The subject matter of this book is Chinese civil judgments. Judgments, as the final judicial product which affects the legal relationship between both parties or even multiple parties, provide a desirable objects to observe and evaluate the service of judicial proceedings and the protection of the parties’ procedural rights. And since judgments are in most cases regarded as the default termination of any civil litigation, there is no need to argue for a comparative study on this topic which has already inspired Chinese doctrines and newest reforms. One of the aims of such research is to modernize Chinese civil justice considering the experience of leading legal counterparts.
