Description

This article tries to examine the various problems about the rule of law from jurisprudential viewpoints. "The rule of law "is a legal principle and political ideal, and there are three kinds of the rule of law. First is the rule of law in the constitutional laws of Western countries. Second is the rule of law in Japanese constitutional law, and third is the rule of law as a political ideal ,which relates to what a good government or legal system should be. At first, the history and development of the rule of law in Western countries' constitutional laws are considered. Next, several legal scholars' different views about the rule of law in Japanese constitutional law are examined. Thirdly,the rule of law as a political ideal is divided into the formal conception and substantive conception, and the formal conception of the rule of law maintained by Lon L.Fuller, J.Raz and R.S.Summers are discussed.
