Abstract

The promulgation of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China has aroused widespread concern in Chinese society. The fundamental reason is that the Civil Code is a law for the benefit of the people. As President Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized on important occasions, the Civil Code is important for upholding and developing people-centered ideas. It is of great significance to protect the rights and interests of the people. The formulation of laws must adhere to scientific theoretical guidance, must draw experience and lessons from history, and must be based on practical issues. Therefore, from the perspective of the history of the compilation of the Civil Code interpret how the Civil Code came into being and how to embody the people-centered stance, so as to clarify why the Civil Code is a people-centered law and the law that truly protects the interests of the broad masses of people.
