In the eyes of the majority of westerners, china's criminal
procedure is full of torture,menace, enticement and other types of
inhuman methods. this is understandable because they got
information about china's criminal procedure primarily from the
media, the job of which is to attract the public's attention, or
from scholars' articles, papers and books that focus on china's
ancient legal system, or police practice at or before the "great
culture revolution", and thus gives them an uninformed conception
of china's criminal procedure that is limited in informal areas or
ancient times. many times, our focus is distracted by inadequate,
and biased information, and thus hampers us from seeking the
truth.
this book is to give a concise but comprehensive introduction of
chinese criminal procedure to people who do not know chinese
language but are interested in learning about chinese law. in order
to make the introduction easily accessible, this book discusses
problems which are commonly examined and debated by western
scholars in a way that western legal scholars are familiar with.
since a significant amount of western criminal procedure
lawsconcerns citizens' constitutional rights, this book focuses on
the protections of citizens'constitutional rights in the context of
criminal procedure.
In particular, this book seeks to address the following questions:
in what extent does the contemporary chinese criminal procedure law
protects citizens' houses, privacy and personal freedom? does the
suspect have the right to remain silent when being
interrogated?shall the defendant be presumed innocent when facing a
criminal charge? in what extent does a defendant have the right to
a fair trial? these questions will be addressed in turn in this
book, providing detailed analysis and explanations for each of the
issues identified.
