Features: The People's Court is a television program jointly organized by the General Office of the Supreme People's Court and the Economic Channel of China Central Television (CCTV). The program aims to "use cases to speak, promoting the standardized development of China's market economy." All the cases broadcast have been reviewed and recommended by the Supreme People's Court, featuring diverse and typical types. Since its launch in 2003, it has received widespread praise from the audience and legal professionals. In response to the demands of the audience and legal professionals, the General Office of the Supreme People's Court and the Economic Channel of CCTV have compiled the program into a series of books—Economy and Law: Explaining Laws through Cases. The book selects a variety of typical civil cases, divided into four parts: Contract Disputes; Disputes over Ownership, Tort, Unjust Enrichment, and Unjustified Management; Marriage and Family Disputes; and Special Procedure Cases, totaling 54 categories, along with some administrative and criminal cases. In addition to case summaries, statements from the plaintiff and defendant parties, and defense opinions from the lawyers of both sides, the book also includes comments from legal experts and the presiding judges, as well as relevant legal provisions. The selected cases feature intense conflicts and compelling narratives, with clear legal reasoning in the judgments, making them suitable for accurate legal explanations. They serve as an excellent textbook for popularizing legal knowledge and conducting legal education. Many of the classic cases from judicial practice provide valuable guidance and reference for judges and legal professionals at all levels of the courts.
