Features: The book Research on the Chinese Judicial System, co-authored by Professors Wang Shengsong and Wang Chengru, is the culmination of their long-term research and teaching in law at higher education institutions. It is also a comprehensive work that integrates their respective areas of expertise. Before it was published, I was privileged to read it first and was delighted to write the preface. The history of China's judicial system is long and profound. Over its long development, it has formed its own national cultural characteristics. Whether it is the gradual formation of a sound institutional system, the rational evidence rules it has developed, or its unique cultural traits, all of these have established China's judicial system as an important player in the global judicial landscape, giving it distinct national features and exerting profound influence. The contributors to Research on the Chinese Judicial System include those who excel in legal theory research, those with a strong expertise in the history of thought, those specializing in institutional culture with deep insights, and scholars with extensive experience in judicial practice. The book, co-authored by such a diverse group of experts, fully showcases their individual research strengths, allowing us to appreciate that the research presented in this book demonstrates a balanced and robust approach, whether in theory and practice or in breadth and depth of exploration. The book provides a comprehensive exposition of the Chinese judicial theory, judicial system, judicial ethics, ancient Chinese judicial system, and modern Chinese judicial system, among other topics.
