China: Just Legal System Needed
Posted by Dan on December 14, 2007 at 02:42 AM
Very interesting column in the International Herald Tribune by Jerome A. Cohen, widely considered a leading figure in Chinese law. The article is entitled "A just legal system" and Cohen's thesis is that though "China now has hundreds of thousands of able and increasingly well-trained legal specialists eager to build a credible legal system - one that can meet the demands of a more sophisticated economy and society," China still has a long way to go in legal reform.
It is Well worth the read.

I agree China does have a growing number of well-trained legal specialists but they are mostly working in and only interested in business law.
