Ownership of Trust Property in China

A Comparative and Social Capital Perspective

By: Zhen Meng

This book presents a hotly debated issue concerning the ownership of trust property in China. The book describes various conventional interpretations of Chinese Trust Law submitted by legal scholars and compares diverse approaches regarding the ownership of trust property provided by jurisdictions globally. The book does not directly answer the question “Who is the owner of trust property in China?” Instead, using a social capital perspective, it develops a more practical perspective to explain why Chinese trust business has grown rapidly even in lack of legal certainty regarding the location of ownership of trust property. The book also further predicts under what conditions is the time ripe to clarify the location of the ownership of trust property in China. By employing those sociological concepts often used to depict and analyze society, this book outlines the structure of the Chinese trust business and related social relations in different stages, i.e., the current rapid development stage, and the possible transitional stage in the near future. The focus is on how the social network structure affects the behavior of actors (such as the settlor, the trustee, and the beneficiaries, and/or their potential candidates) within the relevant section of Chinese society. The book provides readers with an intensive analysis of the impacts of historical, cultural, and social elements on the legislation and development of trust law in China. It will appeal both to lawyers interested in the Chinese trust business and to comparative law researchers and social scientists.

Public Private Partnership for Desertification Control in Inner Mongolia

By: Zhongju Meng,Xiaohong Dang,Yong Gao

In terms of China’s current situation, the prevention and control of land degradation and the development of innovative sustainable land management activities lie within the purview of public works. Further, public-private partnerships (PPPs) hold considerable potential for application in this field. Inner Mongolia is one of the Chinese provinces hardest hit by land degradation. Fortunately, after years of dedicated efforts, meaningful achievements have been made: the increasing participation of the people as a whole, combined with growing investments in land degradation prevention and ecological construction on the part of private enterprises, has to some extent compensated for the lack of government involvement. Further, Inner Mongolia has been a pioneer in the use of PPPs for the prevention and control of land degradation, which has yielded numerous ecological, social and economic benefits. To better promote the development of ecological construction and expand the participation in land degradation control, this book systematically studies the use of PPPs in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region, drawing on field investigations and case analyses to do so. Its main goal is to explore a public-private partnership model that can effectively expand the scale of investment in land degradation prevention and sustainable land management.

Fault in Homicide

Towards a Schematic Approach to the Fault Elements for Murder and Involuntary Manslaughter in England, Australia and India

By: Stanley Meng Heong Yeo

Yeo's work examines the laws of England, Australia and India pertaining to the fault elements required for the crimes of murder and manslaughter. It contends that the Indian laws are superior and suggests a set of draft provisions which could comprise a viable model for reform of the English and Australian laws. The work is directly relevant to issues being considered in the development of the Model Criminal Code.

Patentism Replacing Capitalism

A Prediction from Logical Economics

By: Samuel Meng

Based on economic knowledge and logical reasoning, this book proposes a solution to economic recessions and offers a route for societal change to end capitalism. The author starts with a brief review of the history of economics, and then questions and rejects the trend of recent decades that has seen econometrics replace economic theory. By reviewing the different schools of economic thought and by examining the limitations of existing theories to business cycles and economic growth, the author forms a new theory to explain cyclic economic growth. According to this theory, economic recessions result from innovation scarcity, which in turn results from the flawed design of the patent system. The author suggests a new design for the patent system and envisions that the new design would bring about large economic and societal changes. Under this new patent system, the synergy of the patent and capital markets would ensure that economic recessions could be avoided and that the economy would grow at the highest speed.

Shattered Spaces

Shattered Spaces

By: Michael Meng

After the Holocaust, the empty, silent spaces of bombed-out synagogues, cemeteries, and Jewish districts were all that was left in many German and Polish cities with prewar histories rich in the sights and sounds of Jewish life. What happened to this scarred landscape after the war, and how have Germans, Poles, and Jews encountered these ruins over the past sixty years? In the postwar period, city officials swept away many sites, despite protests from Jewish leaders. But in the late 1970s church groups, local residents, political dissidents, and tourists demanded the preservation of the few ruins still standing. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989, this desire to preserve and restore has grown stronger. In one of the most striking and little-studied shifts in postwar European history, the traces of a long-neglected Jewish past have gradually been recovered, thanks to the rise of heritage tourism, nostalgia for ruins, international discussions about the Holocaust, and a pervasive longing for cosmopolitanism in a globalizing world. Examining this transformation from both sides of the Iron Curtain, Michael Meng finds no divided memory along West-East lines, but rather a shared memory of tensions and paradoxes that crosses borders throughout Central Europe. His narrative reveals the changing dynamics of the local and the transnational, as Germans, Poles, Americans, and Israelis confront a built environment that is inevitably altered with the passage of time. Shattered Spaces exemplifies urban history at its best, uncovering a surprising and moving postwar story of broad contemporary interest.

Tiny Quantum, Giant Revolution

By: Ching-ray Chang,Meng-chien Wang

The first industrial revolution was accompanied by the emergence of the School of Engineering, the second brought about the School of Electrical Engineering, and the third digital revolution led to the School of Information. It is now obvious that the change in this quantum revolution must lead to the emergence of the School of Quantum Science and Technology. Quantum technology can develop comprehensively through the integration of science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics (STEAM). In 1925, Heisenberg developed the Matrix Mechanics, cracking the mysteries of the Quantum world. Coinciding with the 100th anniversary of Matrix Mechanics, in 2024, the General Assembly of the United Nations proclaimed 2025 the 'International Year of Quantum Science and Technology,' along with a year-long initiative celebrating the profound impacts of quantum science on technology, culture, and our understanding of the natural world.This book outlines the importance of the 'Second Quantum Revolution,' introduces quantum computers, quantum communications, and quantum sensors, and then provides a framework for the emergence of the quantum Internet of Things. What basic quantum literacy should modern citizens have in this era? The 'Second Quantum Revolution,' where quantum knowledge and engineering technology are once again combined, will provide faster, more effective, and more sensitive quantum facilities to accelerate cross-field exploration, and will also make human life more comfortable and convenient than ever before.In the 'First Quantum Revolution' in the 20th century, humans learned quantum science from nature and used existing materials to make quantum components. In the 'Second Quantum Revolution' in the 21st century, humans further used quantum science to construct quantum engineering. We now make materials and components that are not found in nature and assemble new quantum machines to benefit mankind! This is the stage of a glorious quantum era, which is a hundred times more brilliant than the past classical physics era.

State Immunity and International Investment Law

By: Zixin Meng

State Immunity and International Investment Law

By: Zixin Meng

The book provides a sophisticated analysis of state immunity from an enforcement perspective. It covers all relevant legal techniques of enforcing an arbitral award against a sovereign state. Besides tackling the plea of state immunity through the courts, this book also covers notable non-judicial remedial measures which may aid the aggrieved investors in satisfying their claims against state parties to a dispute. These measures may be used either to enhance the effectiveness of judicial remedies or as stand-alone remedies when legal measures seem (or prove to be) ineffective. After having identified problems arising from a lack of universal agreement on state immunity and the diversity and, more dishearteningly, the inadequacy of forms of enforcement available to an aggrieved claimant, this book proposes a new approach to solve state immunity issues. The international community must work towards the setting up of a central enforcement agency, a functional model of enforcement.

Little Gods

A Novel

By: Meng Jin

LONGLISTED FOR THE PEN/OPEN BOOK AWARD “Compellingly complex…Expands the future of the immigrant novel even as it holds us in uneasy thrall to the past.” – Gish Jen, New York Times Book Review Combining the emotional resonance of Home Fire with the ambition and innovation of Asymmetry, a lyrical and thought-provoking debut novel that explores the complex web of grief, memory, time, physics, history, and selfhood in the immigrant experience, and the complicated bond between daughters and mothers. On the night of June Fourth, a woman gives birth in a Beijing hospital alone. Thus begins the unraveling of Su Lan, a brilliant physicist who until this moment has successfully erased her past, fighting what she calls the mind’s arrow of time. When Su Lan dies unexpectedly seventeen years later, it is her daughter Liya who inherits the silences and contradictions of her life. Liya, who grew up in America, takes her mother’s ashes to China—to her, an unknown country. In a territory inhabited by the ghosts of the living and the dead, Liya’s memories are joined by those of two others: Zhu Wen, the woman last to know Su Lan before she left China, and Yongzong, the father Liya has never known. In this way a portrait of Su Lan emerges: an ambitious scientist, an ambivalent mother, and a woman whose relationship to her own past shapes and ultimately unmakes Liya’s own sense of displacement. A story of migrations literal and emotional, spanning time, space and class, Little Gods is a sharp yet expansive exploration of the aftermath of unfulfilled dreams, an immigrant story in negative that grapples with our tenuous connections to memory, history, and self.
