Control of Education
This chapter discusses the control of education in Japan. The basic characteristics of the present system of control in Japanese education have been determined by the Constitution of Japan of 1946 and the Fundamental Law of Education of 1947. The Constitution established the principles of democratic government by which the popularly elected National Diet was vested with the power to set up policies relating to various spheres of national life, including education. Once the policies are set, the execution of them is handed to the Executive, the Prime Minister and his Ministers. Of these, the Minister of Education is responsible for national education, but under the principles of democratic government, his area of jurisdiction is defined and limited by laws. His executive power is also limited by the principle of local self-government set up by the Constitution in which the local population is given certain powers of self-determination in such matters with which they are directly concerned such as education.
