VI. Main Research Fields and Academic Viewpoints
1. The Constitution is the law adjusting the relations between the individual and the state. The characteristics of the constitutional law system in modern Chinese history originated from the unique understandings of the relationship between the state and the individual and the mode of existence of the individual in the life of the state. In her article “The Cultural Basis of Constitutionalism in Modern Chinese History: The Confucian Outlook on the Relationship Between the Collective and the Individual”, she holds that the western standard is not the only standard for understanding and defining individual freedoms. The unique way the relations between “human beings”, society and the state shaped by Chinese philosophy, culture and history constitutes the cultural basis and the prominent characteristic of the constitutional system in modern Chinese history. She analyzes the process and the form of the shaping of the relationship between the individual and the state (society) by the Chinese culture in the following three dimensions: “benevolence is the distinguishing characteristic of man”, “a monarch is someone who is good at organizing manpower and material resources”, and “he who governs is upright” and holds that the Chinese understanding of the relationship between the individual and the state should not be simply described as “the state-oriented” or “the individual-oriented”, but should be defined as the mutually internal relationship between the individual and the state.
On the basis of the above analysis and in the context of modernization construction in China, she puts forward in her monograph “Studies on the Unique Characteristics of Constitutional Theories in Modern Chinese History” the presupposition that the compatibility between individual and state interests and the priority given to the state interest are the theoretical basic points of the constitutional system in modern Chinese history.
She holds that the presupposition and the construction of the compatibility between individual and state interests justifies the constitutional value pursuit of national prosperity and strength, and determines the constitutional power structure and rights connotation, as well as the development road of ruling the country by constitution and law in China. By projecting the mutually internal and correlative relationship between individuals and between the individual and the state shaped by Chinese culture onto international relations, China puts forward the important initiative of constructing a community with shared future for mankind, thereby promoting the establishment of a new type of international relationship of mutual respect, fairness, justice, cooperation and mutual benefit. It is exactly from this angle that she interprets the unique connotation and Chinese wisdom of the initiative of constructing a community with shared future for mankind.
2. Professor Liu has closely followed the development of the legislative system and practice in China, and carried out theoretical and empirical researches at the macroscopic, mesoscopic and microscopic levels of such issues as state legislative systems and mechanisms, provincial legislative practices, special legislation and the legislative safeguards for the construction of the rule of law at the grassroots level.
In the annual reports on legislation published in the Blue Book on the Rule of Law in China and the article “Legislative Reform and the Construction of the System of Law”, she summarizes the achievements made, experiences gained and problems encountered by China in the construction of the rule of law during the 40 years of reform and opening-up, especially in recent years. In her monograph “Research Report on the Provincial-Level Local Legislation”, she summarizes the general rules and characteristics of provincial-level local legislation on the basis of the big data analysis of 5,637 pieces of provincial-level local legislation, and analyzes the dual function of provincial-level local legislation of implementing state laws and adopting local regulations and mechanisms for its realization under the “unified and hierarchical” legislative system.
In her monograph “the Rule of Law Dimension of Grassroots Self-governance”, she reviews and studies the legal system of grassroots democracy and grassroots self-governance and holds that the current urban-rural dual electoral pattern created by the constitution, local organic laws and the organic laws of villagers’ and residents’ committees has very limited “spillover effect” on the construction of democratic political system in the country, whereas grassroots participation and grassroots self-governance have a greater role to play and therefore it is especially important to strengthen the research on and construction of the state and folk laws in this area.
Law on the capital city is a new research area. Since 2014, she has led four research projects relating to the law on the capital city commissioned by the Legislative affairs Office of the Government of Beijing Municipality, Beijing Law Society and other organizations, and published the think tank report “Studies on Issues relating to the Legislation on the Capital City against the Background of Coordinated Development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region”, and two research reports and two articles in Annual Reports from Research Projects Sponsored by Beijing Law Society (2017), Post-doctoral Symposium (2017), Reform and Opening-up and the County-level Development in China: Part I (2018), and BFSU Legal Science (2019). In these reports, she defines the connotation of capital city and capital functions and puts forward proposals on the construction of corresponding power-responsibility relations and legal systems. Moreover, she has also carried out researches on such topics as intra-Party regulations, local environmental legislation, and embodiment of core values in legislation, and submitted many internal reports - some proposals in these reports have been adopted by Party or state leaders.
3. Professor Liu has also engaged in theoretical researches on the people’s congress system and the system of representative government. To teach graduate course on “the people’s congress system and the election system”, she has carried out thorough researches on theories of representative government and on historical materials on the people’s congress system, and have achieved some preliminary results in the research in these two areas. In her article “State Supervisory System and Mechanisms under the People’s Congress System”, she analyzes the dual supervision system that consists of the supervision over state organs and the supervision over civil servants from the perspective of the people’s congress system and the theory of representative government, and puts forward the opinion that the supervision over supervisory committees by people’s congresses should not take the form of simple work reporting. Instead, China should adopt a system whereby a supervisory committee reports their specific work to the standing committee of the people’s congress at the same level, while at the same time continuously enriching and innovating the mode of supervision by adopting different supervisory mechanisms.
VII. Introductions to Representative Works
1. The Rule of Law Dimension of Grassroots Self-Governance, Beijing: China Social Sciences Press, April 2018
Democracy is not only a value concept, but more importantly, also a political practice: it is only through the practice of democratic politics can we know what kind of democratic politics can be developed in Chinese society and how to further improve the existing democratic political system. This book, by looking back at history, observing the current reality, and analyzing the relevant theories, puts forward the following original suggestions on the research of grassroots governance: (1) Analyzing “the spillover effect” of urban-rural grassroots self-governance on democracy and its mode and scope of action on the basis of the “upward and downward” two-way approach to the construction of democratic politics, the “upward and downward” two-way promotion of grassroots governance, the mutual development of electoral democracy and participatory democracy and the dual pattern of rural villagers’ self-governance and urban residents’ self-governance. (2) Taking community participation as the test field and training ground for participatory democracy, carrying out empirical study and analysis of the sense of political efficacy of community participation. (3) Transcending the limitation of simple “rule of law safeguard” in research perspective and analyzing the multiple rule-of-law dimensions of grassroots governance system, namely: grassroots governance needs to be effectively safeguarded by the construction of the rule of law in the country while at the same time directly contributing to and promoting the construction of the rule of law in the country; it is the most important field of the construction of law-based society while at the same time providing solid basis and key elements for the construction of a law-based state and a law-based government; and it is subject to both the hard regulation by state laws and the soft constraint by such civil-society norms as village rules and folk laws. (4) thoroughly reviewing the current laws and policies on grassroots self-governance, and putting forward concrete suggestions on improving the legal system of self-governance. This book expands the research horizon of and enriches the research results on grassroots democracy and social governance innovation.
2. “State Supervision System and Mechanisms under the People’s Congress System”, Tribune of Political Science and Law, 3 (2018)
This article holds that, under the people’s congress system and the principle governing the activities of state institutions, namely democratic centralism, the supervisory power performs the important modern governance function of “restraining power with power”. The reform of the supervisory system, by integrating supervisory powers and reconstituting the state supervisory system and the constitutional power structure, has developed a dual supervisory system under the people’s congress system in which the supervision over state organs and supervision over civil servants interlink and coordinate with each other while at the same time overlap and restrain each other. Under the “dual” supervisory system and the system of part-time deputies to people’s congresses, the supervision over supervisory committees by people’s congresses should not take the form of simple work reporting by supervisory committees to people’s congresses. Instead, China should adopt a system whereby a supervisory committee submits special work reports to the standing committee of the people’s congress at the same level, while at the same time continuously enriching and innovating the mode of supervision by adopting different supervision mechanisms. This article carries out insightful analysis of the reasonable mode of supervision over supervisory committees by people’s congresses and their standing committees from the perspectives of the theory of representative government and the principle of democratic centralism, which is of important theoretical significance and reference value to the improvement of the state supervisory system and the people’s congress system in China.
3. “Promoting the Building of a community with shared future for mankind through the Development of Human Rights”, Chinese Review of International Law, 3 (2018)
Since 2017, the idea of “building a community with shared future for mankind” has been written into the Report to the Nineteenth National Congress of the CPC, the Constitution of the CPC, the Preamble of the Chinese Constitution, as well as the resolutions of UN General Assembly, UN Security Council and UN Human Rights Council, thereby establishing the “big power diplomatic strategy” and highlighting the great contribution made by China to global governance. The concept, the connotation and the thought of “building a community with shared future for mankind” have been gradually developed by the CPC since its Eighteenth National Congress. However, the ideological resources and the practice of international cooperation go back to ancient times. The originality of this article lies in the following two aspects: firstly, it traces the ideological sources of “building a community with shared future for mankind” back to the common ideological resources of mankind, such as the Confucian idea of “the Great Harmony” in ancient China, the idea of city-state community in ancient Greece, the European theory of Utopian Socialism, the Kantian theory of cosmopolitanism, and the idea of “a community of free individuals” put forward by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in the Communist Manifesto, and reviews the effective practices and limitations of UN and regional human rights bodies and human rights protection systems established after the World War II in protecting fundamental human rights, upholding world peace and constructing the post-war world order. Secondly, it points out that “building a community with shared future for mankind” also takes the joint creation of a better future for mankind as the basic objective and guaranteeing the full realization of human rights as the value basis and concrete approach. More specifically, it means taking the right of existence, the right to development and the right to pursue happiness as the primary human rights and promoting the development of the human rights cause in a new era and the establishment a more attainable, fairer and more just new world order.
