Delivering Justice In Qing China
Traditional Chinese law, including Qing law, was often criticized as being inapplicable in civil trials and it was often believed that the magistrate's court preferred mediation rather than decision-making. This volume challenges these views and aims to repair the distorted picture of Qing civil justice.
