This seminar series builds upon the success of the Chinese Customary Law Seminar Series conducted from 2014 to 2016 covering topics such as Chinese Customary Land Law, Chinese Customary Family Law and Customary Trusts in Hong Kong. The Greater China Legal History Seminar Series aims to serve as a forum to discuss the historical development of a great variety of legal issues of interest in the Greater China region. Acknowledging that the historical development is the basis of modern law and its application the seminars offer the opportunity to explore the respective contextual status. While being conducted by experts in their fields, the seminars are meant to cater to the legally interested general public. The events will usually comprise presentations by one or more speakers (up to 70 minutes) followed by a Q&amp;A session (up to 30 minutes). Each Seminar is open and free of charge to all who are interested.<\/p><p>Anyone interested in contributing to the seminar series, please contact the organizers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cuhk.edu.hk\/app\/people\/prof-lutz-christian-wolff-3\/\">Professor Lutz-Christian Wolff<\/a>, <span>Dean of the Faculty of Law <\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'arial';\">&amp;<\/span><span> Wei Lun Professor of Law<\/span> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cuhk.edu.hk\/app\/people\/prof-steven-gallagher\/\">Professor Steven Gallagher<\/a>, Associate Dean (Academic and Student Affairs).<\/p><p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d391288\" data-id=\"d391288\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1bd4fb1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"1bd4fb1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/youtu.be\\\/kYOsDWfyGwQ&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-62866075 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"62866075\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-71a59201\" data-id=\"71a59201\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e919051 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6e919051\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div align=\"center\"><div align=\"center\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">\u00a0Seminar <\/span><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">Schedule 2023-24<\/span><\/strong><\/div><div align=\"center\"><\/div><table><tbody><tr><th width=\"145\"><span style=\"color: b51717; font-size: medium;\">Date<\/span><\/th><th><span style=\"color: b51717; font-size: medium;\">Details<\/span><\/th><\/tr><tr><td>22 September 2023<br \/>12:30-2:00 pm<\/td><td><p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cuhk.edu.hk\/app\/greater-china-legal-history-seminar-series-pirates-and-the-hong-kong-admiralty-court-of-1847-49-by-ms-sasha-allison-online\/\">Pirates and the Hong Kong Admiralty Court of 1847-49<\/a><br \/><\/b>Speaker: Ms. Sasha Allison, Barrister at Law, Central Chambers, Hong Kong<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>6 October 2023<br \/>12:30-2:00 pm<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cuhk.edu.hk\/app\/greater-china-legal-history-seminar-series-death-sentences-in-the-great-qing-1744-1840-by-prof-moulin-xiong-online\/\"><strong><span>Death Sentences in the Great Qing, 1744-1840<\/span><\/strong><\/a><br \/>Speaker: Prof. Moulin Xiong, Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, <span class=\"LrzXr\">Sichuan<\/span>, China<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3 November 2023<br \/>12:30-2:00 pm<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cuhk.edu.hk\/app\/greater-china-legal-history-seminar-series-contracts-as-tools-to-promote-morality-and-social-order-the-tang-dynastys-regulation-of-contractual-relationships-by-pr\/\"><strong>Contracts as Tools to Promote Morality and Social Order during the Tang Dynasty<\/strong><\/a><br \/>Speaker: Prof. Chunlin Leonhard, Loyola University New Orleans College of Law<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>12 January 2024<br \/>12:30-2:00 pm<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cuhk.edu.hk\/app\/greater-china-legal-history-seminar-series-chinese-customary-marriages-and-concubinage-in-hong-kong-by-prof-steven-gallagher-online\/\"><strong>Fengshui and Court Practice in Ming and Qing<\/strong><\/a><br \/>Speaker: Prof. Ian M.
