Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Currently, research on environmental safety and environmental protection in China is dominated by scientists of the branch of legal science, but it is difficult to form a holistic point of view on environmental protection to a certain extent within the framework of thinking of the branch of legal science. It is necessary to find a more perfect concept that will replace the concept of “legal system”, and such a concept is the “regulatory system”. The authors introduce a new concept of “environmental protection of the environment” into scientific use. The article shows that in terms of the composition of the regulatory system, environmental protection in modern China has formed a relatively stable three-dimensional regulatory system, that is, a multifaceted regulatory system. The authors reveal the dominant trends in the development of the system of legal regulation of environmental protection and environmental safety in China.
