Prof Po Jen Yap, Director of CCPL, edited a new book “Proportionality in Asia” (CUP, 2020).

This is the first book that focusses on how proportionality analysis – a legal transplant from the West – is applied by courts around Asia, and it explores how a country’s commitment to democracy and the rule of law is fundamental to the success of the doctrine’s judicial enforcement. This book will appeal to lawyers, political scientists, and students of law and political science who seek to understand how proportionality analysis is blossoming and, in some cases, flourishing in Asia.
