This paper suggests that Japanese scholars should pay attention to the world-wide phenomenon of "feminization" of the legal profession. Reflecting on some findings of my three research projects since 1990, I define the current condition of Japanese women lawyers with "tokenism" and offer some explanation for the features of their status. My contention is that if Japan is to face "feminization" of the legal profession in the near future, we should now learn what consequeces it might bring about from the experience in other contries.<br>In the era of feminization, a new research agenda departed from the description (whether quantitative or qualitative) of women lawyers is called for. Some feminist scholars now urge that the major questions to be asked in the study of the legal profession should "examine the role of gender difference, as socially constructed, might play in the transformation of law practice". (Menkel-Meadow, 1989).
