Ji Li is the John S. & Marilyn Long Professor of US-China Business and Law at UC, Irvine School of Law. He is an interdisciplinary scholar who has spent a decade researching the rise of China and its global impacts, with a focus on the US. His earlier book, The Clash of Capitalism? Chinese Companies in the United States (2018), explores Chinese investors' adaptation to the complex, stringent US regulatory system.

• Introduction; 1. Chinese companies in the US Legal system; 2. In-House legal managers of Chinese companies in the United States; 3. Chinese companies and their US lawyers; 4. US Litigation by Chinese companies; 5. Chinese companies in federal courts; 6. Chinese companies' legal strategy against US Government mistreatment; Conclusion.

'In his meticulous study, Li shows that Chinese companies are positioned between a rock and a hard place. On the one hand, Chinese companies are subject to PRC laws and regulations and the CCP's rules. On the other hand, these companies must adapt to the rigors of the U.S. legal system. Yet far from being 'stuck,' Li demonstrates how Chinese companies navigate these norms through 'institutional duality.' Marshalling a sizeable amount of mixed data, Li's study helps us understand the implications from the vantage of Chinese companies and also for the U.S. legal system, its regulators, lawyers, and users.'
