ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the emergence of public interest legal organizations is the result of legal reform in China, an important component of the burgeoning Chinese civil society, a symbol of the awakening of people's civil rights consciousness and an embodiment of the rational spirit of law. First, China is currently in a period of transition from a planned economy to a market economy and from the rule of man to the rule of law. On the one hand, as the pursuit of individual interests acquires legitimacy in all fields and at all levels of social life, social interests become increasingly differentiated. As a result, the traditional ethical standard of placing morality above material gain is gradually abandoned and public interest, which is less exclusive in its enjoyment, is more easily ignored by individuals and becomes a blind spot in their pursuit of interest.
