Abstract
The relationship of law and other forms of social control is examined by using data derived from traditional Chinese society, as well asfrom the contemporary situation in the People's Republic of China and Taiwan. The specific focus is Black's theory of the behavior of law. The evidence presented here generally supports Black's position regarding the relationship of law and social control; however, some caveats are in order.Keywords
