Presentation

The growing importance of Asia in academic cooperation and in particular the need for restructuring and renovating the Central Asian systems has led in recent years Kazakh and Korean law-colleagues from al-Farabi University (Almaty, Kazakhstan) and InHa University (Inch'eon, Korea) to reflect with French colleagues on how to conduct joint research.

This has led to holding international conferences, the proceedings of which were published in Belgium (Peter Lang) in French or English (and in Russian in Kazakhstan) on the following three general themes:

1. "Regionalism and its limits : Franco-Kazakh cross-views" (2016a in French in Belgium; 2016b in Russian in Kazakhstan, 182 p.)
2. "Mutations of society and legal responses : Franco-Asian perspectives compared" (2017a in French in Belgium ; 2017b in Russian in Kazakhstan, 280 p.)
3. "On the Asian and European origins of legal and political systems"(2018 in English in Belgium, 298 p.)

   The will of Asian partners is to hold the 4th conference in 2019 at al-Farabi University (Almaty, Kazakhstan), thereby starting a new cycle of three conferences (2019 in Kazakhstan, 2021 in France, 2023 in Korea) in order to confirm the long-standing synergy between the Kazakh, Korean and French partner-universities ; and to open joint research to Chinese and Russian colleagues as contacts were established with Jilin university (China) and the Russian Academy of Science (Moscow).
