    Abstract

    The norm of subjecting State activities to legal control is considered to prevail globally since the 1990s. The current literature is ill updated on regions where legal control of State activities recently started emerging. In China, for example, internal and external review bodies have been playing an increasingly meaningful role in protecting individual rights and regulating public powers following the enactments of administrative litigation law and administrative reconsideration law. To offer a break-down of that under-examined region, I shall examine and explain the normative and implementation aspects of China’s legal control regime. I will conclude with a remark on how it may be improved in the future.
