 ベルリン宣言


DECLARATION REGARDING THE DEFEAT OF GERMANY AND THE ASSUMPTION OF SUPREME AUTHORITY WITH RESPECT TO GERMANY BY THE GOVERNMENTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, THE UNION OF SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLICS, THE UNITED KINGDOM AND THE PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT OF THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.


The German armed forces on land, at sea and in the air have been completely defeated and have surrendered unconditionally and Germany, which bears responsibility for the war, is no longer capable of resisting the will of the victorious Powers. The unconditional surrender of Germany has thereby been effected, and Germany has become subject to such requirements as may now or hereafter be imposed upon her.

There is no central Government or authority in Germany capable of accepting responsibility for the maintenance of order, the administration of the country and compliance with the requirements of the victorious Powers.

It is in these circumstances necessary, without prejudice to any subsequent decisions that may be taken respecting Germany, to make provision for the cessation of any further hostilities on the part of the German armed forces, for the maintenance of order in Germany and for the administration of the country, and to announce the immediate requirements with which Germany must comply.

The Representatives of the Supreme Commands of the United States of America, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the United Kingdom and the French Republic, hereinafter called the "Allied Representatives," acting by authority of their respective Governments and in the interests of the United Nations, accordingly make the following Declaration:

The Governments of the United States of America, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the United Kingdom, and the Provisional Government of the French Republic, hereby assume supreme authority with respect to Germany, including all the powers possessed by the German Government, the High Command and any state, municipal, or local government or authority. The assumption, for the purposes stated above, of the said authority and powers does not effect the annexation of Germany.

The Governments of the United States of America, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the United Kingdom, and the Provisional Government of the French Republic, will hereafter determine the boundaries of Germany or any part thereof and the status of Germany or of any area at present being part of German territory.

In virtue of the supreme authority and powers thus assumed by the four Governments, the Allied Representatives announce the following requirements arising from the complete defeat and unconditional surrender of Germany with which Germany must comply:

徴兵の詔（徴兵令詔書及ヒ徴兵告諭）　1872年12月28日

徴兵令詔書及び徴兵告諭（口語訳） 　今回、全国募兵の件に付き、別紙の詔書の通り徴兵令が仰せ出され、その定めるところの条々、各々天皇の趣意を戴き、下々の者に至るまで遺漏なきように公布しなさい。全体として詳細は陸軍・海軍両省と打ち合わせをしなさい。この趣旨を通達する。 　ただし、徴兵令および徴募期限については追って通達するべきものとする。 （別紙） 詔書の写し  　私（明治天皇）が考えるに、往昔は郡県の制度により、全国の壮年の男子を募って、軍団を設置し、それによって国家を守ることは、もとより武士・農民の区別がなかった。中世以降、兵は武士に限られるようになり、兵農分離が始まって、ついに封建制度を形成するようになる。明治維新は、実に2千有余年来の一大変革であった。この際にあたり、海軍・陸軍の兵制もまた時節に従って、変更しないわけにはいかない。今日本の往昔の兵制に基づいて、海外各国の兵制を斟酌し、全国から兵を徴集する法律を定め、国家を守る基本を確立しようと思う。おまえたち、多くのあらゆる役人は手厚く、私（明治天皇）の意志を体して、広くこれを全国に説き聞かせなさい。 明治5年（壬申）11月28日 　わが国古代の兵制では、国をあげて兵士とならなかったものはいなかった。有事の際は、天皇が元帥となり、青年壮年兵役に耐えられる者を募り、敵を征服すれば兵役を解き、帰郷すれば農工商人となった。もとより後世のように両刀を帯びて武士と称し、傍若無人で働かずに生活をし、甚だしい時には人を殺しても、お上が罪を問わないというようなことはなかった。 　そもそも、神武天皇は珍彦を葛城の国造に任命し、以後軍団を設け衛士・防人の制度を始めて、神亀天平の時代に六府二鎮を設けて備えがなったのである。保元の乱・平治の乱以後、朝廷の軍規が緩み、軍事権は武士の手に落ち、国は封建制の時代となって、人は兵農分離とされた。さらに後世になって、朝廷の権威は失墜し、その弊害はあえていうべきものもなく甚だしいものとなった。 　ところが、明治維新で諸藩が領土を朝廷に返還し、1871年（明治4）になって以前の郡県制に戻った。世襲で働かずに生活していた武士は、俸禄を減らし、刀剣を腰からはずすことを許し、士農工商の四民にようやく自由の権利を持たせようとしている。これは上下の身分差をなくし、人権を平等にしようとする方法で、とりもな...
