Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The research done by the applicant mainly led to several writings and oral presentations. Drawing on a previous working paper (online), a first peer-reviewed article examines the global turn of legal education in Japan from the perspective of recent trends in teaching comparative law and on the basis of an initial case study: an experimental Introduction to joint research on comparative study of law (RIEJ, 2014, 51-72). Focusing on legal comparison as a practice involving various actors and implying different technics, a second peer-reviewed article questions its historical and contemporary role in the construction of law in Japan. It examines how the reflexive analysis developed by a few Japanese legal scholars regarding such a way to produce norms: 1) contributes to renew legal comparativism from both methodological and epistemological perspectives; 2) may also stimulate the development of innovative teaching/learning practices (CIPANGO, 2015, forthcoming).
