About This Book
This volume offers the result of a reflection on the characteristics of East Asian constitutional systems. In the course of the work, in addition to the deepening of the foreign rights considered, research was also carried out with a view to internal or areal comparison, that is, between Eastern legal systems, and with respect to public legal systems belonging to other legal traditions, mainly to the Western legal tradition. The sectors of the systems examined refer to the constitutional system, with a separate analysis of the legislative, executive and judicial organs including constitutional justice (in the national experiences that contemplate it), the forms of political-administrative decentralization and the catalogue of fundamental rights. In accordance with the widely predominant trends in the international literature on comparative law methodology (in what is relevant here, in the field of constitutional law), both the diachronic and sonchronic profiles of the national laws considered have been examined.
