Fields of Research

 

Research in Chinese law at the University of Cologne focuses on constitutional development, in particular on judicial reforms and rights litigation. Chinese administrative law including policies, laws and practice of regulating international migration to China is a further focal point of our research. Chinese practice of public international law and Chinese scholarly views on issues of public international law as well as domestic implementation of international treaties form another area of research. Finally, we investigate issues of comparative law, legal transfers and legal culture, which are related to Greater China and Chinese legal development.
