| Description: | This informative book examines examples of law reform projects in post-socialist and post-authoritarian states in Asia, identifies common problems, and proposes analytical frameworks for understanding them.

Though parallels between Asian models and those in developing states elsewhere in the world are strong, the book has been developed to avoid suggestion that the issues covered are somehow peculiarly ‘Asian’- indeed, it is shown that cultural relativist approaches to Asia are unsustainable. This is an invaluable reference for those involved in the areas of development economics, Asian studies and comparative politics. |
