Abstract

Basic research will become a leading force and strategic engine for the future world development. The establishment of the legal system of basic research provides an all-round institutional guarantee for the vigorous development of basic research. The development of basic research cannot be separated from a good legal environment. Two dimensions of legal environment analysis of basic research are constructed: The first is the composition of the legal subject of basic research and the nature of basic research behavior, the second is the typical problem of basic research in China and the legal system it requires. Based on the above research frame, There are five main legal problems about basic research in Chnia: The lack of legislation on basic research subjects (scientific research institutions); The actual weakening of basic research guarantees under the existing governance framework; The lack of legislation for scientific research funding and the lack of supervision; The lack of integrity in the legal environment for basic research; The legal system of transformation of achievements focuses on dislocation. In order to solve the above problems, legislation should pay attention to the importance of basic research, guarantee the independence of basic research funding institutions and research institutions, and establish independent research funding management laws. Create an honest legal environment and social atmosphere conducive to basic research, establish a stable and effective legal system for protecting and using basic research results.
