21330005, To Revitalize Democracy Against the Tide of the Globalization : Comparative Study of Constitutional Theory and Politics, By the comparative study of constitutional law and the analysis of the constitutional theories in Japan and abroad, we make it clear that(1) Almost all advanced countries have some difficulties in democratic process under the historical conditions of" Post-democracy"(Colin Crouch), but(2) the problems could differ according to the political conditions, constitutional arrangements and so on. So we should have enough attention to the problems made by“Post-democracy", but also, we should not overestimate that theory.;We also show that the theory of“legal constitutionalism=liberal democracy", which is now mainstream theory in Japan and other western constitutional democracies, has difficulty in dealing with the challenge of serious gaps between the wealth and the poor, which is getting more and more serious today, both domestically and globally.;So we could tell that the reconstruction of the democratic constitutional theory is necessary today, and we should study the theory of“public sphere"not only in abstract or philosophical level, but also in the context of the constitutional arrangements and political institutions in each country. In this research, we have done some of that study.
