Features: The distinctive feature of comparative law lies in "crossing":
First, cross-disciplinary. Every discipline has its own field of comparison. Therefore, our Comparative Law Annual Conference gathers comparative law scholars from various disciplines.
Second, cross-field. It spans multiple areas, including theory and practice. Our Comparative Law Annual Conference includes not only scholars specializing in comparative law theory but also experts from legislative and enforcement departments. China's legislative and enforcement bodies increasingly need to refer to foreign legal systems in their practices.
Third, cross-border. The comparative law scholars attending the conference are familiar with diverse foreign legal systems, including those from civil law systems and common law systems, as well as Islamic law. Our Comparative Law Society also studies Islamic law.
