| Research Abstract |
The last quarter of the 20th Century experienced a significant change in international legal order with gender at its center as shown in a series of international conferences organized by the UN. The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (Women's Convention) and its Optional Protocol, among others, shall be acclaimed for they have provided tools to re-construct international legal order from a gender perspective. This research tried to construct a feminist international jurisprudence using gender perspective and the Women's Convention.
This research was a collaboration of 20 investigators and 10 research associates over the two years from April 2001 to March 2003. Chapter 1 showed the change of international law and international relations required by both academic and social developments of feminism. Chapter 2 examined the adopting process, contents, and future possibility of the Optional Protocol for it symbolized the structural change of international law. Chapter 3 studied how women's human rights have been incorporated into the practice of other UN human rights treaty bodies as well as regional human rights organs. Chapter 4 examined gender perspective introduced to national laws in several countries. Chapter 5 proposed a prospect for the future in regard to Japan's ratification of the Optional Protocol. In addition, the group studied and translated a book by Hilary Charlesworth & Christine Chinkin, The Boundary of International Law: Feminist Analysis (Manchester University Press, 2000) into Japanese for it provides basics for feminist international jurisprudence.
