This course takes students to the areas of significance in the field of dispute resolution in China, particularly with respect to the resolution of commercial disputes where arbitration plays a major role in today’s China. Major methods of dispute resolution will be examined, such as arbitration, civil litigation, and mediation (as it combines with arbitration and litigation). Some topical issues pertinent to commercial disputes such as corporate litigation, securities enforcement, recognition and enforcement of foreign civil judgments, civil justice reform, and regional judicial assistance in the Greater China region will be looked into in the course as well.
