Constitutional dialogue in common law Asia Po Jen Yap.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

In a comprehensive examination of the constitutional systems of Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Singapore, Po Jen Yap contributes to a field that has traditionally focused on Western jurisdictions. Drawing on the history and constitutional framework of these Asian law systems, this book examines the political structures and traditions that were inherited from the British colonial government and explores how dialogic review can be applied to four core constitutional concerns: freedom of expression, freedom of religion, right to equality, and criminal due process rights.
