A Study of Legal Practice and Practical Law in the Edo Period

1在江户时代，德川幕府的官方大法官实际上是武官(委员)手下的Tomeyaku(会议厅的录音官员)和Machi-Bugyosho Yoriki(市委员会的助手)。他们从事的是法律实践，主要受判例的支配。他们编纂了司法判例，编辑了许多实用的法律书籍。通过对日常工作材料的收集和分析，本研究的主要结果如下：(1)认为江户时代的法律实践具有不同于西方法学的法律技术和逻辑体系，可称之为一种“实践法”。这种经验技术的积累使我们很容易接受明治以后的现代西方法律。(2)我展示了德川幕府诉讼制度的实际情况，部分是根据Hyojosho(会议厅；1738年至1787年…的民事诉讼)的司法统计数据更多)，大阪-mchibugyosho(大阪市委员会办公室；1715年至1727年民事诉讼和1711年至1725年惩罚)，San-bugyosho(三个委员会办公室；(3)我印制了三本法律书籍(1)《Hatta-shi Shozo Koyo Shomotsu Mokuroku》(Hatta-shi Shozo Koyo Shomotsu Mokuroku)，(2)《Osaka oshioki oboegaki》(《大阪行政备忘录》)，(3)《Oyakusho hoji torihakarai torihaKarai atararisoro Shina oboe》(《杂项公务处理改革备忘录》)，它们是由大阪真知武藏Yoriki编辑拥有的，是了解江户时代的法律实践和实践法律的很好材料。我们可以认识到德川司法机构拥有的法律书籍的多样性((1))，大阪真知武义所民事诉讼程序的发展，特别是恩乔2(1745)((2)和(3))改革的细节。2我计划从司法专业法(Hosoho)的发展(包括判例法、法律实践和实践法)的角度推进这项研究。较少

1 In the Edo period, the official justice of the Tokugawa Shognate in fact were Hyojosho Tomeyaku (Recording Officers in the Conference Chamber) and Machi-bugyosho Yoriki (Aides in the Town Commission) under the Bugyo (Commissioners). They were engaged in the legal practice, and ruled mainly by the precedents. They compiled the judicial precedents and edited many practical law books. By gathering and analyzing materials for their routine work, the main results of this study are as follows:(1)I argued that the legal practice in the Edo period had a system of legal technique and logic, which was not the same as the occidental jurisprudence, but was to be called a kind of "practical law." Such accumulation of empirical technique made it easy to receive the modern occidental law after the Meiji period.(2)I showed the actual circumstances of the Tokugawa Shogunal litigation system partly according to the judicial statistics of Hyojosho (the Conference Chamber ; civil suits from 1738 to 1787 … More ), Osaka-machibugyosho (Osaka Town Commission office ; civil suits from 1715 to 1727 and punishments from 1711 to 1725), San-bugyosho (Three Commissions Offices ; punishments from 1863 to 1867).(3)I printed three law books (1)"Hatta-shi shozo koyo shomotsu mokuroku" (The List of the Books for Official Business Owned by Hatta Family), (2)"Osaka oshioki oboegaki" (A Memorandum of the Administration in Osaka), (3)"Oyakusho shoji torihakarai aiaratamarisoro shina oboe" (A Memorandum of Miscellaneous Official Matters Treatment Reformed), they were edited and owned by Hatta Gorozaemon, Osaka-machibugyosho Yoriki (Aide in Osaka Town Commission Office), quite good materials to know what the legal practice and the practical law in the Edo period were. We can recognize the variety of law books that Tokugawa judiciary owned ((1)), the development of the civil procedure in Osaka-machibugyosho, especially the details of the reform in Enkyo 2(1745) ((2) and (3)).2 I make a plan to progress this study from the viewpoint of the development of "Hosoho" (judiciaries' professional law), which includes case law, legal practice and practical law.
