China’s vast territory presents diverse disaster challenges across different regions, necessitating harmonized legislation to establish a comprehensive governance and implementation framework. The country’s rich cultural diversity, large population, and unique local environments further underscore the importance of a unified approach to disaster law. This chapter delves into the evolution of China’s disaster legislation, examining three critical periods: the early days of the People’s Republic of China, the era following the reform and opening up, and the twenty-first century. It highlights the current development characteristics of China’s disaster law and contrasts its features with those of developed countries like the United States and Japan. The chapter also identifies several challenges in China’s disaster law development, including the absence of a fundamental disaster law, inadequate capital investment, lack of detailed legal regulations for social organizations, and an imperfect disaster insurance system. Additionally, the chapter explores disaster law in Hong Kong and Macau, showcasing their well-structured frameworks, which emphasize interagency collaboration, public engagement, and technological integration. These regions provide valuable lessons for enhancing disaster management practices. Based on the analysis, the chapter proposes future directions for China’s disaster law development. Recommendations include improving legal awareness among residents, focusing on disaster prevention amid climate change, leveraging science and technology for better disaster monitoring, and establishing comprehensive disaster laws. By addressing these areas, China can strengthen its disaster resilience and safeguard its citizens more effectively.
