Research Abstract |
The Reception of western legal system in modern Japan largely based on both political and legal intellect which were major in pre-modern era(Edo-era). This research aims at more concrete and precise analysis of such intelectual continuation, and achieved effectively mainly by reflections on a penal law codification in early modern Okinawa. It also succsessfully shows a potential for a new method of east-asian legal comparisons in the 19 century.
