Overview and General Trend of Sports Law Development in China
In September 2020, the Annual Review on Sports Dispute Resolution in China (2020) was published, as the inaugural chapter dedicated to sport, of the Commercial Dispute Resolution in China: An Annual Review and Preview (hereinafter referred to as the “Annual Review”) under the auspices of the Beijing Arbitration Commission / Beijing International Arbitration Centre (hereinafter referred to as “BAC/BIAC”). Since the Annual Review’s inception in 2013, BAC/BIAC continuously updated foreign colleagues about the latest development of dispute resolution in China, notably by publishing the English version of the Annual Review and holding its signature event i.e., Annual Summit on Dispute Resolution in China over the past seven years. Over the years, BAC/BIAC’s Annual Review series has been increasingly recognised across the globe, as the guidebook for dispute resolution in China, and a window for the international community to learn about China’s arbitration developments. At domestic level, the project goes hand in hand with the internationalisation of the nation’s burgeoning dispute resolution industry.
