Abstract

This article is the essence of lecture which the author gave at the academic conference of the Japan Association of International Liberal Arts on 13th March 2021. In the Twenty-First Century we can recognize only twenty-eight countries which held monarchy among almost two hundred countries in the world. Does it mean the monarchy would disappear from human history in the near future? The author investigates special role of the British Queen, Elizabeth II, who has reigned since 1952 in contemporary political and diplomatic world. She is the Head of State, not only for British people, but also for fifteen more countries as Canada and Australia; moreover, as the symbol of national unity, she has given her state continuity and stability. We also would be able to know her important role as the Head of Commonwealth of Nations which has challenged to protect human rights and prevent Global Warming since 1970s.
