Project Overview
In order to accommodate actively the modernization experience of Japan into the nation-building process of Asian countries, and to provide the Japanese government with necessary technical tools for supporting the designing of a “judicial system based on the Japanese model” outside of Japan, we will build a new legal education model which can be utilized as a common method for the training of jurists who will be capable of contributing to the legal development of the countries concerned. We will review the curriculum, teaching materials and teaching methods applied so far by the “Research and Education Center for Japanese Law” established by Nagoya University outside of Japan, and collaborate with a consortium networking universities and enterprises in Japan to further develop the relevant curriculum, materials and methods so that they can be equally helpful and applicable to other institutions in the region.
