Features: This book systematically introduces and elaborates on the basic concepts, principles, and knowledge of family law in accordance with the framework of the family law system. As a textbook compiled after the promulgation of the "Marriage Law of the People's Republic of China" (Amendment), this book also fully reflects the changes introduced by the amendment, as well as its judicial interpretations and scholarly explanations, while conducting forward-looking research on the development of China's family law. The book is divided into thirteen chapters, covering topics such as family law, family systems, and the fundamental theories and knowledge of family law, as well as a review of the historical development of family law and an outlook on its future. It focuses on analyzing and explaining the classification of relatives and legal facts, the statutory requirements for marriage, the validity of marriage, the conditions for the termination of marriage and its legal consequences, parent-child relationships, adoption, support, guardianship, and the legal and social responsibilities that individuals who infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of family members should bear. Additionally, it provides an analysis of cross-border, Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan-related family law issues in the appendix. The book is rich in content, up-to-date in its references, and rigorously argued, making it suitable as a textbook for undergraduate students in law schools and also serving as a reference for personnel in civil affairs and judicial departments.
