Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper proposes to deal with domestic consumer protection laws and standards regulation, which have their roots in both categories. While most trade analysts differentiate between cultural and standards barriers, we hope to demonstrate that culture and social custom are not nicely distinguishable from law. Design standards, testing and certification requirements, positive substance lists and other recognized non-tariff barriers are as much a reflection of culture as are buyer-supplier customary norms and consumer preferences for goods produced in Japan. Although many product standards are explicitly set by government, either directly or through subsidiary administrative agencies, this paper will illustrate that it will be a far more intractable process to adapt these standards to meet the demands of Japan's Western trading partners than it was to modify existing tariff and quota structures. These non-tariff barriers are deeply rooted in the Japanese culture and psyche, are not obviously motivated by protectionist objects, are often unarticulated and non-specific in their effect, and are not subject to reform through traditional international trade liberalization agreements. In this paper the substantive and procedural aspects of products liability law and the standards systems in place in Japan will be outlined in order to show how they differ from the analogous products liability regime and standards systems in Canada. Although foreign manufacturers frequently avoid insurance, product design, and litigation costs related to products liabiity risks, Canadian manufacturers exporting to Japan must comply with a wide range of standards and certification regulations. We conclude that product safety regulation in Japan, manifested both in product standards and in products liability law, is a reflection of Japanese history, culture, religion, and structural and institutional constraints on litigation, and that it is unrealistic, if not arrogant, for the West to dismiss summarily these standards as being merely protectionist barriers, or to demand their modification in accordance with our regulatory philosophies.

Download or read book The ABCs of Product Safety Re Regulation in Japan written by Luke R. Nottage and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia is considering a full-scale Free Trade Agreement with Japan. This gives added importance to the trajectory of Japanese product safety regulations, and consumer law more generally. Generally, Japan has been dismantling ex ante regulation while strengthening private liability regimes, especially information disclosure obligations, over its quot;lost decadequot; of economic stagnation since the early 1990s. Yet it has also re-regulated more broadly in response to safety concerns, as evidenced by four recent case studies involving asbestos (for the third time), buildings, electrical goods, and elevators manufactured by a market leader world-wide. This makes Japan converge on a broader pattern identified within quot;global business regulation,quot; and makes it likely that the nation (like Australia) will revamp general consumer product regulation along recently revised European Union lines. Yet Japan's regulatory mix still diverges from that in several other industrialized democracies, particularly in the prominent roles played by criminal prosecutions and the spectre of state liability.
Download or read book Business Law in Japan written by Christopher Heath and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2012-04-12 with total page 848 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compilations of cases with commentary – in Japanese Hanrei Hyakusen – often provide the most practical way to obtain a quick and reliable understanding of a specific field of law, as well as guidance on how best to proceed in specific situations. In this respect, leading cases much more than statutory provisions are essential for understanding the reality of Japanese commercial law. This incomparable book compiles 72 of the most important commercially relevant Japanese court decisions in the fields of civil law, labour law, company law, financial transactions, intellectual property, antitrust, conflict of laws, and arbitration. Each decision is presented in English translation and is accompanied by a practical and explanatory commentary by an expert in the field, be it from academia or private practice. There are 50 commentators in all, brought together here to honour the 60th birthday of Harald Baum, widely regarded as one of the world’s foremost scholars on Japanese business law. The cases encompass a wide reach of causes of action in fields such as: breach of contract; tort liability; product liability; unjust enrichment; collective bargaining; shareholders’ rights; directors’ duty of care; political donations; insider trading; patent infringement; parallel imports; trade mark rights; unfair competition; publicity rights; price fixing; arbitration agreements; and recognition of foreign judgements. Whether serving as practical guidance or as a basis for academic research, this compilation will be warmly welcomed by practicing lawyers, teachers and students of Japanese and international law, and all others who need to understand the various fields of Japanese commercial law.
