The article is devoted to the legal aspects of improving VAT in the People’s Republic of China. In fact, this is the first attempt to comprehensively study the VAT law, which has passed a nationwide discussion and is awaiting adoption by the highest government body of the PRC. Changes in national taxation models in the face of increasing turbulence in the global economy highlight the topic of this work, since taking into account the main trends in the legal regulation of value added taxation of the world’s largest VAT economy is important for understanding the possibilities for developing such a system in the Russian Federation. The subject of research is the transformation of regulatory legal regulation of taxation in the PRC on the basis of progressive improvement of tax legislation. As the immediate practical tasks to be solved by the country’s leadership in this sphere of public relations, the reduction of the tax burden of the economy and the re-registration of tax law institutions were noted. The research methodology is based on the use of system analysis and dialectic techniques. The studied financial and legal object is considered as a structurally designed description of a complex dynamic system in its movement and development. In the framework of comparative law, an attempt was made to identify the basic laws of the legal evolution of the normative regulation of VAT. Attention is drawn to the fact that the main characteristics of the new Chinese VAT correspond to the system of conceptual principles put forward by the OECD, among which the leading role is played by the principle of neutrality of this type of taxation. In the final part of the work, conclusions are drawn that the proposed tax law of the PRC has a two-level structure, including a wide range of reference norms and by-laws. At the same time, comprehensive measures undertaken by the leadership of the People’s Republic of China in the field of legal regulation of VAT strengthen the country’s socio-economic development opportunities, stimulating entrepreneurs to expand their production.

Value-added taxation is a multidimensional theoretical, fiscal and legal structure. It also serves as a tool for the practical transformation of political, legal and socio-economic relations. The objective of the research is to study new concepts of value-added taxation formed in the two largest BRICS economies (the People’s Republic of China and the Republic of India). The assumption is that not only “European” model of the legal regulation of VAT can be successful, but alternatively “Chinese” and “Indian models.” The author examines and evaluates changes in the legal structure of value added tax in general, and its elements focusing on the current stage of legal regulation of national systems of VAT (GST) in China and India. In addition, the political, legal, social and economic effects of the legal mechanism of VAT (GST) in China and India from 2017 to 2020 are demonstrated.

This article examines the normative legal framework and principles of functionality of the Social Credit System that is currently being implemented in the People's Republic of China. For the first time in legal science, the Social Credit System is viewed not as an organizational and regulatory technique that in one or another way is related to law, but rather as an independent legal institution relevant to the branch of administrative law. The application of formal-legal and comparative-legal methods allows describing the hierarchy of sources of the Chinese law pertaining to social credit mechanisms and procedures, as well as giving characteristics to major provisions of the corresponding normative acts. The peculiarities of legal regulation of the mechanisms and procedures that comprise the Social Credit System in PRC include the following aspects: sublegislative nature of such regulation, prevalence of joint lawmaking, focal role of normative legal acts of the Chinese government, declarative character and ambiguity of multiple legal provisions with regards to the Social Credit System. The author underline the specificity of interpretation of the normative legal acts of the People's Republic of China, usage by the lawmaking branches of moral categories in formulation of provisions for regulation of elaboration and implementation of the social credit mechanisms. The provisions of governmental and departmental normative legal acts pertaining to the Social Credit System are correlated with the provisions of the current Constitution of the People's Republic of China.

Principle Of Legality

The article looks into the evolution of the concept of “the principles of criminal law” in the legislation of the People’s Republic of China during the second half of the twentieth century. The principles of law are recognized as the normative foundations of law, which determine the general scope, main peculiarities and the most significant features of legal regulation. The article studies a number of definitions offered by some Chinese scientists who dealt with the theoretical and legal problems. The People’s Republic of China was created on October 1, 1949 against the background of destroyed economy, demoralized society, prevailing chaos and the unstructured nature of public authorities. In that period, no codified criminal law was in place. Some criminal acts of that time showed that any fundamental principles were included in the system of criminal legislation either. The first Criminal Code of the People’s Republic of China of 1979 did not mention any principles of law, whereas the Criminal Code of 1997 provided for three fundamental principles, which became the subject of our analysis. These are the principle of legality, also known as the principle of no punishment for doing something that is not prohibited by law (nullum crimen, nullum točka sine lege), the principle of equality of citizens before the law, the principle of conformity of criminal-legal measures to the nature and circumstances of crime. It is these principles that have been reflected in the current criminal code. Despite the amendments of criminal law introduced over the last few decades, the principles of law have remained unchanged. The conclusion to the publication makes a suggestion to introduce the general principle of humanism into in the General Provisions of the Criminal Code of China. The scholar believes that this principle should be recognized as the key principle of the criminal law of China, and will aim to ensure the democratic nature of Chinese criminal law.

The article deals with the history of the development of the budget legislation of the People’s Republic of China from its inception to the present day. The author on the basis of the study of domestic and foreign literature of legal, economic, historical nature traces the main trends in the development of legal regulation in this area, defines the features of the budget system of China at different stages of its functioning, the specifics of legal regulation. Much attention of the Chinese legislator remains for such issues as the formation and spending of extrabudgetary funds, the implementation of transfer payments from the Central budget to local budgets, ensuring the openness and transparency of the budget system of China. A special place in this regard is occupied by the formation and improvement of the structure of the budget system of the PRC, consisting of various types of budgets. Until now, many issues remain unresolved, in particular, the legal provision of effective control over the expenditure of public finance, ensuring the effectiveness and efficiency of spending, treasury budget execution. The successful nature of China’s economic development in recent decades, as well as the related problems PRC faces, have made it necessary to establish special rules in the Budget law aimed at regulating public debts, primarily by local governments, rules for public procurement, specific offences and measures of legal responsibility for violation of the relevant statutes. The distinctive features of the budget legal regulation of the People’s Republic of China is that there is no budget code; there is the predominant share of by-laws adopted by the Central and local governments, ministries, departments; there are lot of pilot projects before the introduction of new norms in the territory of the whole state. The article is accompanied by a translation from Chinese into Russian of the text of the current Budget Law of the People’s Republic of China.

Paid loot boxes provide randomised rewards in video games; their use is linked to disordered gambling and they are present in approximately half of UK video games. The relative novelty of loot boxes means that regulators and policymakers in various jurisdictions are still deciding how to regulate them. The People’s Republic of China (PRC) is the first and only jurisdiction to legally require video game companies to disclose the probabilities of obtaining randomised loot box rewards—an approach that is also favoured by the video games industry as self-regulation. This study is the first to assess loot box prevalence in the PRC and video game companies’ discretionary interpretations of the probability disclosure regulation. Loot boxes were found in 91 of the 100 most-popular PRC iPhone games, and 90.5% of games deemed suitable for children aged 12+ contained loot boxes. For games containing loot boxes, disclosure statements could not be found for 4.4% of games. Loot box probability disclosures were implemented through various means, but only five games used the most prominent disclosure format. Legal regulation and/or self-regulation of loot box probability disclosures should require uniform and prominent disclosures to best help inform consumers.
