LAW 6154
Comparative Law: East Asian Legal Systems

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2017-2018.

This course has two related goals.  First, we will consider some elements and motifs of legal systems of the Asia Pacific region.  Second, we will consider some elements and motifs of the discipline of comparative law--its aims, tradition, methods and achievements--and use materials and problems from the Asia Pacific region to reflect critically and programmatically upon a disciplinary project that traditionally defines itself in predominantly Euro-American terms. The course also aims to provide students with a prism for thinking about legal questions in their own society through the comparison of other cultures and conceptions of law.

When Offered Fall.
