A Discussion on the Legal Convergence of《Yangtze River Protection Law》and《Civil Code》
The background of enacting《Yangtze River Protection Law》is presented whilst stating its legislative orientation and regulative implications.As the first legislation for watershed management in China,it is a special one that transcends"departmental"and"local"acts.In virtue of guiding the legislation on environmental resources by civil legal norms and responding of the legislation on Yangtze River protection to the civil code,the relationship between《Yangtze River Protection Law》and《Civil Code》has been elucidated whilst analysing the necessity and the way to link up each other.In terms of the cooperativity applicable to the legal norms,the establishment of a watershed environmental judicature coordination mechanism,the improvement on the environmental civil public welfare litigation mechanism,and etc.,it is proposed that the achievement of legally linking up《Yangtze River Protection Law》and《Civil Code》should be under the guidance of green principles.
