Description

Product Description This edited volume to addresses the dynamics of the legal system of Myanmar/Burma in the context of the dramatic but incomplete transition to democracy that formally began in 2011. It includes contributions from leading scholars in the field on a range of key legal issues now facing Myanmar, such as judicial independence, constitutional law, human rights and institutional reform. It features chapters on the legal history of Myanmar; electoral reform; the role of the judiciary; economic reforms; and the state of company law. It also includes chapters that draw on the experiences of other countries to contextualise Myanmar s transition to democracy in a comparative setting, including Myanmar s participation in regional bodies such as ASEAN. This topical book comes at a critical juncture in Myanmar s legal development and will be an invaluable resource for students and teachers seeking greater understanding of the legal system of Myanmar. It will also be vital reading for a wide range of government, business and civil society organisations seeking to re-engage with Myanmar, as it navigates a difficult transition toward democracy and the rule of law. Review "...this volume will serve as a good reference work for scholars interested in Myanmar by highlighting the importance of legal reform in its nascent transition. For legal practitioners, it can give a taste of how principles of common law are implanted into codified laws, the cost of neglecting law reform, and how any legal regime is influenced by those who use it." --Australian Journal of Administrative Law"...a magisterial book that expertly analyses several development in modern Myanmmar." --Asian Journal of Comparative Law"Readers should treat this as a one-stop resource to understanding how law, history and societal life in Myanmar collide with and influence the country's political development and transformation." --Contemporary Southeast Asia"The book offers a comprehensive and in-depth overview of the wide range of juridical, political and socio-economic issues in Myanmar." --Rivista Trimestrale del diritto pubblico About the Author Melissa Crouch is a Research Fellow at the Centre for Asian Legal Studies, Law Faculty, National University of Singapore.
