ABSTRACT

The Research Center for Chinese Practices of University of Incheon conducts overall researches on the structures and principles that have driven Chinese people and society at the core and has a need to systematically generate and accumulate basic research data through field study and literature materials collection for such researches. Responding to the need, the Research Center for Chinese Practices of University of Incheon published Collection of Chinese Newspaper Articles and Selections in China’s Land Laws and Policy Documents. In China, agriculture is the very foundation of national economy, which explains why the Chinese regimes have made a very important policy issue out of the control and distribution of land ownership and usufruct. The land laws and ordinances well reflect the government's purport for enacting land acts as well as relations between land ownership and land usufruct, which is why publishing selections of China's land laws and policy documents is such a critical project to examine the changes and continuity of Chinese society. Selections in China’s Land Laws and Policy Documents holds huge significance in that it systematically covers land laws and ordinances over a long period of time from traditional times to the present. The fruit of the hard work by the researchers of the Research Center for Chinese Practices, it boasts a high level of size and completeness that is hard to match home and abroad.
