One important part of US soft power is its highly-developed legal system. But sometimes their legal institution and practice came under fire over legal cases such as O.L. Simpson. Outside the US, the image of this most powerful democracy has also been tarnished by scandals of Abu Grab and similar abuse of human rights in Guan Tanamo.

But scandals and malpractice exist everywhere. China as a developing country is no exception. As leaders of the two countries begin regular senior-level dialogue, there seems to be a vast area when the two governments can cooperate and address legal issues in a more constructive way.
