The legal responses to domestic violence (hereinafter DV) in the States drastically changed from no-intervention to pro-arrest policy in the last quarter of the 20th century. The feminist movement since the 1970s, Minneapolis Experiment in 1984 and the following experimental projects affected very much the formation of judicial policy to confront DV. Epoch-making in this stream was the legislation of the Violence Against Women Act in 1994.The arrest of DV perpetrators, though its deterrent effect having been questioned, has different meanings for victims, investigators and judges respectively. They have practical interests to pursue, 'safety' for victims, 'successful prosecution' for investigators and 'deterrent to crime' for judges. The pro-arrest policy is the result of politics with contestation and coordination of these interests. In the process of such politics, the theory of 'gender' functions to analyze power structures of the society. It also highlights the subordination of 'personal life' to 'public structure' given the priority in the judicial system. The purpose of this paper is to overview the arrest policy of DV perpetrators as the response to 'gender-based violence' and to find some key to overcome the coercion of gender structure embedded in judicial process.

Under the Constitution of Japan, children must be considered as being the main focus of basic human rights, and they should be accorded security because of the existence of these constitutional rights. But children in our country have hitherto been dealt with as 'objects to be protected', in the same way that women and old people are protected under separate administrative procedures. Since this is 'the year of the child in the world.' this social problem must be reconsidered.In this essay, I seek to analyze the legal phenomena of education as related to the actual condition of the life of children, using the sociology of law as the basis of my methodology. I use this approach, because it is my intention to investigate, in concrete terms, how the rights of children can be secured.

La pensée juridique moderne exclut la vengeance hors de l'espace regi par la loi. Mais Nietzsche soutient que la vengeance est la première structure sociale qui permet de stabiliser le rapport entre les communautés. Dans l'Antiquité, Aristote intègre la vengeance dans l'ordre de la Cité en pensant qu'il est possible de controler la vengeance par la raison, l'essentiel étant de trouver le«juste milieu»dans la pratique vindicative. C'est à l'influence conjointe du stoîcisme et du christianisme qu'il faut attribuer l'exclusion définitive de la vengeance qui se réalisera à l'âge classique. Selon Nietzsche, le ressentiment est né de la vengeance inhibée et spiritualisée. La morale des eclaves, sous forme du judéo-christianisme, a fini par l'emporter sur la morale des maîtres. Le système juridique moderne en est l'avatar essentiel. C'est dans l'idée de révolution que la vengeance se réfugie depuis deux siècles. Et dans cette mesure, l'esprit révolutionnaire et l'esprit de la peine demort ont en commun la référence à la vengeance. Celle-ci trouve un autre asile dans la littérature et certains poètes qui s'associaient au mouvement révolutionnaire étaient souvent sensibles au caractère sublime de la vengeance. En Europe, l'idée de révolution se voit en déclin en même temps que l'abolition définitive de la peine de mort. Et on parle actuellement de la réconciliation nécessaire pour surmonter le conflit historique grave. Mais on doit mettre en question cette opinion qui veut que la réconciliation soit le contraire de la vengeance. Si la vengeance est à l'origine de tout calcul social, la réconciliation s'opère encore dans les limites de la période ouverte et limitée par la vengeance. Quand Derrida propose de distinguer le pardon de la réconciliation, it considère que cette dernière recèle sa propre structure violente. Le padon sur lequel it nous invite à méditer riendrait interrompre à la fois la violence de vengeance et celle de la réconciliation.

This is a study from the standpoint of sociology of law, of controversial points in about twenty among the many issues of partial or deflected education pointed out in elementary and secondary teaching and guidance everywhere in the past ten years. Some twenty cases picked up here are those of which the author has had opportunities to read the reco ds and materials at first hand.The standard of the existing laws most directly leading to the issues of partial or politically colored education in the strictest sense is the regulation of Article 8, Item 2 of the Fundamental Law of Education that states:“The schools prescribed by law shall refrain from political education or other political activities for or against any specific political party.”When parents and local influential people point out as partial or politically colored education, however, they often argue over trifles or dealings of political problems in controversy in present-day Japan. Therefore, the standards and definition of partial education are vague and unclear. Moreover, in those cases, they often try to solve the problems politically and administratively by direct suit to the local Boards of Education or local legislatures, rather than by educative method of discussions in the school.Responses of Boards of Education to these cases vary, but in general, they are compromising and at times they make use of these tendencies of parents and the influentials.When the cases lead to legal punishment, they are dealt with variously as violation of Article 32 of the Local Public Service Law (the duty to obey laws and superior officers' orders) or of the Personnel Authority Regulations (on political actions) or of the Courses of Study or as deviation from textbooks or as not using textbooks, rather than as violation of Article 8, Item 2 of the Fundamental Law of Education.Most of these cases have been given great publicity by mass communication and have come to present educational, legal and social problems peculiar to present-day Japan.These cases are, for the part of elementary and secondary school teachers, clear examples which show that freedom of education, and freedom of teaching in particular, are not guaranteed. This raises an important problem for teachers on the guarantee of professional freedom, but this is only one of the many difficult and complicated problems concerning partial or deflected education yet to be solved between parents and teachers, and between local communities and schools and teachers and teachers' unions.

Despite the thirty years of the implement of the Equal Employment Opportunity Act, gender inequality in employment still remains unsolved. The primary factor of the gender inequality in employment in Japan is the deep-seated stereotyped roles for men and women in Japanese society. Child rearing and household affairs are largely regarded as women’s duties and about 60 percent of female workforce retires for childbearing. The second factor is corporate systems and customs deeply rooted in Japanese business community, which are only superficially gender-neutral. For instance, assessment standards of typical wage systems include subjective criteria that are susceptible to gender views of assessors, e.g. “enthusiasm,” “cooperativeness” and “tractability.” This article analyzes the current status of the doctrine of leading cases in relation to gender inequality in Japan, and proposes development of a framework to enhance the effectiveness of anti-discriminatory legislation, an efficient working- hour law to reduce long working hours of male labor force, and a system to apply the principle of equal pay for equal value work to the norms of lawsuit.

In arguments concerning death and its definition, the social aspect of death, which is beyond the range of natural sciences such as biology and medicine, has often been referred to. The purpose of this paper is to consider this social aspect of death by re-examining the concept of "social death."First, this paper looks into existing usages of the concept of social death and attempts to clarify its meaning. Social death is distinguished from biological death, clinical death, legal death and ritual death. This paper suggests that the defining feature of social death is the termination of one's social existence in the lives of others.Secondly, the relationship between modern social changes and the changing profile of death is considered from the point of view of social death. In contrast to traditional society, social death in modern society has become individualized and can be interpreted in various ways. In cases of the death of persons who are non-intimately related, the process of social death tends to move comparatively quickly, and may sometimes move more rapidly than the process of biological death. On the other hand, in cases of the death of persons who are intimately related, the process of social death moves comparatively slowly and may continue for a long time following biological death. It is pointed out that this discrepancy between the two cases can often poses problems.Finally, the social background of legal death is examined in the light of social death. There are discrepancies between legal death and social death, which pose problems. In many cases, there are "continuing bonds" between the bereaved family and the dead which still exist even after biological death. The paper concludes with an examination of legal professionals' attitudes toward these continuing bonds.

In the last decade of the 20th century, two significant events were held to deal with the pasts which were profoundly traumatized by the crimes against humanity; The Truth and Reconciliation Commission in the Republic of South Africa and the Women's International War Crimes Tribunal on Japan's Military Sexual Slavery.<br>The former avoided the "Nuremberg Option", that is the trial of criminals, in giving priority to establish the national unity and reconciliation. Amnesty was granted to the persons who had made full confession of the truth about their criminal acts with political objectives in the period of Apartheid. This principle of "justice without punishment" was guided not only by some inevitable "material" conditions in the new-born Country, but also by the philosophy of "forgiveness" in its hegelien or arendtien version.<br>By contrast, the latter declared itself to be a renewal of "Tokyo Tribunal" in order to end the culture of impunity. Three days of trial produced the judgement according to which the Japanese Imperial Army' s "comfort women" stations and wartime sexual violence constituted crimes against humanity and the Supreme Commander of the Army and Navy, Emperor Hirohito did have legal responsibilities. Thus the Women's Tribunal, without real judicial effect, contested both the post-war Japanese culture of impunity about war crimes and the international culture of impunity about crimes against women in war.<br>These two events can be highly appreciated as those which offered public spaces where the voices of victims and perpetrators could be heard seriously for the first time.

Students of "law and economics" adopt the rational choice approach. The approach contributes to giving an explanation of unintended consequences which result from aggregation of individuals' rational decisions or behaviors under the constraint of the law. However, it fails to explain why and how the law itself is established. Game theoretical models which formulate the problem of pollution caused by the use of metal-studded tires exemplify the possibility and the limit of the approach.

The present article analyzes the impact of the recent judicial reform on the rural community of Japan. It is based on the multi-methodological study project on rural justice in contemporary Japan. The project has been financially supported by JSPS no. 15330004 and the 21st Century COE program for Kobe University.Firstly, the article reviews the major reforms in national law level. Though Japan has long been suffered from shortage of formal legal resources, the situation is rapidly changing because of the national judicial reform movement in last 10 years. The number of lawyer (bengoshi) in 2005 has increased by 50% compared with that of 1990: The Japan Federation of Practicing Attorneys (Nichibenren) has established the legal advice centers in all jurisdiction of local courts. The regulatory restrictions have been removed in such areas of advertisement and fees: The government enacted the "the comprehensive legal support act" in June 2004. However, the availability of legal services is still severely limited in small towns and cities in non-metropolitan areas.Secondly it examines the nation-wide distribution pattern and its changes, for 1998 to 2002 period, of attorneys (bengoshi) and judicial scribners (shihoshoshi) in local court jurisdictions, and it finds that the attorneys are more concentrated in largest metropolitan areas than the judicial scribners; however, the number of judicial scribners is increasing in more of the urban areas and decreasing in more of the rural areas than the attorneys.Lastly it qualitatively describes how the legal problems are resolved almost without resorting to attorneys in rural areas by reporting 4 case studies of small cities in rural areas. People in those areas usually rely on judicial scribners for legal remedies for such troubles as consumer problems, domestic violence, and debts. They also ask advices of the local police, local government's, especially the consumer protection agencies and their branches. In each of those areas, one or two active attorneys recently opened the publicly funded office of law in the community. It is also noticeable that not a small number of people hesitates to ask advice to the "foreign" attorney even in serious legal troubles.

Japanese judges usually spend their entire legal career as judges. Many of their legal jargons are unique to their professional circle and reflect their cognitive structure about legal issues."Suji" and "suwari" are among such most frequent jargons. "Suji", whose lexical translation is "line", is often used in a phrase "suji ga warui", meaning "suji is bad for this case". Such a phrase might be translated into "this case has a bad logic or an unclear background". The phrase is typically used to describe civil cases, and is less often spoken of by other legal professionals. "Suwari", whose direct translation is "well-seatedness" is similarly phrased, but it is, arguably more often used to describe judgments that are already made at courts of lower level.The present study is an attempt to give quantitative description of these two concepts by a cognitive psychological approach. As the first stage of our study, we made intensive interviews to seven retired or current judges. Based upon the interview result, we structured the questionnaire.As the second and final stage, we sent out the questionnaires to all the retired judges in Japan (1, 120), out of which 339 were returned. The respondents were asked to respond in psychological judgment scales, to fictitious cases in which some crucial details were manipulated as experimental variables. Statistical analyses on these variables are worked out to render experimental description of these concepts as correlates to and functions on more direct legal perceptions.
