"Dharmasisya” Jurnal Program Magister Hukum FHUI
The Dokdo Island dispute is a territorial dispute involving Japan and South Korea in the dispute over the island located in the Sea of Japan. The governments of Japan and South Korea base their claims of ownership of Dokdo Island on historical evidence and geographical connectivity.

The essay is informed by an ongoing qualitative empirical study of business credit in Japan—the Japanese Business Credit Project. The JBCP involves interviews of representatives of Japanese financial institutions and governmental bodies and legal practitioners …

Law, Norms, And Legal Change: Global And Local In China And Japan, Nicholas C. Howson, Mark D. West
Articles
The editors of the Michigan Journal of International Law have boldly brought together four articles and commentary that focus on different aspects of the same problem in China and Japan: the relationship between domestic legal change and foreign and/or "international" law and regulation, "soft" agreements, norms, or even cultural practices. The compilation is bold in part because scholarship on change in East Asian law and legal systems often suffers from one of two defects. First, it often focuses on purely domestic phenomena in only one system, ignoring the comparative connections. Second, scholars often attack the problem from an exclusively comparative …
