Columbia Law School Center for Japanese Legal Studies : ウィキペディア英語版 | Columbia Law School Center for Japanese Legal Studies
Columbia Law School's Center for Japanese Legal Studies (CJLS) is the first and only center of its kind in the United States. The Center for Japanese Legal Studies advances the study of Japanese law at Columbia Law School and fosters intellectual exchange between the Columbia community and the legal profession of Japan. The Center strives to be the principal source of intellectual exchange between the legal professions of the United States and Japan. Columbia Law School consistently ranks among the top schools nationally in the field of international law. The CJLS holds that its main challenge today is keeping abreast of dynamic changes in the Japanese legal system over the past decade. Reforms have been motivated by a variety of factors, ranging from domestic economic and demographic pressures to international relations considerations and the forces of globalization. Understanding and responding to these significant institutional changes requires in depth research and the timely dissemination of ideas. ==History== Columbia Law School’s focus on Japanese law dates to the aftermath of World War II. Columbia spearheaded bilateral collaboration among lawyers, judges, and legal scholars. As early as the 1950s, the University of Tokyo invited the late Professor Walter Gellhorn CLS ’31, an architect of U.S. administrative law, to be a visiting professor in the Faculty of Law. Professor Gellhorn envisioned a center for Japanese legal studies at Columbia to facilitate student and faculty exchanges and to disseminate research on the fundamental changes in post-war Japanese law and society. In 1980, the Center for Japanese Legal Studies was founded at Columbia Law School with support from the Fuyo Group (a leading group of Japanese corporations and financial institutions at the time) and the Japan-U.S. Friendship Commission.
