Taiwan's modern legal system--quite different from those of both
traditional China and the People's Republic--has evolved since the
advent of Japanese rule in 1895. Japan has gradually adopted
Western law during the 19th-century and when it occupied Taiwan--a
frontier society composed of Han Chinese settlers--its codes were
instituted for the purpose of rapidly assimilating the Taiwanese
people into Japanese society. Tay-sheng Wang's comprehensive study
lays a solid foundation for future analyses of Taiwanese law. It
documents how Western traditions influenced the formation of
Taiwan's modern legal structure through the conduit of Japanese
colonial rule and demonstrates the extent to which legal concepts
diverged from the Chinese legal tradition and moved toward Western
law.
