LI Qingming
I.Basic Information
LI Qingming is a research fellow and the deputy head of the Department of Private International Law, Institute of International Law, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and a part-time editor of the Chinese Review of International Law.
He graduated from the Law School of Wuhan University with a Bachelor of Law in 2004, a LL.M. in 2006 and a Ph.D. in Law in 2009. He was a visiting scholar at Colombia Law School from September 2010 to September 2011. His main research areas are private international law, international civil litigation and commercial arbitration, focusing on jurisdiciton and state immunity. He published two monographs, one of which is THE THEORY AND PRACTICE OF FOREIGN SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY OF THE UNITED STATES (People's Daily Press, 2021), and the other is A STUDY OF THE ALIEN TORT CLAIMS ACT OF U.S.A.(Wuhan University Press, 2010). He is the translator of the book THE NEW ROLE OF COMITY IN PRIVATE PROCEDURAL INTERNATIONAL LAW (China Social Sciences Press, 2011). He has published over 30 articles and notes in various Chinese and foreign academic journals.
II. Main Academic Viewpoints
Professor LI is the first Chinese scholar who has systematically studied international human rights civil litigation in the United States of America. In the book A STUDY OF THE ALIEN TORT CLAIMS ACT OF U.S.A., he expressed the following opinions: (1) the revival of the ATCA in 1980s was closely related to the upsurge of the civil rights movement in the United States, as well as the explosion of international civil litigation. (2) The jurisdiction of the ATCA is not the universal civil jurisdiction, but exercised according to the domestic law of the United States, and the cases are actually associated with the United States. (3) After the plaintiffs have brought the civil action according to the ATCA, the defendant may put forward many defenses such as forum non conveniens, exhaustion of local remedy, state immunity, the acts of state doctrine, international comity, the political question doctrine, and thus many cases are dismissed. (4) The practice of holding individuals accountable for their conductsof violation of international law has not been generally accepted by nations except the United States. The prosperity of the alien tort litigation in the United States is rooted in the United States’ unique legal system, and it is difficult for other countries to transplant, copy and use for reference.
He has published a book and 9 articles on state immunity. He published the monograph THE THEORY AND PRACTICE OF FOREIGN SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY OF THE UNITED STATES, introducing and reviewing the interaction between the U.S.A. and other states on the state immunity. He reviewes the sovereign immunitiescases against China in the United States courts, and analyzes the measures and tools to deal with those cases. Subject to the broad definition of “foreign state” in the FSIA and judicial precedents, foreign state and “political subdivision of a foreign state” include China’s central government and its directly subordinate authorities, diplomatic missions and local governments, and an agency or instrumentality of a foreign state includes any public institution such as the Chinese Academy of Sciences directly administered under the State Council, and State-owned Enterprises directly owned by the State Council (including SASAC), and under certain conditions, an organ of a foreign state or political subdivision including any public institution that is not directly administered under the government but functions mainly for public career such as science, education, culture and public health may claim sovereign immunity. However, whether a foreign state will be immune from suits depends on whether the disputed acts fall within 28 U.S. Code § 1605 and §1610. China adheres to absolute immunity of states and ignores all frivolous or malicious cases without any factual or legal basis. China urges the U.S. Department of State to file statements of interest to the United States courts to argue for China on the invalid service, dismissal of the cases and non execution of the judgments and orders. The Ministry of Justice of the People's Republic of China refuses to assist the United States courts in serving judicial documents that infringe on China’s sovereignty, and the central government and local governments of China will decide whether to appear in court to challenge the jurisdiction of the United States courts or even the substantive issues of the cases if necessary after being served by the U.S. Department of State. Due to the complexity and sensitivity of foreign sovereign immunities cases, and the obligation of the United States courts to proactively review whether they have jurisdiction over the case ex officio, Chinese and foreign scholars and non-governmental organizations may apply to the United States courts for submission of Amici Curiae Briefs, which helps the United States courts find that the case shall be dismissed on the ground of lack of jurisdiction. If the United States court makes a default judgment against China without regard to China’s opposition, China may refuse to recognize and enforce the default judgment.
He also argues that the right of access to court may be limited by the principle of state immunity. The purpose of state immunity granted to foreign countries to limit the right of access to the court is legitimate and in compliance with international law. As to the principle of proportionality, the restrictive rules in the U.N. Convention on Jurisdictional Immunities of States and Their Property is playing an increasingly important role, especially in cases involving employment contract, personal injury, the protection of the complainant's right to access to court, in which it is necessary to limit the invocation of state exemption. The decisions of the European Court of Human Rights have a profound impact on State parties' domestic law and practice, which in turn influence the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights, and the relationship between right of access to court and state immunity may change and develop in the future. Of course, as to the relationship between jus cogens and state immunity, the European Court of Human Rights tends to recognize that the granting of state immunity by State parties' domestic courts to foreign states does not violate the principle of proportionality or article 6(1) of the European Convention on Human Rights.
He argues that China shall take such measures to cope with the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the United States as follows: cooperate with other countries to oppose the practice of exorbitant extraterritorial jurisdiction of the United States; assist enterprises and individuals who are the targets of extraterritorial jurisdiction of the United States to argue the cases; improve and perfect foreign relations law of China, especially the jurisdiction legislation, international judicial cooperation system and blocking statutes.
He argues that using the extraterritorial civil judgments as evidence does not harm the sovereignty of China, nor does it bring injustice to the parties. On the contrary, it contributes to increasing judicial efficiency, saving judicial resources and reducing unnecessary conflicts of judgments. The parties who have applied to use extraterritorial civil judgments as evidence should prove the authenticity and validity of the judgments, and the other party may also put forward other facts and evidences to refute the facts established by the judgments. Chinesecourts should not regard the facts established by extraterritorial civil judgments as proof of facts without evidence, but just a kind of evidence, and should make the judgment for the case in question based on the whole facts and forum’s law.
He has published an article on international commercial arbitration, in which he argues that an award made by an overseas arbitration institution which administers the arbitration in the Mainland of China is not a "non-domestic award". The problems of how to support and supervise such arbitration and by what criteria to determine the recognition and enforcement of the award are still to be solved. The fact that parties from the Mainland of China are increasingly participating in overseas arbitration, coupled with the need to develop the foreign-related legal service industry and to promote the international and public credibility of China's arbitration, necessitates the permission of overseas arbitration institutions to administer arbitration in the Mainland of China. It is thus imperative that the "Arbitration Law of the People's Republic of China" be revised to stipulate that the nationality of the arbitration award is to be determined by the seat of arbitration, and to treat any arbitration seated in the Mainland of China equally, be it under the administration of overseas arbitration institutions or arbitration commissions established under the Arbitration Law of the People's Republic of China.
