Abstract

Chinese traditional legal culture and legal system are self organized. The reason is that the concept of etiquette plays an immeasurable impact on the development of China's legal system. In today’s China, such influences still work. They promote or suppress the process of building a modern nation ruled by law. If traditional and modern relationship cannot be correctly handled, the contemporary China will face major legislative and enforcement problems.
