Takigawa incident
The Kyoto University incident, or Takigawa incident, began in October 1932 when Kyoto Imperial University Faculty of Law Professor Takigawa Yukitori lectured on the need for the judiciary to understand the social roots of deviance when considering individuals who are before them.[1] The climactic moment occurred in May 1933, when Education Minister Hatoyama Ichiro announced that Mr. Yukitori’s theory of criminal law advocated Marxist philosophies and suspended him from teaching and the remaining members of the Faculty of Law resigned from their positions in protest.[2]
