일본 대학 법문학부의 탄생과 제도적 전개 ―한국에서의 법문학부 도입 가능성 검토― = The Birth and Institutional Development of Japanese School of Law and Literature －A Review of the Possibility of Introducing the School of Law and Literature in Korea Universities－

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study reconstructs the establishment process of the Japanese Department of Law and Literature within a historical and institutional context and examines its educational achievements and structural limitations by analyzing the types and operational status. In particular, it is noted that the Department of Law and Literature failed to institutionalize the convergence between disciplines, despite its achievements in introducing a humanistic perspective to the education of law over a certain period. Based on this, the study concludes that practical curriculum integration, consistent evaluation, adequate financial and personnel systems, and clearly defined educational goals are essential for the sustainability of a convergence-based undergraduate school. Furthermore, this study critically reviews the current state of Korean university education in light of these Japanese experiences and presents the possibilities and limitations of the School of Law and Literature as an institutional alternative for reconstructing the relationship between law and the humanities. In doing so, this study aims to deepen the comparative-historical understanding of legal education convergence models and contribute to the exploration of a new combination of law and humanities within the Korean higher education system.
