Criticism on the urbanized trend of Chinese law research

By referring to the phenomena of the ever intensifying consummation of anti-fake laws resulting in ever increasing inundation of faking cases, this article describes the correlation between the consumers’ rights and the research on Chinese law. It is further pointed out that the relationship between the study of Chinese law and the protection of consumers’ rights typically interprets the difficult situation of Chinese law research: On the one hand, Chinese law does not give the required attention to the protection of consumers’ rights concerning people’s health and life safety. Worse, all the discussions about the issues of consumers’ rights are all oriented on serious urbanization tendency and departmental law science tendency, judging or measuring the concrete realities of consumers’ rights in China based on the concepts of western laws. The specific time-and-space element of China endowing essential meanings in the research of consumers’ rights in Chinese law as the base and evidence of research is eliminated, leaving the research of Chinese law in a distorted position in China. __________ Translated from China Reform, No. 9, 2005
