Legal and Institutional Vision of East Asian Regionalism : a Comparative Study of the Role of Law in Regionalism in Europe, the Americas and East Asia

本研究报告有两个研究目的：（a）比较欧洲、美洲和东亚法律在区域主义中的作用;（B）提出一个可能的东亚共同体的法律的和体制构想。第一个目标是通过我们每月的研讨会和2006年的国际会议来实现的，后者导致了Tamio中村（编辑）的出版。《比较视野中的东亚地区主义动态》（东京大学社会科学研究所，2007年）。第二个目标在2007年的一次国际研讨会上实现了，会上提出了《东亚共同体宪章》草案并进行了公开讨论。专题讨论会的会议记录和《东亚共同体宪章》草案出版在一本小册子中：Tamio中村（编辑）《未来的东亚地区主义：东亚宪章的建议》（东京大学社会科学研究所，2008年2月）。

The present study has had two research aims: (a) to compare the role of law in regionalism in Europe, the Americas and East Asia, and (b) to propose a possible legal and institutional vision of an East Asian Community. The first aim was pursued through our monthly seminars and an international conference in 2006, the latter resulted in the publication of Tamio Nakamura (ed.) The Dynamics of East Asian Regionalism in Comparative Perspective (Institute of Social Science, University of Tokyo, 2007). The second aim was accomplished in an international symposium in 2007, where a draft Charter of the East Asian Community was presented and discussed in public. The proceedings of the symposiums together with the draft Charter of the East Asian Community are published in a booklet: Tamio Nakamura (ed.) Future East Asian Regionalism: Proposal for an East Asian Charter (Institute of Social Science, University of Tokyo, February 2008).
