China’s Education Legal System

In China’s thousands of years of development history, the Chinese legal system, which is different from the “continental legal system” and the “common law system”, has been formed. The Chinese legal system not only had an important impact on the development of ancient China, but also on the legislation of some countries in East Asia and Southeast Asia. After the defeat of several wars and economic decline in the middle and late nineteenth century, the Government of the Qing dynasty government began to reconstruct the legal system in the early twentieth century with the “continental law system” as a model.
