[edit]

my vague understanding was that the legal system in south korea is, not surprisingly, based on the japanese system of the colonial era, which was based on the german legal system. today, it has been much modified, especially towards the anglo-american system. i'm curious if any pre-colonial, in other words, chinese, influences remain at all. these are the details i'd like to see in the history section, if anyone can find good references.

some interesting links, for other editors or myself later. Appleby 18:27, 24 July 2006 (UTC) [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] Appleby 18:27, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]


The history section of the Supreme Court website indicates that Korea had established a modern court system by 1894. It also says:
The modernization of Korea was disrupted by the invasion of Japan. Because of Japan's annexation of Korea, Koreans had to focus their efforts on achieving national independence. However, from the perspective of comparative law, it was an interesting period. This was because Korea adopted the Japanese legal system, which came from the modern European civil law countries. The adoption of the Japanese legal system created the necessary momentum for Korea's eventual assimilation of the modern European civil law system. [7]
So while credit is given to Japan for introducing the concepts, it also seems to indicate an evolution since then towards a continental European system. At any rate, there are a couple books on Korean law at my school's law library, which I intend to check out once I have the bare bones of this article fleshed out a bit more. I'll also be checking out the links you sent up. Thanks. --Zonath 18:32, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Working on getting more of the substantive aspects of Korean law into the article. Using Journal of Korean Law at the moment as a resource. Will branch out a bit once those articles are out of the way. --ZonathTalk 03:18, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Politicking in the prosecutors section?

[edit]

The section on prosecutors seems to adopt a POV in favor of the system of prosecutors and/or President Park. I'm by no means an expert in the subject, but I'd like to see either more sources or a more neutral POV. 184.171.158.222 (talk) 14:34, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
