The trend towards convergence arises in part from 'globalisation', from 'rule of law programs' promulgated by institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and the Asian Development Bank, and from widespread migration in the region, whilst the opposing trend arises in part from moves to resist such 'globalisation'. This book explores a wide range of issues related to this key problem, covering China in particular, where resolving differences in conceptions about the rule of law is a key issue as China begins to integrate itself into the World Trade Organisation regime. 606 $aLaw$zEast Asia 607 $aAsia$xSocial life and customs 615 0$aLaw 676 $a349.5 701 $aRosett$b Arthur I.$f1934-$0887689 701 $aCheng$b Lucie$0887690 701 $aWoo$b Margaret Y.
