報告者募集(CALE Annual Conference 2022)

名古屋大学CALEは、2022年2月14-15日に、Annual Conferenceを開催します。報告者を以下の通り募集いたします。


The post-colonial, post-war, or post-socialist system transformation processes in Asia have created multiple challenges, including institutional (re-)building and governance, economic transition, and extensive legal reforms. From a globalist perspective, Asian constitutionalism and the constitution-making process in Asian states appear to be part of moving towards a Western model of democracy and the rule of law. In reality, various local and specific regional varieties shaped additionally by colonial and traditional tendencies emerged in the context of transformation and created specific ways of constitution-making and establishing diverse constitutional cultures in Asia.

As a part of its project on ‘Advancing Research in Asian Constitutionalism – Establishing a Transnational Research Network to Promote Human Rights and Legal System’ (JSPS Core-to-Core Program: Asia-Africa Science Platforms), CALE’s general theme for this year’s Annual Conference is “The Identity and Dynamics of Contemporary Asian Constitutionalism in the Context of Globalization.” This Conference will cover the following sub-themes;

1)      System Transformation and Constitutional Change in Asia

2)      Post-colonial, Neo-traditional, and Global Tendencies in Asian Hybrid Constitutionalism

3)      The Asian Local Challenges to Constitutional Values

4)      Constitutional Adjudication as a Constitutional Stability or Populism in Asia

5)      Jus Naturale and Positivism of Rights (Human Rights) in Asian Constitutionalism

6)      Emergency Specifics of Asian Constitutionalism

7)      Recent Developments in Asian Constitutionalism

We also welcome abstracts that do not fall directly under the sub-themes mentioned above but are still related to other features of Asian constitutionalism.
