In terms of legislative examples, this book showcases the U.S. approach to regulating non-profit organizations based on the distinction between legal and illegal entities, while also highlighting Japan's legislative model, which, in addition to general principles outlined in the Civil Code, employs the Special Act for Promoting Specific Non-Profit Activities as a special law.
