This overview and analysis of current arbitration law and practice in mainland China offers critical analysis of significant Chinese arbitration law materials and key cases decided by the Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of China (PRC). It also provides the full texts of around two hundred decisions of the Supreme People's Court of the PRC dating from 1990 to 2013, with enclosures of lower People's Courts' decisions presented in a systematic fashion. The analysis not only highlights the importance of the materials, judicial interpretations and key cases, but also enables readers to read mainland Chinese statutes, judiciary interpretations and cases independently and confidently.

'This work is a valuable contribution to the growing body of literature chronicling international arbitration law and practice in China. The extensive translations, explanations and discussion of over two decades’ worth of SPC decisions will remain a valuable resource for arbitrators practising in China or under PRC law. I have no hesitation in recommending this text.'
