项目摘要

This research aimed to develop legal education methods in order to encourage students to perform creative legal thinking. The study was done on the following 4 objectives and the results were integrated to develop the legal education methods : (1) the theoretical clarification of fundamentals of creating law, (2) the analysis of legal creation in practices and education, (3) the development of education methods for creative legal minds and (4) the development of legal education support systems for this purpose.(1) This research defined "creating law" as producing legal sentences which cannot be deduced from given legal knowledge and clarified the logical structure of legal reasoning in law application in which one produces fact statements from evidential data and concretized as well as systematized rules from statutes. This study also clarified the ground of value judgments of produced rules through sociological surveys of people's senses and the theories of law and economics. (2) The research clarified the dimensions promoting student's creative legal thinking in American as well as continental law education. (3) It developed the education methods for creative legal thinking which are based on realistic problems, guided under the framework of the structure of legal knowledge and executed through debates, using a legal knowledge base system, a debate system or a Socratic methods support system. (4) It developed legal education support systems for creative legal mind: Legal Knowledge Base System LES-7 and 8, Socratic Methods Support System LESS and Online Legal Debate Support System.Consequently, we have developed legal education methods for creative legal minds which are practically very efficient in law schools. Our research has made clear next research tasks to realize a consistent, spiral legal education for creative legal minds from the first year courses through the third year courses in law schools.

本研究旨在开发法律教育方法，以鼓励学生进行创造性的法律思维。本研究围绕以下四个目标进行，并整合研究结果来发展法律教育方法：（1）对法律创造基础的理论澄清，（2）实践和教育中法律创造的分析，（3）法律创造的实践和教育。 (4)为此目的开发法律教育支持系统。(1)本研究将“创造法律”定义为产生不能从给定的法律知识中推导出来的法律句子，并澄清了逻辑结构法律中的法律推理一种应用程序，其中人们根据证据数据生成事实陈述，并根据法规生成具体且系统化的规则。本研究还通过人们感官的社会学考察以及法经济学理论，阐明了所产生的规则的价值判断依据。 (2)研究明确了美国及大陆法学教育中促进学生创造性法律思维的维度。（三）运用法律知识库体系、辩论体系或苏格拉底方法支撑体系，开发基于现实问题、以法律知识结构为指导、以辩论为手段的创造性法律思维教育方法。（4）开发了创造性法律思维的法律教育支持系统：法律知识库系统LES-7和8、苏格拉底方法支持系统LESS和在线法律辩论支持系统。在法学院实际上非常有效。我们的研究明确了下一步的研究任务，即从法学院一年级课程到三年级课程，实现对创造性法律思维的一致、螺旋式法律教育。
