| Research Abstract |
While civil lawyer Santaro Okamatsu (1871-1921) stayed in Europe from 1896 to 1899, he studied especially at German universities, Berlin and Halle. He had a chance through this study to understand profoundly the main characters of German jurisprudence in the 19th century, beyond certain limited thesis or research fields. The investigation of old customs in Taiwan, which Okamatsu led, described them in terms of German jurisprudence. This project was based on the comparative legal theory of modern Japan, which neglected Chinese law and respected Roman law, the general conviction of historical school of German jurisprudence in the 19th century, to represent people and lead the evolution of law, and the traditional Asian view of law, that was oriented to state law. In this sense the research on old customs in Taiwan and engagements of Okamatsu revealed a complex nature.
