Corollary of the doctrine of the separation of powers and pillar of the rule of law, the principle of the independence of the judiciary is of great importance, especially in the Western legal tradition. Her analysis, focused on China, cannot be separated from an understanding of the reality in which it must be applied, from the knowledge of the legal class, the relations between the powers of the state and the history of the Communist Party.
