Research and Education Policy

As society changes, new legal systems have been established, especially in the field of security law, and as a result, legal relationships between multiple parties have become more complicated. However, there are many cases where the resolution of complicated rights relationships is left blank, and the issue is what criteria should be used to reconsider the priority relationships between rights. Therefore, I would like to continue researching this issue, using American real estate law and contract law as a basis.
I would like to take advantage of your flexible minds and discuss and examine together the history of the system, changes in the social background, and current laws and issues.

Message
  1. First, let us carefully study the discussion of civil law in our country.
  2. Before coming to a decision on a topic, gather as much material as possible and read it from the writer's perspective.
  3. It is essential for researchers to understand foreign law. In doing so, it is important not to simply interpret foreign law within the framework of Japanese law, but to look at the background of the systems in that country.
  4. Always try to read legal journals and keep an eye on practice and social issues.
