The Japanese law, formed under the influence of different legal systems, is successful in adopting foreign legal systems without giving up its own values. Japanese law generally cannot be classified as "Civil Law" or "Anglo-American common law". Japanese law is a hybrid legal system. However, due to the Japanese Civil Law, which is governed by the continent of Europe, the Japanese contract law is more characteristic of the continent of Europe. The basic principles of Japanese contractual law are the rule of honesty, contractual freedom and defective liability. The concept of consideration in the Anglo-American contractual law and the rules requiring contracts to be written ("Statute of Frauds" and "parol evidence rule") are not included in the Japanese contractual law. "The principle that the rights arising from private law can be restricted for public welfare" and the rule of law in the Japanese Civil Law is not similar to the examples of the continent of Europe. The Japanese drinking law ensures the protection of herbs and herbs established in commercial life prior to the entry into force of the Continental European law. The importance of Japanese drinking law is similar to the Anglo-American law. In Japan, many laws with the model of American law have been adopted after 1990 with the aim of eliminating (deregulating) government interference in the market. For this reason, the Anglo-American law is also partly important in Japanese contractual law. Finally, such a study on the general principles of the Japanese contractual law also brings a brief explanation of the current developments in the Japanese civil law.
