Xin He argues that institutional constraints to which judges are subject, a factor largely ignored by existing literature, play a crucial role. Twisting the divorce law practices are the bureaucratic incentives of courts and their political concerns for social stability. Because of these concerns, judges often choose the most efficient, and safest, way to handle issues in divorce cases. In so doing, they allow the forces of inequality in social, economic, cultural, and political areas to infiltrate their decisions. Divorce requests are delayed; domestic violence is trivialized; and women's child custody is sacrificed. The institutional failure to enforce the laws has become a major obstacle to gender justice.Divorce in China is the only study of Chinese divorce cases based on fieldwork and interviews conducted inside Chinese courtrooms over the course of a decade. With an unusual vantage point, Xin He offers a rare and unfiltered view of the operation of Chinese courts in the authoritarian regime. Through a socio-legal perspective highlighting the richness, sophistication, and cutting-edge nature of the research, Divorce in China is as much an account of Chinese courts in action as a social ethnography of China in the midst of momentous social change. 606 $aDivorce$zChina 606 $aDivorce$xLaw and legislation$zChina 610 $aBalanced approaches. 610 $aBargaining Chips. 610 $aChild Custody. 610 $aChinese Courts. 610 $aCourtroom discourse. 610 $aCultural biases. 610 $aDivorce law in China. 610 $aDivorce trial process. 610 $aDomestic violence. 610 $aEfficiency concerns. 610 $aEpilogue. 610 $aGender Inequality. 610 $aGendered Divorces. 610 $aHighly-contested cases. 610 $aImplications. 610 $aInstitutional Constraints. 610 $aJudges? incentives. 610 $aJudicial Decision Making. 610 $aJudicial inaction. 610 $aJudicial power in authoritarian regimes. 610 $aProperty division. 610 $aRegular cases. 610 $aResource disparity. 610 $aRoutinized approaches. 610 $aSex-related issues. 610 $aStability concerns. 610 $aThe Protection Order. 610 $aThe bidding process. 610 $aThe pragmatic judge. 610 $aTrivialization. 615 0$aDivorce 615 0$aDivorce$xLaw and legislation 676 $a346.510166 700 $aHe$b Xin$01072777 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910554245103321 996 $aDivorce in China$92820167 997 $aUNINA
