The Status and Role of International Private Law in Implementing Xi Jinping Thought on the Rule of Law: From the Perspective of Coordinating the Promotion of Domestic and Foreign-Related Rule of Law

Xi Jinping Thought on the Rule of Law points out the way for the development of the rule of law in our country, and in the field of international private law, the most important thing is to “promote the domestic rule of law and foreign-related rule of law as a whole”. If international private law wants to apply Xi Jinping Thought on the Rule of Law, it must maintain a decisive status and play an irreplaceable role in “promoting domestic rule of law and foreign-related rule of law as a whole”. In terms of status, international private law plays an important role in promoting the construction of domestic rule of law, plays a core role in promoting the construction of foreign-related rule of law, and occupies a leading status in coordinating the above two. In terms of the role, in the three specific tasks of coordinating the promotion of domestic and foreign-related rule of law, international private law plays different and unique roles: international private law is the builder of foreign-related rule of law system, the builder of China’s great power image and the defender of international rule of law order, and the participant and promoter of China’s global governance. In the future, Chinese international private law will continue to develop, such as the construction of an extraterritorial legal application system, ratification of important international conventions, etc. Therefore, in the context of promoting domestic and foreign-related rule of law, international private law will continue to occupy an important status and play a unique role, to better implement Xi Jinping Thought on the Rule of Law.
