摘要
中国关于外商投资企业的立法实践可追溯至1979年《中外合资经营企业法》的颁布，其后《外资企业法》和《中外合作经营企业法》相继出台，这三部法律及其配套行政法规被概称为“三资企业法”在渐成体系的外商投资企业法律规范中居于核，心地位。与之相较，规范内资企业的《公司法》问世于上世纪90年代，《合伙企业法》、《外商独资企业法》能够被适用更是迟至90年代后期。
China＇s legislation on foreign-in vested enterprises can be traced back to 1979 when the Law on Chinese-Foreign Equity Joint Ventures was enacted by the National People＇s Congress （NPC） - China＇s top legislature. Afterwards, the Law on Foreign-Capital Enterprises and the Law on Chinese-Foreign Contractual Joint Ventures were also enacted. These three laws and their support administrative regulations enacted by the State Council - the highest governing body in China - are collectively known as China＇s three laws on foreign-capital enterprises, which are at the core of the gradually formed system of Chinese laws on foreign-invested enterprises. In comparison, the Company Law of China intended to regulate Chinese-capital enterprises was born in the 1990s.
