  • "Recommendations -- Methodology -- Background -- Chengguan abuses -- Relevant international and domestic legal standards."
  • ""Since its founding in 1997, China's Urban Management Law Enforcement or chengguan, a para-police agency tasked with enforcing non-criminal urban administrative regulations, has earned a reputation for excessive force and impunity. The chengguan have become associated in popular opinion with arbitrary and thuggish behavior, including assaults on suspected administrative law violators (some of which lead to serious injury or death), illegal detention, and abuses accompanying forceful confiscation of property. "Beat Him, Take Everything Away"--based on interviews with victims of chengguan abuse between mid-2009 and 2011 and analysis of relevant Chinese laws, regulations, and academic writings--charts the creation and development of chengguan units over the past 15 years, details recent cases of abuse, and sets forth recommendations for ending the abuses. It argues that human rights violations by chengguan personnel illustrate problems plaguing law enforcement in China more generally, underlining the gap between the Chinese government's rhetoric on rule of law and the rougher, more arbitrary reality experienced by Chinese victims of abusive policing."--P. [4] of cover."
