Research On The Legal Aid System In Colleges And Universities In China

The legal aid system in colleges and universities in China is an important part of the legal aid system of socialism with Chinese characteristics.Legal aid organizations in colleges and universities participate in legal aid work through their own advantages of human resources to provide legal services such as legal consultation,writing legal documents on behalf of vulnerable groups,and acting as agents for various lawsuits,which is an innovative measure under the contradiction between the shortage of existing legal aid resources in China and the growing legal aid needs of the people.Under the background of the slow growth of the existing legal aid force in our country,fully mobilizing social legal aid resources,especially university legal resources,is itself an“incentive” for other legal aid forces led by the government,and can make all positive factors conducive to safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the needy people fully flow.After more than 20 years of development,China's legal aid system in colleges and universities has played an important role in safeguarding the legal rights and interests of vulnerable groups,promoting the reform of law teaching in colleges and universities and cultivating outstanding legal talents.At the same time,there are still many problems to be solved in legislation and judicial practice.Therefore,under the legal aid model of“government-led and social participation”,it is of great theoretical and practical significance to systematically explore the problems faced by the current legal aid system in China's colleges and universities and further improve the legal aid work path in China's colleges and universities.This article outlines the concept,characteristics and development of legal aid system in colleges and universities in China,and analyzes the necessity and feasibility of legal aid work in colleges and universities in detail.Through the comparative analysis of the management system,personnel composition,aid model and other related systems of legal aid work in Chinese and American universities,this paper provides a blueprint for improving the legal aid system in Chinese universities.At the same time,the paper analyzes the difficulties faced by the legal aid system in colleges and universities in China,such as the unclear nature of the legal aid organization in colleges and universities,the confusion of the management system,the lack of necessary funds for aid work and the lack of stability of aid teams.Finally,the paper puts forward a series of ways to improve the legal aid system in colleges and universities in China,such as clarifying the legal status of legal aid organizations in colleges and universities at the legislative level,establishing a unified national leading and coordinating organization for legal aid work in colleges and universities,establishing an all-round fund guarantee system and strengthening team building.Therefore,the legal aid work carried out by Chinese universities not only has important application prospects,but also has very important practical significance in promoting the process of running the country according to law.
