Biography

Raised in London, Joyman holds BA (starred first) and PhD degrees in history from Cambridge and Yale universities, respectively, and LLM and PhD degrees in law from UCL.

Joyman has been a visiting scholar at Sciences Po Paris, McGill University, National Taiwan University and the University of Tokyo.

Research interests

Joyman's principal interests lie in private law in the Asia-Pacific region, especially trusts, property and legal history. The nature of "legal transplant" in non-Western contexts means that forms of hybridity, including between common law and civil law, come to the foreground, which often requires an interdisciplinary (historical) approach. He is also interested in land law in Francophone Sub-Saharan Africa.
