As a result, the conception of legal professionalism began to strike root among the law circles and the technocrats of governmental organs, and to set off a rapid chain reaction in this party-state. It is common knowledge that in modern China, the activities of attorneys at law had been held back since 1957, and afterwards the judicial system was almost entirely destroyed during the said “Cultural Revolution” period of 1966-1976.
