HKU's Centre for Chinese Law Launches New Website

We are delighted to announce the launch of the new website for the Centre for Chinese Law (CCL) of the HKU Faculty of Law: www.ccl.law.hku.hk. 

     In addition to providing a more user-friendly interface, the new website introduces new functions to provide useful information for those who are interested in Chinese law research. Visitors will find publications of HKU Law Faculty members in six cutting-edge areas of Chinese law research: ‘China and International Law’, ‘Hong Kong Law’, ‘IP & IT’, ‘Law/Development/Society in China’, ‘Legal History & Philosophy’, and ‘Mediation & Arbitration’. 

      The site hosts databases for four long-term projects (‘Anti-Domestic Violence in China’, ‘Equal Rights in China’, ‘Death Penalty in China’, and ‘Legal History’), plus ‘External Links’ to other useful resources in Chinese law research.  To reach out to the greater China area, our new site contains integrated buttons for two social media platforms in mainland China: ‘the CCL’ weixin public account and the ‘HKUCCL’ weibo account. The website also contains information on major Chinese law academic conferences and events in the greater China area to encourage interactions among academic communities in and outside the region. 

     We hope this new site and our social media platforms will serve as an important on-line hub for researchers in Chinese law research. You are most welcome to join our mailing list by using the subscription function at the bottom of the web page.

     For any questions or feedback, please e-mail us at: shelbyc@hku.hk. We wish you all a Happy Chinese New Year!

HKU Law Faculty Launches New Website on Research Integrity

The University of Hong Kong adopts the highest standards of research integrity for its staff and students. The Faculty of Law is pleased to announce the launch of a new website to guide users on the rules, procedures and questions related to research integrity in the law school context. The website has many short articles on the principles of research integrity, good research practices and research misconduct. It also features case studies and video recordings of trainers who have spoken at the University of Hong Kong. The website will serve as a valuable resource for staff and students who are applying for research ethics approval or seeking guidance on important topics in research integrity such as accountability, honesty, objectivity, openness, due diligence, fairness in giving credit and nurturing students and early-career research colleagues. The website can be accessed at http://www.law.hku.hk/researchintegrity/.
