Talk:Law of Japan

Non-encyclopedic contents

Regrettably, this article seems to be violating at least two of the three core content policies: Wikipedia:Verifiability, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:No original research.

This article lacks citing of reliable sources to support the points. Some parts seem to be non-neutral, sounding like essays or criticisms possibly based on personal prejudice or bias.

We editors are welcome to be bold but also expected to be careful in editing articles. (See Wikipedia:Be bold.) Probably the writers wrote such questionable parts (as I list below) with no maliciousness, I say; however, these parts seem not good as encyclopedia contents.

e.g.:

Subsection "Torts":
There must be no statistical data (at least of official) showing how many individuals choose not to sue as a result of a specific factor. If one gives up filing a civil lawsuit, it cannot be counted precisely.
--Dumpty-Humpty (talk) 10:20, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Paragraph in Section "Criminal law":
No evidence is provided to support any of ALMOST ALL are... / Prosecutors TEND... / such confessions OFTEN... / it is GENERALLY not.... The capitalized expressions to mean high frequency may be groundless.
Whether these are true or not, such situations don't necessarily mean uniqueness of the prosecutorial system.

Subsection "Administrative guidance": This part is digressing from the subject: Law system of Japan. Saying as if it were a bad custom (characteristic of Japan), this part handles administrative guidance only negatively, missing the fact that such governmental actions can often play roles for the public interests of people.
--Dumpty-Humpty (talk) 10:20, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Common among the three parts:
With useless simple comparison, these parts indicate or imply as if Japan were relatively strange as to judicature or governmental administration.

Another problem is that the historical developments section only reports as to the emergence of law in Japan until the mid-700's, though it is portrayed as if it were the complete picture. The entire history of the importation of Chinese Law, the Ritsuryo system, and then feudal law in Japan from the 1200's and through to the modernization beginning in the 1860's is missing. Most of this is in the first four chapters of the Haley book that is included in the references, if anyone is ready to write it all up. AprilInParis (talk) 03:07, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Judicial precedents

Why not mention about the rather interesting influence/effect of the 判例 or the judicial precedent? --Unsigned comment posted by 222.10.252.224 at 22:57, 24 November 2005.

rape

What does the word rape mean in Japan? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.136.213.36 (talk) 18:23, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
