Overview

This book offers a captivating framework for comprehending how legal frameworks can successfully encourage and protect development in our rapidly changing global environment. The book centers its argument around the concept of the “development-oriented rule of law,” examining how this framework addresses the complex challenges arising from marketization, informatization, and globalization. The author methodically analyzes how development rights are apportioned and how burdens are realigned among national and local governments, market entities, and citizens. Employing a comprehensive approach, the author combines philosophical, general scientific, and specialized scientific methods to examine these critical issues. With its focus on economic development, regulation, and the rule of economic law, the book offers accessible insights into the practical applications of development-oriented legal frameworks. This makes it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the intersection of law and economic development. This title will appeal to academics, students, legal practitioners, and policymakers interested in economic law, development law, and development studies.
