The formulation of the State Compensation Law holds a milestone significance for China, a country with a feudal tradition of "the people do not accuse the officials" and "officials do not repent their judgments" for thousands of years. It is also for this reason that its implementation is inevitably challenging. This book attempts to provide an accurate description of the entire process of state compensation from the perspective of theory and practice, including confirmation, claims, negotiation, review, decision, and execution. It also delves into the hotspots and difficulties of state compensation, such as compensation principles, act confirmation, mental damages, torture, false confessions, burden of proof, and legislative improvement, supplemented by 167 cases, with the aim of contributing to the restoration of victims' rights.
