- Abstract
The great transformation from industrial to sustainable society is one of the most important challenges today. ‘Sustainability’ is a key concept to constitute the society of the 21st century. The modern legal system, which has operated as an infrastructure of industrial society, must adapt itself to the transformation. In the following I shall consider the new function and content of property rights on agricultural land in Japan which can promote sustainable agriculture. The transformation from industrial to sustainable society cannot be realised in a nation-state. Without a common Asian legal perspective like EU Law, we could not have a view of sustainable Asian society. We need now a new method of comparative law, namely comparative ‘Law and Society’. A key concept would be “universality and context of law”.
