About Us
The International Society for Chinese Law and History (ISCLH) was formed on January 1, 2014, after several years of consultation and careful preparation.
The Society has been established to promote more regular exchanges of ideas and fruitful collaboration among all scholars across the world who are interested in better understanding Chinese law and society from historical and comparative perspectives. We plan to organize a series of workshops, international conferences, and publication projects on a regular basis. Our Society has grown rapidly and our registered members now include almost 140 researchers from more than ten different countries in multiple continents.
If you are interested in joining the ISCLH, please visit the Membership page or contact the ISCLH Secretary or President (listed on the Governance page). We look forward to your participation and support!
