Abstract:The rule of law for the control of China’s precursor chemicals originated before the enactment of the United Nations Convention against illegal Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances. Its criminal legal norms went through the process from the “Decision on Drug Control” to the 97 “Criminal Law” and were initially finalized. Administrative legal norms are based on departmental regulations,local regulations,and local government regulations,pay attention to the import and export links,and strengthen the control of ephedrine. From 1999 to 2013,key remediation was carried out through special actions,a mechanism for multi-departmental and cross-regional collaboration was established,a national information management system for precursor chemicals was built,and unified international actions were taken to fulfill international obligations. With the Drug Control Law and Criminal Law as the basis,the Regulations on the Management of precursor Chemicals as the core,departmental regulations and other normative documents as the main body,the judicial interpretation of the Supreme People’s Court and the Supreme People’s Procuratorate and judicial policies、local normative documents and international treaties as a supplement,the legal normative system has basically been formed,and at the same time,it has also shaped the conceptual system of “precursor chemicals” and “drug-making substances”. Since 2014,with “full-element supervision of drug-making substances” as the core,the “4·14” anti-drug-making project working mechanism and the unified judicial application standards of the people’s courts have been established to make up for related work loopholes. China has continuously revised its legislation:new crimes,additional types,and new systems have been added. In the future,in the context of promoting the rule of law in society and the modernization of municipal social governance,“autonomy” and “wisdom governance” should be strengthened to improve the effectiveness of the control of precursor chemicals.
