Features: The emergence and development of economic law are based on the emergence and development of economic relationships. However, as a discipline, economic law began to attract attention gradually from the 20th century. In China, the legal regulation of economic relationships can be traced back to a long time ago, but it was not until the late 1970s of the last century that economic law was truly studied as a discipline. This book is primarily presented as a tutorial on economic law as an applied discipline. Therefore, from the perspective of theoretical research on economic law, it may seem insufficient, but in terms of its logical structure and comprehensiveness, it can meet the needs of higher education institutions in China for teaching economic law. Since the materials used in this book are as up-to-date as possible, under the framework of governing the country according to law, this book is not only suitable for law majors but also widely applicable to self-study and reference for theoretical and practical workers in economics and management.
The division of this book is innovative, breaking away from the traditional classification of general economic law textbooks. The tutorial is divided into the following sections: Basic Theories of Economic Law, Legal Systems for Market Participant Organizations, Legal Systems for Market Participant Behavior, Legal Systems for Market Order, Legal Systems for Macro-Control, Legal Systems for Social Security, and Legal Systems for Economic Dispute Resolution. The novelty of the divisions is primarily reflected in the chapters they contain. In the Legal Systems for Market Participant Organizations, we have set up chapters such as Company Law, Partnership and Sole Proprietorship Law, State-Owned Enterprise Law, and Legal Systems for Other Economic Organizations. This provides a well-organized description of the basic forms of economic organizations under market economy conditions and some transitional forms of market participants that still exist during the process of economic system reform. In the Legal Systems for Market Participant Behavior, we have included two chapters: Financial Law and Intellectual Property Law. The former introduces the Commercial Bank Law, Securities Law, Insurance Law, Trust Law, Trademark Law, Patent Law, Copyright Law, and other intellectual property legal systems, while the latter is designed to meet people's basic understanding of legal systems for market participant behavior. In the Legal Systems for Market Order, we have set up five chapters: Technical Supervision Law, Competition Law, Transaction Safety Law, Consumer Rights Protection Law, and Bankruptcy Law. These chapters respectively describe the Metrology Law, Standardization Law, Product Quality Law, Anti-Monopoly Law, Anti-Imprisonment Law, Guarantee Law, Negotiable Instruments Law, Letter of Credit Law, Consumer Rights Protection Law, and Bankruptcy Law. In the Legal Systems for Macro-Control, we have set up three chapters: Comprehensive Economic Control Law, Instrumental Economic Control Law, and Directional Economic Control Law. These chapters respectively describe the Plan Law, Budget Law, Environmental Law, Resource and Energy Law, Foreign Trade Law, Central Bank Law, Tax Law, Price Law, Accounting and Audit Law, Promotion Law for Small and Medium Enterprises, and Promotion Law for Clean Production. In the Legal Systems for Social Security, we have included two chapters: Social Security Law and Social Insurance Law. These chapters respectively describe the Social Aid Law, Social Welfare Law, Preferential Treatment and Settlement Law, Old-Age Pension Law, Unemployment Insurance Law, Medical Insurance Law, Maternity Insurance Law, and Work Injury Insurance Law. In the Legal Systems for Economic Dispute Resolution, we have set up three chapters: Legal Systems for Economic Arbitration, Legal Systems for Economic Trials, and the WTO Dispute Settlement Mechanism and Economic Dispute Resolution.
The arrangement of these divisions and chapters not only reflects the systematic considerations of this tutorial but also aligns with a fundamental principle in its basic theories: the theory that economic law adjusts the social public economic relationships in the process of modern economic operation.
