Administrative Law Theories in the Era of Law School Education : Their Reconstruction for Utility Both for Practice and Theory

2003年和2004年，对传统的行政法教育进行了彻底的重新审视。其中一个结论是，它是面向国家政府或地方政府的雇员的。尽管行政法教育的新趋势聚焦于地方政府在日本行政法进程中的重要作用，但它仍然不是法律界关注的焦点。因此，重视法律职业的立场对于重塑传统的行政法教育具有重要意义。另一个结论是，消除行政法与宪法之间、行政法诉讼教学与民事诉讼教学之间的学术壁垒。后者也是废除公私法区别的反复试验的延伸。根据前两年的研究活动，2005年进行了教育发展。从2004年开始，在更多开放式行政法理论的探索中取得了成功，并开始将其转化为教材在法学院使用。

During the years of 2003 and 2004, thorough reexamination of the conventional administrative law education was conducted. One of the conclusions was that it was oriented to employees of the national government or local governments. Although the new trend in administrative law education focused on the important functions of local governments in Japanese administrative law process, it was still not for the eyes of legal professions. Thus, emphasis on the standpoints of the legal professions was important for remodeling of the conventional education of administrative law.Another conclusion was that to get rid of the academic barriers between administrative law and constitutional law and those between teachings of administrative law litigation and teachings of civil procedure. The latter is also an extension of repeated trials for abolishing the public - private law distinction.Based on the research activities during the preceding two years, educational development was made during the year of 2005. Exploration in more open-ended administrative law theories has been successful, and it has come to be changed into educational materials for use in law schools which started in 2004.
