Abstract

The system of water law in China is built differently than in many countries of the world. It emerged from a planned economic system, a traditional society in which agriculture was the majority, and a rapid stage of industrialization and urbanization. It has its own characteristics. Proceeding from the premise of compliance with the fundamental system of the socialist market economy, the main characteristics of the reform and construction of the water law system in China are: compliance with the system of state ownership of state and collective water resources, and the introduction of a management system based on government leadership, full control, priority and regional coordination. Through gradual reforms, such as pilot projects, the marketization process will be accelerated and the market mechanism will be used to optimize the allocation of water resources. The purpose of the work. By analyzing the water legislation of China, to study the characteristics, the direction of the reform of water law and the ways of building the water law system of China. Methods. Empirical research methods, search and analysis of information from mass media, analysis and comparison of data, comparison and generalization were used in the work. Results. Through the study of the water law system in China, it was possible to identify the main direction of water law reform, which corresponds to the general trend of water law reform in the world, which is that the government assumes a leading role and fully uses the role of the market economy in optimizing the allocation of resources.
