Portrait of 李启成

About the author

Li Qicheng: public information is limited, and his research centers mainly on Chinese legal history and the history of Chinese legal thought. Seven of his works are included in the collection, among them textbooks such as Lecture Notes on Chinese Legal History and History of Chinese Legal Thought, as well as the two volumes of Verbatim Records of the Deliberations of the Zizheng Yuan: A Documentary of Late Qing Preparatory Parliament Debates, A Century of Legal Studies: A History of the Peking University Law School (1904–2004) (Revised Edition), and Foreign Rules and Indigenous Customs: The Modern Transformation of the Jitian Legal System. These works show a combination of teaching materials, source compilation and specialized research, focusing on institutional and conceptual changes in modern legal transformation, and spanning categories such as documentary writing, politics, examinations and law; they are of reference value for understanding late Qing parliamentary debates and modern legal education.
