The chapter that discusses climate litigation in Asia is written by another Asia LL.M. graduate, Daniel Linden.\u00a0 A chapter examining the impact of the EU&#8217;s Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive on Asian countries is written by Professor Tamio Nakamura, who teaches in our Asia LL.M. program. Professor Shin Matsuzawa also discusses Japan in a chapter discussing the impact of the UN Guiding Principles on Japan and China from the perspective of corporate crime control.
