Biography
The Chinese legislation on sex crimes is different from that of Western countries, with regards to, for instance, the gender-specific approach and the legal definition of sexual behavior.
Research Interest
This kind of legislation rests on a particular cultural and traditional background, but is it in line with the modern conception of sexual violence and sexual autonomy? Through comparative study, legal analysis, literature research and empirical study, I will try to explore why the Chinese legislator adopted such legislation and the pros and cons of this approach. Finally I will provide some recommendations.
