This book provides readers with an examination of Chinese international investment law-both inside and outside, both retrospective and prospective, both descriptive and constructive. Chinese investment law has been widely recognized as having increasing implications on international investment law as a whole, though it is too early to draw a definite conclusion as to the extent and nature of such implications. In some sense, it is this uncertainty that endows this book with a fantastic reading value. - ICSID Review

It will be of use to students, academics, and practitioners alike in explaining China’s evolving participation in the international investment legal regime and likely future developments.” - Kate Apostolova and Lexi Menish, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer
