Freedom of press is the most essential one of all human rights.
It is achieved through continuous hard struggles by all people
and it will be maintained only by also continuous hard
struggles. A freedom of press without the control of
governmental authority and previous examination is an important
factor of one country, especially for a modern democratic
country, As when people need to make a political decision, they
need to, first of all, require information broadly, then to
digest all the different opinions and consider all these
opinions, then the final decision can be made. In the
parliamentery system , publlisher is the ommunicating and
inspecing machine between people, parliament, whose members
were elected by people, and all other government representives.
Therefore, the public mission of press is very important. In
this artcle, I will begin by stating the progressing of Japan''s
freedom of press and then go on to discuss the problems about
the examination ceitera against Constitution on publications,
regulations of obscene publications, and prohibition on
inspecting publications and so on. At last, in hapter 5, I will
compare the protecting institutions for reedom of press
betweeen Japan, America,and Taiwan. I wish it can help Taiwan''s
publish business through the discussion ofthis article, and
expect deeply that our government can effectuate the protecting
institutions for freedom of press which was issued by our
Constitutions.
