|---|---|
| Specialized Field(s) | Constitutional history, comparative legal history |
| Current Research Themes | I study the formation and development of the Meiji constitutional system from the standpoint of the history of intellectual society and international relations. By approaching the history of Japan’s constitution from both inside and outside, rather than simply as a phenomenon of one country, I hope the results of this research will contribute to international society. |
