Year: 2020
Type: preprint
Abstract: On April 28, China’s national legislature adopted the highly controversial Law on the Management of Domestic Activities of Overseas Nongovernmental
Organizations, also known as its overseas NGO law. The enactment of the law, which has been in the works for over a year, sets the stage for months of anxiety and jockeying as thousands of foreign, Hong Kong, and Taiwanese NGOs, foundations, universities, trade associations, and other nonprofits try to divine how new restrictive rules on registration and operations will affect their work in mainland China.
