Hybrid Workshop: Law and Social Credit in China (19 September 2022) University of Cologne

 


We would like to invite you to join the upcoming workshop on Law and Social Credit in China at the University of Cologne on Monday, 19 September 2022.

 

Please note the details on the attached poster. This will be a hybrid event. Kindly register your participation with Marianne von Blomberg at: m.vonblomberg@uni-koeln.de by 9 September 2022. This from the event concept note:

Social Credit is a form of governance that collects and rates behavioral data  on societal and state actors according to various categories. It incentivizes certain behaviors by rewarding or sanctioning actors according to their trustworthiness records. The Chinese Party-State has embraced credit based regulation as a comprehensive approach for a wide range of societal problems and uses it to enhance its governance capacity. Social credit has a multi-faceted relationship with law as a traditional form of regulation. The Social Credit System (SCS) reflects changes in the regulatory priorities and approaches in China and, at the same time, implies a fundamental transformation of the compliance with legal rules and the enforcement of the law as well as a profound alteration of the forms and functions of law itself.
