Research Abstract	In 2009 I researched about political thoughts before the establishment of Imperial diet, and in 2010 after the establishment. I also collected a number of historical materials in this two years. Regarding the former I analyzed how Japanese people repulsed or modified political theories of Europe and USA. Regarding the later I analyzed the relation between political thoughts and real Politics. As a result, I could learn a lot of useful information about thoughts on Political Parties in Meiji Japan as a foundation of future research.
