At the microstructural level, the elements and conditions of criminal procedural rights should be updated to meet the demands of digitization. At the macrostructural level, criminal procedural rights can be categorized horizontally into the right of disposition, the right to an orderly proceeding, and the right to procedural safeguards. Vertically, these rights can be organized into four levels based on their interest elements. The improvement of the structure of criminal procedural rights can be reflected in the regulatory framework, rationally positioning the rights stipulated in the current Criminal Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China and providing guidance for the introduction of emerging rights in the future.展开更多

On this basis, humans shall have the right to claim to live in a healthy environment. In China, the study of environmental rights began in the 1980's. After more than thirty years of discussions on environmental rights, there are a series of environmental rights theories in China. However, scholars have not formed a consensus on some fundamental theories of environmental rights. Moreover, some experts consider that environmental rights include substantive environmental rights and procedural environmental rights, whereas others argue that environmental rights only include substantive environmental rights. Furthermore, the nexus and difference between the right to environment and environmental rights are not clear. "Environmental rights" are treated as a broad concept, its scope includes all rights which are related to the environment. They certainly do not only include substantive, but also procedural environmental rights. Even though the introduction of substantive environmental rights has faced both legislative and practical difficulties, the topic has become a central issue in Chinese academic research.展开更多
