This is an elaboration on my previous question regarding depictions of single party communist political systems but I am particularly interested in China and how things work in their seat of power.

Looking for a show like House of Cards but Chinese with english subtitles and I don’t care if its CCP propoganda stuff or if its filmed in the Koreas depicting a fairly realistic informed u derstanding of party politics, show trials, etc.

    Im prolly being naïve here but I feel like its the same reason prosecutors have to disclose the evidence they have on you. It literally makes no sense for them to try and ambush you at trial

    It’s actually the opposite. Being able to ring evidence that’s unseen to the other party makes it significantly easier for low quality evidence to have a high impact simply because the defense hadn’t prepared for it. This is because proving a negative is fundamentally impossible. You can prove a counter-positive, but never the negative itself. Because of this, it’s important you’re able to know what the prosecution is going to present in order for you to have a defense against it.
