Wenhua Shan; Qianfan Zhang; Xin Zhang, SKU sku-536642681. This hardcover Commercial Law Books title, China and International Economic Law: Legal Framework of Eu-China Investment Relations: A Critical Appraisal, examines the laws governing EU investment in China.

It describes a rise in EU investment since the early 1990s and considers the prospect of further growth following China's accession to the World Trade Organization. The authors assess Chinese law, EU law and applicable international law.

They describe Chinese law as difficult to find and unsystematic, the EU's shared external investment competence as vaguely defined, and relevant treaties as incomplete, inconsistent, too general or too specialized. The book also discusses limited access to international investment dispute forums and concerns about enforcement of Chinese court and arbitration decisions.

It argues that a new international legal framework for foreign investment in China is both needed and possible as EU-China economic and political relations improve.
