Abstract

In this book, Bakken puts together a collection of interesting essays on crime, policing and punishment in China, an area which has often been covered more by myth and rhetoric than rational discussion. A significant contribution of the book is its effort to de-mystify the Chinese criminal justice system (CJS) by arguing that since CJS in China is in transition it faces problems that many societies have faced and are still facing.

Keywords: Asian studies
