing the establishment of an interregional economic and trade dispute resolution mechanism. It explores the theoretical foundation, basic principles, determination of external law, resolution of jurisdictional disputes, and lessons from the WTO dispute resolution mechanism. This lays a theoretical foundation for the subsequent arguments on political resolution mechanisms, civil resolution mechanisms, arbitration resolution mechanisms, judicial resolution mechanisms, and relevant procedural requirements. The author's basic standpoint is to proceed based on needs, connect with reality, design frameworks, and improve the extent, enabling relevant parties to effectively select appropriate dispute resolution methods. This provides academic references for national decision-making bodies to continuously improve interregional economic and trade cooperation mechanisms and for law enforcement agencies to properly handle existing economic disputes.
