Features: Contract law holds an important position in China's legal system. As a crucial component of civil and commercial law, contract law regulates property relationships between equal subjects, primarily those in market transaction relationships. At the same time, contract law is closely linked to the daily lives of modern society, as contract acts are the most common and widespread legal behaviors in daily life. Since the implementation of the People's Republic of China Contract Law, nearly five years have passed, and it has played a significant role in regulating contract relationships in China, promoting the perfection of the market economy, and advancing the development of socialist rule of law. Academic discussions surrounding the theory and practice of contract law have also remained a focal point. This book is based on the People's Republic of China Contract Law and relevant judicial interpretations, extensively incorporating the latest achievements in contract law discipline construction. It emphasizes the connection between theory and practice, employing a method that combines theoretical research with case analysis to provide explanations. The book strives to meet the demands of the times and cater to the diverse needs of readers. In terms of structure, the book is organized according to the system of contract law, divided into two main parts—General Principles of Contract Law and Specific Provisions of Contract Law—comprising a total of twenty-five chapters. It is suitable for use in legal research and can also serve as a teaching resource for undergraduate institutions.
