| Research Abstract |
Trust isn't used in Japan as an efficient means to administrate the property of others, even though the management the property of old persons or the flexible succession of estate is demanded. One of the reasons is said that trust has the legal structure that is not consistent with the conception of property in Japanese civil law. This research therefore focused upon the question if the trust is really contradicting to the conception of property. To know if the trust is inconsistent to the principles deduced from property in Japanese law, we have looked into the history of the conception of property, the significance of its principles, and their range today. At the same time, we compared trust with mandate and agency to make it clear the characteristics of trust, because these two are used also to administrate the property of others.
