It has however emerged in Western liberal democracies, and some people question how far it is likely to take root fully in the different cultural, economic and political context of Asia. This book considers how rule of law is viewed and implemented in Asia. Chapters on France and the USA provide a benchmark on how the concept has evolved, is applied and is implemented in a civil law and a common law juri 410 0$aRoutledgeCurzon law in Asia. 606 $aRule of law$zAsia 606 $aRule of law$zFrance 606 $aRule of law$zUnited States 615 0$aRule of law 615 0$aRule of law 615 0$aRule of law 676 $a340/.11 701 $aPeerenboom$b R.
