Research Description

I study the nineteenth-century and early-twentieth-century French and German law and jurisprudence, their historiography, East Asia's borrowing of Western law, and legal history's relevance to contemporary political and policy issues. I emphasize the legislative aspect of lawyer's participation in public affairs. In different languages, I have published on legal persons, customary law in the context of indigenous empowerment, rural land management and depopulation in East Asia, and Taiwan's judicial reform. In addition, I have written op-ed and blog pieces on reform projects concerning same-sex couples, Republican Chinese regime's rule of Taiwan and its legacy, and the history of foie gras.
