Abstract

Since the promulgation of the “Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Protection of Cultural Relics” in 1982, the law has been amended five times and revised once. Among them, the revised version adopted on October 28, 2002, has changed remarkably. On the premise of sorting out its historical background, we take “The Provisional Regulations on the Protection and Management of Cultural Relics (1961),” “The Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Protection of Cultural Relics (1982),” and “The Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Protection of Cultural Relics (2002)” as the research subject to analyze the changes in legal provisions and reveal the process of improvement in the protection of cultural relics in China.
