Download or read book Law and Society in East Asia written by Christoph Antons and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The massive and complex process of change in East Asia over recent decades has brought about a transformation in the nature of law and legal institutions in the region. Whilst the process of change has to some degree mimicked western models of law and legal change, there have been significant differences in approach due to the different social foundations of East Asian societies. The more obvious of these has been the variety of ways in which rule of law ideas have been adopted in many East Asian countries where the role of the state is more dominant when compared with Western models. This volume brings together a selection of the most important writings on East Asia of researchers in recent years, and shows the broad range of questions which researchers have been addressing about the effect of law reform and legal change in societies dominated by traditional values and political forces, and at a time of massive economic change.

Xenophobia, anti-refugee, anti-immigration rhetoric has become political leaders' most effective tool in connecting with their public. So, how does one make sense of this mad, mad world? This book seeks to question and tries to answer this very question.
