Peng's responsibilities during the 1950s and again in the early 1980s for political legal work within the CPC Politburo allowed him to play a significant role in shaping the Party's legal policy, while his role as Chair of the National People's Congress Standing Committee offered unparalleled opportunities to affect the content and process of legislation.
Peng's views on law have evolved from an instrumentalist approach that posited the interplay of law and politics in pursuit of the Communist Party's policy goals to one emphasizing greater procedural and institutional regularity, and even the beginnings of limited autonomy of legal rules.
Peng Zhen's ideas about role of law afford us a penetrating glimpse into the legal culture of the PRC elite and permit preliminary conclusions to be drawn as to the future of law and legal institutions in China.

Peng Zhen, one of the so-called Eight Immortals in China because of his role in the Communist takeover of 1949 and his enduring influence, died late Saturday.
Peng's official obituary took pains to note that the former head of the National People's Congress "resolutely supported the central collective leadership with Comrade Jiang Zemin at the core." The obituary praised Peng as a "great proletarian revolutionary" who was a "major founder of the socialist legal system in China."
Likewise in his sometimes contradictory career, Peng joined Deng in taking a tough stance against pro-democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square in 1989, but was the chief architect of a fledgling democracy program in China's villages.

 China - THE THIRD WAVE OF REFORM, BEGINNING IN 1986
While Deng and the central reform leaders emphasized that party interference in government affairs actually weakened party leadership, conservative leaders such as Peng Zhen continued to speak about party unity and spirit and about the more gradual means to political change.
At the same time that Hu Yaobang was removed from office, a campaign was initiated against "bourgeois liberalization." Given heavy play in the official media, this campaign sought to discredit Western political concepts and emphasize the importance of adhering to the four cardinal principles.
The campaign against bourgeois liberalization became the means for conservatives led by Political Bureau members Chen Yun, Peng Zhen, and Hu Qiaomu to express their opposition to some of the reforms, especially the pace of the reform agenda, and to the increased democratization advocated by Hu Yaobang.
