A concise, practical guide to Japan’s new Civil Code and its treaty relations.

This edition explains the code’s provisions as they relate to foreigners and business, without assuming expert legal background. It clarifies how the code is structured and how it interacts with the treaties that abolish extraterritoriality.

The book surveys the code’s three books, outlining general rules, real rights, and obligations, with emphasis on how juristic acts operate in practice. It also discusses artificial persons, contracts, duties, and the treatment of mortgages, deposits, and suretyship, all in plain language useful to readers new to Japanese law.

Plain explanations of key concepts like juristic acts, representation, and validity.
Clear discussion of how foreign status is affected by treaty commitments.
Structured overview of the code’s three-book layout and major topics.
Practical examples that illuminate contracts, deposits, mortgages, and obligations.

Ideal for readers curious about how Japan’s civil law is designed to govern private rights and business, and how it fits into international agreements.
