| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As long as the development of science and technology is not accompanied by the legislation or policies to govern this technology, actual social problems will occur that will require the judiciary to take on the initial role of finding resolutions to these problems. Policies and legislation appear in response to the course of litigation, and plaintiffs may intentionally instigate lawsuits in order to have this sort of impact on political issues. These lawsuits have been called policy-oriented lawsuits.
In lawsuits on adverse drug, Japan has aggressively judged the illegality of administrative bodies in order to provide remedy. There have also been cases where litigation has stirred up policy debates that have encouraged the government to establish safety strategy. While it is recognized that such a use of litigation has an impact on drug administration, the time has come to reconsider its function as a forum for administrative and legislative bodies that essentially play direct roles.
