Description
This is the updated and substantially enlarged edition of Japanese Law originally published in 1992, which was acclaimed for being the first comprehensive study of Japanese law to be published in English by a Japanese academic. The book covers the entire range of Japanese law with an emphasis on commercial law covering such topics as the reform of the company law, internationalization of competition law, and the financial 'Big Bang', and cross-border litigation. Bridging the gap between the law in statute books and the actual implementation in practice, the book incorporates all of the most recent case law as well as reflecting on current debates in legal academic discourse in Japan.
