Features: Introduction to Economic Law (original title Economic Law), a comprehensive work in the field of economic law by Japanese legal scholars in the 1980s, is a labor of love by Professor Kanetaro Kanazawa, who has dedicated 40 years of research experience. The book is divided into three parts: General Theory of Economic Law, Economic Organization Law, and Economic Activity Law. It primarily examines the historical development of Japanese and international economic legislation, providing detailed elaborations on theoretical analysis and practical applications.
In line with Japan's "technologically advanced nation" policy in the 1980s, the book places special emphasis on competition policy law, corporate responsibility, small and medium-sized enterprises, agricultural and fishing structural laws, as well as oil crisis law, new foreign exchange law, and consumer policy law. It serves as a window into Japan's economic legislation, offering insights into the formation of its economic law theory over recent decades, the role of economic law in Japan's economic development at different stages, and a broader perspective of Japan's economic law system, including emerging trends in economic legislation and modern Japanese legal practices.
Since its publication in Japan, the book has had a significant impact on the Japanese legal community, particularly in the field of economic law. It is a valuable reference work for studying Japanese economic law, as well as modern Japanese legal history and legal thought. This book aims to provide useful references for China's economic legislation and research. It is suitable for law teachers and students in middle and high schools, researchers, judicial personnel, and legal enthusiasts.
