Research Summary
This research laboratory is primarily engaged in research on the legal system and legal culture in East Asia as one of Waseda University Comprehensive Organization Research Project Institutes. While collecting and arranging of historical source books, such as Hō in(法院) in Taiwan and Korea of a Japan sway period, and arranging and retaining the instrument source materials of the colonial-administration persons concerned, we study development of law -including legal customs-, jurisprudence and legal education, the plantation operation in modern Japan and influence of Japanese law in the laws in East Asian countries in a prewar-days term. Moreover, in order to promote
collaboration between researchers of this field, we also aim to develop a research network.
