Details Japanese Judiciary's passive attitude might have changed after the judicial reforms. The Supreme Court and inferior courts may exercise more judicial review in the 2000s. Although the number of unconstitutional decisions is smaller than that of the US, a review of the legality of administrative action might encourage the Diet more to abolish or modify statutes than a review of the constitutionality of a statute or an administrative disposition might. A review of the legality of administrative action might be better to change the legislature’s action than a decision on constitutionality might be.
