Ma Xiwu’s Way of Judging” emerged in the Shaan-Gan-Ning Border Region in the 1940s. Generally assumed to be a legacy of Communist revolutionary legal practice in civil law and often described simply as a form of mediation, it is in fact, this article argues, a complicated legal process, produced in a particular historical and social setting. Although generalized as the Party’s policy and problematized when it was promoted to a broader geographical and social reality, it presented an attempt by the revolutionary state to bridge local culture and the modern legal system, to reduce antagonism caused by legal formalism. Ma’s Way created procedures for mass participation in constructing a modern judicial system and redefined the dynamic state–society interplays. As an historical tradition in the making since the 1940s, its multifaceted nature allowed its adoption into the contemporary judicial system and community life in a variety of new forms.

| Summary/Abstract |
Road to Revival, as the third musical epic in the People's Republican history, was produced and publicized in 2009 in order to celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of the PRC. Like the previous two epics, Revival expressed and promoted the official ideology of the time. Through a close reading of Revival's artistic presentation and comparison with the two similar musical epics, The East Is Red and The Laud for the Chinese Revolution, this article demonstrates that traditional political theory such as the 'mandate of heaven' (tianming) is now revitalizing and being adapted to construct the party's legitimacy. In constructing a new legitimacy for the party, Revival does not only depoliticize and recast the histories of the CCP and modern China but also tries to establish a foundation for the party's rule by displaying its successful performance in governance which has gradually become the groundwork in shaping the party's new legitimacy.
