This book consists of well-chosen legal terms in ancient China, in an effort to delineate the panorama of rule-of-law evolution in China. All illustrated with hand-picked citations from Chinese classics or literary works, they are organized in the three sections of legal philosophy, legal system and legal culture. The first section collects terms reflecting the symbolic views, ideas and theories of spiritual civilization in the formation and development of rule of law; the second section contains terms reflecting the typical mechanism, system of institutional civilization in the process; the third section includes terms relating, including signs, symbols, instruments, facilities, etc. The selected terms have been widely used and highly recognizable in daily practice, taking hold in both history and practice, and reflective the spirit of modern jurisprudence to a certain extent. Academically rigorous and expressed in simple and intuitive language, their interpretation is accurate, without ambiguity or major theoretical dispute, aligned with actual needs for building a law-based country, government and society in China and adapted to popular reading habits to ensure readability and comprehensibility.
