Yong Liang

Ms. Liang will focus her research on labor law issues in outward investment by Chinese investors. As China increases its amount of outward investment, labor laws and regulations will undoubtedly be an issue of major concern. Domestic labor practices are also of great concern to potential international investors. Ms. Liang argues that China will have to consider whether its development of outward investment is sustainable and harmonious. Ms. Liang will study labor laws and regulations of the US, EU and other developed states in order to provide essential insight and expertise for the Chinese government to improve Chinese labor laws and promote reforms in labor protection and human rights.
