It is also comprised of two reports that draw comparative lessons from Japan, India and Indonesia. In addition, this volume consists of four general reports and 19 national reports that guide readers through the knowledge of codification of commercial law, administrative law, civil law and private international law in East Asia.This book is developed from papers presented at the 2012 Thematic Conference of the International Academy of Comparative Law.
