21世纪以来,经济全球化蓬勃兴起,而随着我国加入世贸组织,我国正在融人经济全球化的大环境之中;同时,我国改革开放也经过了30余年,国内的形势正在发生着新的变化。这样一来,就不可避免产生一系列新的法律问题,也给国内的法学教育提出了新的课题,对法学教材也提出了更高的要求。
鉴于此,我们延请中国政法大学、对外经济贸易大学、中国人民大学、**财经大学、复旦大学、上海交通大学、西南政法大学、武汉大学、华中师范大学、厦门大学、西北政法大学等众多知名学府的权威学者,并联合实务界人士,共同推出一套高等院校法学专业**系列丛书。这套丛书,可以作为法学研究生的教材,也可以作为法学本科生(高年级)的深度阅读图书;同时对于法学界实务工作者而言,也有很大的参考价值。
本套丛书,在精简基本知识内容的基础上,对**内容及其*新发展进行了极大的丰富与深化,并在一定程度上打破教材只阐述通说的常规;在知识结构安排上,更加完善,并具有前瞻性和系统性。其每本书中都包含着诸多新的观点及引发思考的提示,并融人相关的现实案例,有助于读者扩大知识视野,提高对知识理解的深度,拓宽思考现实问题的广度,从而形成自己的法学知识架构,
