The Debates on the Foreigners’Right to Take Office as Public Employees in Japan

在全球化的趨勢下，勞力的國際流動已是非常普遍之事。今日，這些外籍人士不只在民間企業，也在政府機關工作成為公務人員。可是基於國民主權原理，外國人就任公職的權利往往成為一項爭論的議題。所以本文便是以日本為例子，探討外國人的公務就職權之爭議。首先本文以政治參與的權利為中心，探討日本對外國人的人權保障。其次則是針對外國人成為日本之中央及地方政府公務員所引發的爭議做介紹。第三則是分析東京都之外國人與管理職位考試的重要判例。

Under the principle of national sovereignty, however, whether foreigners can be employed by governments as public employees is an arguable issue. This paper, therefore, takes Japan’s cases and studies the debates on the foreigners’right to take office as public employees. Firstly, this paper focuses on the political rights and examines the guarantee of foreigners’human rights in Japan. Secondly, it introduces the debates on the foreigners’right to become public employees both in the central and local governments.
