Examining "law" within society and history
The Chuluu Lab studies "law" broadly, from multiple perspectives within society and history.
The lab mainly researches legal history, and also draws on the perspectives of sociology of law and legal anthropology.
Its current topics are comparative Asian legal history, Mongolian legal history, the environmental legal history of Inner Asia, and environmental and climate justice.
At the Graduate School of Frontier Sciences, the lab is in charge of a graduate seminar on environmental and climate justice.

Centered on legal history, the lab examines "law" broadly and from multiple perspectives within society and history. It works on courts in premodern Asia and on Mongolian law and history, and also studies environmental and climate justice in Asia.
*Illustrative imageComparing Courts in Premodern Asia
Drawing on court record documents produced at local government offices in Japan, Mongolia, Korea, China, and elsewhere, the lab compares local trials in premodern Asia. It aims to clarify how far states sought to realize social justice.
*Illustrative imageEmpires and Law
The lab examines what institutions various premodern empires established, and what kind of justice they sought to realize, when governing many culturally distinct "peoples" within a single state.
*Illustrative imageMongolian Law and History
The lab covers Mongolian law and history broadly, including land ownership and hunting norms. It also conducts fieldwork on law and social order in contemporary Mongolian society (such as "law and religion" and "law in rural areas"), widening its scope to societies in Central Asia as well.
