Introduction to the Research Center for Legal History, East China University of Political Science and Law

The Research Center for Legal History at East China University of Political Science and Law (ECUPL) is a leading research institute established in 2004. Building on ECUPL’s nationally designated key discipline in legal history, the Center brings together research resources from multiple sectors. It currently has 29 faculty members, including 6 doctoral supervisors, 10 professors, 9 associate professors (or associate researchers), and 10 lecturers (or assistant researchers).The Center serves as the headquarters and secretariat for the National Institute for Foreign Legal History, the Society for Confucianism and Legal Culture of China, and the Society for Foreign Law and Comparative Law Studies of the Shanghai Law Society.

The Center is currently directed by Professor YU Ming. It boasts strong research capacity and outstanding achievements. Members of the Center have published over a hundred monographs, edited or co-edited volumes, and translations. They have also contributed nearly thirty papers to top-tier academic journals such as Social Sciences in China, Chinese Journal of Law,Historical Research,China Legal Science, and Peking University Law Journal, along with hundreds of papers in core Chinese journals. The Center has undertaken multiple major projects funded by the National Social Science Foundation of China, as well as other national and provincial-level research projects.The Center currently hosts several academic publications, including Studies on Excavated Documents and Legal History (CSSCI-indexed series), Studies on the Legal History of Foreign Countries, and Studies in Legal History.

The Center’s research covers both Chinese Legal History, Foreign Legal History and Comparative Legal History. In the field of Chinese legal history, the Center has formed a highly coordinated and distinct research team whose work spans from ancient to modern times, and it enjoys broad national influence. Not only has the team made significant contributions to the study of Sui–Tang, Ming–Qing, and modern legal history, but in recent years it has also developed a distinctive focus on the legal history of the Pre-Qin, Qin, and Han periods—particularly research based on excavated legal documents. Its influence now extends beyond the discipline of legal history into bamboo-slip studies and historical philology.Supported by major projects from the National Social Science Foundation, the team systematically collates rich legal-historical materials from oracle bones, bronze inscriptions, and bamboo and wooden slips, thereby providing a solid empirical foundation for exploring the origins and dynamics of Chinese legal civilization. Representative achievements include An Annotated Catalogue of Legal Materials in Oracle Bones, Bronze Inscriptions, and Bamboo Slips and the forthcoming thirteen-volume series Critical Studies on the Origins of Chinese Legal Civilization.

The Center’s research in Foreign Legal History and Comparative Legal History ranks among the best nationwide, characterized by distinctive focus and substantial achievements. It has conducted in-depth studies on Roman Law, the Civil Law System, and the Common Law System, while also engaging in systematic explorations of African Law, East Asian Law, and Indian Law.By analyzing the historical origins, institutional transformations, and intellectual evolution of major legal traditions worldwide, the Center seeks to reveal the pluralistic pathways and internal logic of legal civilization, providing deep historical insight for understanding the contemporary global legal order.In recent years, the Center has successively published several major academic works, including the “History of Legal Civilization” series, the “History of Legal Development in Regions and Countries” series, and A Collection of Selected translation of Legislative Texts of Belt and Road Countries. Strengthening its distinctive orientation in “Regional and Country Law Studies”, the Center focuses on the legal history and contemporary legal practices of countries along the Belt and Road, as well as key trading partners and strategic regions.

The Center is one of China’s earliest institutions to offer a Master’s program in Legal History (since 1981) and among the earlier ones to offer a Doctoral program (since 2001). In recent years, it has successfully hosted multiple annual conferences of the National Institute for Foreign Legal History, the Society for Confucianism and Legal Culture of China, and national symposia on Excavated Documents and Legal History.The Center regularly organizes various academic exchange activities and, building upon its existing achievements, continues to produce new scholarly contributions. It remains committed to advancing the study and dialogue of legal history, consolidating research forces in Shanghai and across China in the fields of foreign law and comparative law, and contributing to the development of legal-historical scholarship and the construction of a socialist rule-of-law state.
