Building a socialist new countryside is a major historical task in China's modernization process. During this construction, the power of the rule of law plays a crucial role, serving as a strong guarantee for the development of new rural areas in China. The rule of law, with its roots in the grassroots and in the countryside, is fundamental. In the current effort to establish a correct legal mindset and continuously strengthen and improve China's rural legal system, this book is the preferred reading for leaders at all levels, administrative departments, agricultural sectors, and a broad range of legal enforcement personnel. It is not only suitable for decision-makers in administrative departments at all levels, agricultural law enforcement personnel, and students and faculty in law and agricultural colleges for training and teaching purposes but also for social science researchers for use and reference.
