Abstract
AbstractForeign investments in China are always conducted against a multi-jurisdictional background. The question of which law is governing the different aspects of foreign investment projects in China is therefore of tremendous theoretical and practical significance. Surprisingly, there is no comprehensive study of China’s private international law regime and the practical application of related rules in the context of investment projects. This article attempts to fill the gap with an emphasis on legislative developments in recent times. It also explores how legal practice has responded or may respond to China’s private international law regime, e.g., by trying to “contract out” Chinese law or to circumvent China’s often rather restrictive laws and regulations governing foreign investments.
