Criminal Responsibility of Civil Servant for Neglect of Duty

这项研究的重点是对公务的错误行动或不作为造成致命结果或人身伤害的案件，目的是调查公务员个人应承担的刑事责任的合理程度，以防止这种责任不适当地扩大。通过对日本和德国围绕不作为或过失犯罪中行为人、共同行为人和帮助者的区别等主题展开的学术争论进行理论分析，对日本近年来关注的一些重要的、实际的刑事案件进行了富有成效的系统思考。

This research is focused on the cases, in which wrong action or omission against official duties caused fatal results or bodily injuries, aimed at investigating the reasonable extent of criminal responsibility which is to be taken by public servants individually, in order to prevent inappropriate expansion of such responsibility. Through the theoretical analysis of the academic controversy in Japan and Germany, which is discussed around the theme such as the distinction between perpetrator, joint perpetrator and aider in case the criminal offence is committed by omission or negligence, it was enabled to make fruitful, systematic consideration especially on some important, actual criminal cases, which are paid attention recently in Japan.
