The purpose of such a comparative enquiry is to show that the latter process in the Japanese language is quite different from the former process in the English language, which has given birth to the modern concept of constitution guaranteeing the legally-enforceable bill of human rights. For reasons which are set out in this paper, the mythologisation of Magna Carta helped establish the rule of law, while that of Article 9 tends to undermine it.

It refers to the inadvertent delivery of the foetus through a transverse incision given over the vagina during a caesarean section (C-section). It is a rather uncommon complication of C-section encountered at advanced dilation which can lead to maternal complications such as traumatic postpartum hemorrhage, injury to bladder, ureters and difficult reconstruction of vagina. Here, we present a case report of inadvertent laparoelytrotomy during C-section.

A number of these matters were examined in an earlier article in 1995 in Justice of the Peace "The Dark Cloud over Japanese Criminal Justice : Abuse of Suspects and Forced Confessions" ( Andrew Watson (1995) 159 JPN pp.516-9 and 534-7.
