 note = {Japan’s current constitutionally-guaranteed right to petition as well as laws and regulations detailing the procedures for exercising this right have emerged as part of a centuries old process through which people have sought to have their voice heard in state affairs. This paper looks at the development of the right to petition in Japan’s modern constitutions, relevant laws and regulations, legal theories and judicial decisions, and shows how the right to petition has evolved into a quasi-political right, supplementing and enhancing representative democratic systems and administrative organs.日本憲法で保障された現在の請願権、そしてこの権利を行使するまでの手順を具体化した法規制は、国民が自らの意思を政治に反映させようと努力してきた長年の過程の中で生まれた。本稿では、日本の近代憲法下での請願権の発展と、関連法規制、法理論や判例に焦点を当て、請願権が如何にして民主的代議制や行政機関を補完、強化する準政治的権利に変化したのかを明らかにする。},
