The Protection Of Administrative Law For Personal Information

The protection of personal information is a comprehensive law issue, which was illustrated by many relative scholars mainly from the perspective of civil law. However, in reality, it has become a common phenomenon that some governmental institutions always illegally collect and process the personal information of other people, based on which some false decisions are always made. And it also frequently occurred that these institutions are illegally selling and overusing other people's personal information. Since the protection of personal information can't be well guaranteed without administrative law, it naturally becomes a logical necessity to investigate the former from the perspective of the latter.This paper, first of all, discussed such basic law concepts and relative theories as the concept, subjects, objects and the law basis of personal information, based on which some investigations were further made about the lack of personal information protection in present administrative law in China. From the perspectives of law system and the protection of personal information right, this paper went on analyzing the defaults of the norms and systems of present personal information protection. Later, some suggestions were made that, facing the weaknesses of its law relating to the protection of personal information, China should set laws for such protection from a comprehensive perspective through bringing in some advanced experience and models of administrative protection from abroad. Then this paper furthered to investigate the basic approaches of administrative law for the governmental institutions' behavior of gathering and processing the personal information of other people. In the end, this paper exposed the approaches of improving the administrative law of personal information protection in China from the perspective that theories should serve practice, demonstrated the goal and guidelines which should be set in this law, illustrated the basic principles for it, and finally proposed some monitoring systems which would help to construct and perfect it in China.
