The relationship between politics and law in the early People's
Republic of China was highly contentious. Periods of intentionally
excessive campaign justice intersected with attempts to carve out
professional standards of adjudication and to offer retroactive
justice for those deemed to have been unjustly persecuted. How were
victims and perpetrators defined and dealt with during different
stages of the Maoist era and beyond? How was law practiced,
understood, and contested in local contexts? This volume adopts a
case study approach to shed light on these complex questions. By
way of a close reading of original case files from the grassroots
level, the contributors detail procedures and question long-held
assumptions, not least about the Cultural Revolution as a period of
"lawlessness."
