Studies in Private International Law - Asia

This book is the first authoritative reference on Philippine private international law in English. It covers all facets of Philippine private international law and its inevitable intersection with family and succession issues, commercial matters, intellectual property, competition, cross-border insolvency, and environmental disputes. This book goes beyond a systematic presentation of the traditional private international law issues on jurisdiction, applicable law, and enforcement mechanisms. Employing a problem-centred approach, the chapters also look into conflict of law questions arising in arbitration, and assess the Philippines' involvement in the harmonisation of private international law globally and regionally within ASEAN. With the Philippine legal system uniquely blending common and civil law traditions, the book presents Philippine private international law through the perspectives and analytical techniques characteristic of both traditions. In doing so, the book provides readers worldwide with a more profound and comprehensive understanding of private international law in the Philippines.

WITH A NEW FOREWORD BY GILES MILTON 'Peter Hopkirk is truly the Laureate of the Great Game' Jan Morris'One of the paciest and most exciting works of narrative history I have ever read' William Dalrymple'There can be few more fascinating subjects, or few authors better qualified to write about it' Independent For nearly a century the two most powerful nations on earth, Victorian Britain and Tsarist Russia, fought a secret war in the lonely passes and deserts of Central Asia. Those engaged in this shadowy struggle called it 'The Great Game', a phrase immortalized by Rudyard Kipling. When play first began the two rival empires lay nearly 2,000 miles apart. By the end, some Russian outposts were within 20 miles of India.This classic book tells the story of the Great Game through the exploits of the young officers, both British and Russian, who risked their lives playing it. Disguised as holy men or native horse-traders, they mapped secret passes, gathered intelligence and sought the allegiance of powerful khans. Some never returned. The violent repercussions of the Great Game are still convulsing Central Asia today.

Song of the Yellow Dragon

Introduces a data-driven framework for measuring governance through a fourteen-component Macro-Governance Index, demonstrating its strong predictive power for national development outcomes and offering practical tools to diagnose governance gaps and guide policy interventions.
Every year, governments borrow trillions, spend billions on development programs, and publish volumes of economic statistics-yet no widely accepted framework exists for answering a deceptively simple question: is governance actually working? Traditional approaches rely on subjective expert assessments or narrowly focused indices that measure inputs rather than outcomes. Macro-Governance Theory proposes that governance can be measured with the same empirical rigor we bring to medicine, engineering, and economics-and that doing so is essential if citizens and policymakers are to hold institutions accountable for results. 

Drawing on 26 years of publicly available data across 170 countries, the book constructs the Macro-Governance Index (MGI)-a fourteen-component composite spanning infrastructure, connectivity, financial inclusion, human capital, security, institutional quality, and economic integration. The MGI correlates with the UN Human Development Index at r = 0.97, and this relationship is not driven by income alone: controlling for GNI, the framework retains substantial independent predictive power, confirming that governance infrastructure-not just wealth-determines whether nations deliver well-being to their citizens. 

The book reveals patterns that conventional measures miss. Novel metrics for credit access and household-level financial reach show that the effective economic gap between the Global North and Sub-Saharan Africa is approximately 70× rather than the 53× that standard income comparisons suggest-a hidden disparity with profound implications for development policy. A governance simulation framework models how investments in one dimension cascade through others, enabling policymakers to identify the highest-leverage interventions for their country's specific development stage. 

Seven detailed case studies-Singapore, Rwanda, Estonia, Botswana, Chile, Costa Rica, and Lebanon-demonstrate how the framework diagnoses governance strengths and weaknesses in practice. An analysis of the ten fastest-rising nations reveals that while successful governance strategies differ radically across political systems, they share common patterns in infrastructure sequencing and institutional development that the MGI captures and quantifies. 

Designed for dual utility, the book serves as an analytical framework for researchers and policymakers and as an accessible assessment tool for citizens through the companion website grademygovernment.com. A full reproducibility dataset covering all 170 countries across seven benchmark years is included, making this not just an argument for governance science but its working prototype.

This book looks at the drivers in the emergence, development and internal and global expansion of Asian e-commerce businesses. It tackles the problems inherent in the globalization strategy of a Japanese financial services firm operating in the e-commerce sector.The business world has been transformed by information technology and online companies, which benefitted during the Covid-19 pandemic, unlike the traditional retail sector of the economy. The well-known Amazon has seen the emergence of Asian alternatives, Alibaba from China and Coupang from South Korea, both of which have the transnational venture capital firm SoftBank of Japan as a large share owner. This book explores performance and potential in e-commerce and fin-tech, internationalisation strategies, governance problems associated with foreign corporations in South Korea and anti-monopoly drive aimed at China's tech giants. Diverse topics are covered, including the results, impacts and implications of US stock exchange listings, liability of foreignness, dual-class structure and importance of corporate governance and social responsibility signalling and messaging. The chapters also cover local and global expansion - takeovers, mergers and acquisitions, such as Lazada for the South East Asian market and levels of satisfaction and loyalty. Finally, SoftBank is used as an example of individual and collective entrepreneurial learning in the case of SoftBank Academia.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Asia Pacific Business Review.

This book consolidates and documents the influence of Western consumerism on Eastern culture and values.This book provides a thorough overview of the current knowledge regarding Western consumerism and Eastern cultural values. Drawing upon research into consumer behaviour, social psychology, and anthropology, it explores how Western consumer culture has influenced Eastern culture. By surveying a spectrum of domains, including food and cuisine, fashion, music and cinema, and healthcare and medicine, this book considers the extent to which traditional Eastern values have changed and evolved during the globalisation and commercialisation process, whether it is a matter of acculturalisation, glocalisation, cultural hybridisation, and even modernisation. It also highlights the recent phenomenon of cultural renaissance, where Asian consumers are attempting to reconnect with their traditional culture, thus reversing or at least retarding the influence of Western consumer culture.A book of interest to researchers of sociocultural studies, consumer culture theory, cross-cultural psychology, and consumer behaviour studies.

The Influence of Western Consumerism on Eastern Culture

This book examines the interaction between Islam and private international law in Asia. The analysis distinguishes between Muslim-majority and non-Muslim jurisdictions. Among the former, a further distinction can be drawn between Muslim-majority jurisdictions where Islamic law continues to exert a strong influence on both substantive and procedural law (including Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Brunei), and those where the law has been largely secularized (such as Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan). Among the latter, non-Muslim jurisdictions can likewise be divided into two groups: those with a significant Muslim minority, often granted a certain degree of judicial or legal autonomy (such as India, the Philippines, and Thailand); and those where Muslims constitute only a small minority and where no special legal or judicial framework exists (including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and China). In Muslim-majority jurisdictions, the main question concerns the influence of Islamic law on the private international law treatment of cross-border cases. In non-Muslim jurisdictions, the main question concerns the acceptance of foreign law based on or influenced by Islamic law or judgments rendered in application of such laws. The chapters put the question of the interrelation between Islam and private international law in its broader theoretical context, examining the differences and similarities between the various approaches and proposing suggestions that bridge the gap between sometimes opposing approaches. The book sheds light on the multifaceted interrelation between Islam and private international law in Asia from both a theoretical and practical angle. It offers a unique perspective in which cultural and religious diversity meets private international law. This invaluable book provides judges, practitioners, decision-makers, and scholars with a practical guide and an indispensable reference to understanding this complex issue within the Asian context.
