Socialist law

 

Until recently, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (the USSR) and some other countries proclaimed that socialism was producing an entirely new form of law, not to be judged by or even (A). This view was said to be the scientific conclusion of a Marxist analysis. The elimination of the USSR as a state was followed by collapse of the newly build legal system at the end of the 20th century.

The pre-Cultural Revolution legal structure has been partly resurrected, and a legal framework of codes enacted. The Basic Principles of Civil Law contain many provisions that would be familiar to Western jurists. The actual functioning of the system, however, is affected by the persistent attitude (G) to the decisions of central and local political authorities.
