Description 詳情

Abstract: 

Early Imperial China (221 BCE -9CE) formed the foundation of the legal system for two millennia of Chinese dynastic history. This talk will explore the philosophical conception of justice in lieu of the mutual responsibility system---a widely practiced principle that produced a large number of innocent convicts. It shall examine the way early Chinese thinkers, officials, and emperors perceived justice in general and legal justice in particular.
