Four Asian Tigers. Economies of Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan

A potent and disorienting new book by the author of Owlish, a National Book Critics Circle prize finalist

A Novel

City Like Water

Studies in Private International Law - Asia

This book compares and explains the approaches taken by Asian courts when choice of forum clauses in international commercial contracts are challenged in litigation. It examines key common law jurisdictions (Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia), civil law jurisdictions (China, Japan, and Indonesia), and hybrid jurisdictions (the Philippines). With Asia's ascent in cross-border trade and investment, alongside a corresponding increase in cross-border litigation, understanding how Asian courts address choice of forum clauses in international commercial contracts has never been more critical. Employing a comparative law method, the book identifies and explains the relief and remedies used by Asian courts in enforcing choice of forum clauses, analysing how their classification as either contractual or procedural in nature shapes judicial approaches. It further distinguishes choice of forum clauses from arbitration agreements and explores their interaction with other contractual provisions. Party autonomy - as the parties' freedom to determine the contents of the choice of forum clause and the freedom to control the flow of litigation - is also critically scrutinised. Furthermore, the book investigates the factors courts consider in resolving key choice of forum clause issues (ie, enforceability; specific relief to be granted; existence, validity, interpretation of choice of forum clauses; role of mandatory rules, public policy, and international interests) and explores the prospects for future development of this area of law in Asia. Crucially, the book highlights the unique approaches of Asian courts, while underscoring the differences and similarities among common law, civil law, and hybrid jurisdictions.

Don't miss it' Amazon reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Hard to put it down' Amazon reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Deeply moving' Abi Daré 'Weaves expertly between present and past' Celeste Ng 'Unforgettable' Washington Post 'Mesmerising' Harper's Bazaar Suchi first sees Haiwen in their Shanghai neighbourhood when she is seven years old, drawn by the sound of his violin. Their childhood friendship blossoms into love, but when Haiwen secretly enlists in the Nationalist army in 1947 to save his brother from the draft, Suchi is left with just his violin and a note: Forgive Me. Sixty years later, recently widowed Haiwen spots Suchi at a grocery store in Los Angeles. It feels to Haiwen like a second chance, but Suchi has only survived by refusing to look back. In the twilight of their lives, can they reclaim their past and the love they lost? Homeseeking follows the separated lovers through six decades of tumultuous Chinese history, telling Haiwen's story from the present to the past while tracing Suchi's from her childhood to the present, meeting at the crucible of their lives. From Shanghai to Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the United States, neither loses sight of the home they hold in their hearts. 'A love story in more ways than one' Vanessa Chan

An epic tale of one couple spanning decades as world events pull them together and apart

For fans of K-Pop Demon Hunters and historical K-dramas - A devastating Korean romantasy tinged with mythology

The Legend of Lady Byeoksa

This is the leading reference on Taiwan's private international law in English. The chapters systematically cover the whole of Taiwan's private international law, including designated chapters on the law of obligations, property, family law, corporations and insolvency, together with separate chapters on international commercial arbitration and investment treaty arbitration. Taiwan's legal framework is a hybrid civil law system that evolved from the Chinese legal tradition and the adoption of the modern Roman system, as well as increasing influences from common law jurisdictions and international law. Its unique status and prominence in international trade and investment provide unique opportunities for aligning with, and contributing to, regional and international harmonisation of private international law. Through a combination of civil law and common law approaches and perspectives, the book provides a balanced and nuanced presentation of Taiwan's private international law that will appeal to practitioners and scholars worldwide.
