Shigejiro Ogawa (1863-1925) is one of the representative theorists on reformatory education.
The purpose of this paper is to clarify the formation and development of Shigejiro Ogawa's reformatory educational theory.
In this, I divide this formation and development into three periods.
The first term is the period he worked on prison administration (1886-1897). He criticized punishment, and insisted on the importance of education. Above all, he thought morals and rules important. It was the basis of his reformatory educational theory.
The second term is the period he was interested in reformatory education by going abroad to study (1897-1908). He regarded reformatory education as one criminal policy, and thought that the purpose of reformatory education is to reduce crime and protect society.
The third term is his period of social works, when he completed the reformatory educational theory (1908-1925). By accepting Ellen Key's idea of children's rights in Europe, he saw children as holders of rights. He criticized the view of reformatory education as one of the criminal policies, and insisted that it must protect the rights and development of children.
Shigejiro Ogawa was one of the pioneers working on the problem of juvenile delinquents from the view-point of protecting children's rights.
