Prof. Normann WITZLEB<\/a> has been the guest editor of a Special Issue on \u201cTort Law Reform in Asia and Beyond\u201d in Tort Law Review<\/em>.<\/p>

The Special Issue features nine articles that were first presented at the conference \u201cTorts Law Reform in Asia and Beyond<\/a>\u201d organised by the Obligations Lab Asia of the CUHK LAW Centre for Comparative and Transnational Law on 13 May 2022.
