Republicanism' in the British Constitutional Law

在本研究中，笔者厘清了共和主义的概念，强调了共和主义在宪法学上的重要性。公民主义是一种政治理论，强调公民的公民作用，以制约政治权力，并鼓励他们参与政治，以抑制国家权力的任意使用。作为这一批判性研究的一部分，我从共和主义的角度考察了日本的非专业法官制度。我还研究了英国宪法应该根据共和主义解释的论点。最后，为了保护人权，我得出了应该重新评估议会民主的结论，并更加相信共和主义的优点。

In this study, I clarified the concept of republicanism and emphasized the importance of it on Constitutional Law. Republicanism is a political theory that emphasizes the civic role of citizens to check political power, and encourages them to participate in politics to restrain the arbitrary use of power from the state. As a part of this critical study, I considered the Japanese lay judge system from the viewpoint of republicanism. I also examined arguments that the British Constitution should be interpreted according to republicanism. Finally, to protect human rights, I came to the conclusion that parliamentary democracy should be reevaluated, and became more convinced in the merits of republicanism.
