Drawing on hundreds of newly released judicial archives and court
cases, this book analyzes the communist judicial system in China
from its founding period to the death of Mao Zedong. It argues that
the communist judicial system was built when the CCP was engaged in
a life-or-death struggle with the GMD, meaning that the overriding
aim of the judicial system was, from the outset, to safeguard the
Party against both internal and external adversaries. This
fundamental insecurity and perennial fear of loss of power obsessed
the Party throughout the era of Mao and beyond, prompting it to
launch numerous political campaigns, which forced communist
judicial cadres to choose between upholding basic legal norms and
maintaining Party order. In doing all of this, The Communist
Judicial System in China, 1927-1976: Building on Fear fills a major
lacuna in our understanding of communist-era China.
