Description: Mark Ramseyer has been a leading force in bringing to bear the methods of Law and Economics to a continuing analysis of the Japanese legal and economic system. He has deliberately assumed an iconoclastic position in debunking a number of widely held beliefs about Japan. In this paper we analyse Ramseyer’s contribution and conclude that he has too frequently let ideological objectives interfere with what should be cool headed analysis. While asking many of the right questions he unfortunately has let a priori assumptions determine his answers.
