There is a recent news story that Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution, exactly the Japanese people who have kept and followed this law are nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Even PRIO (The International Peace Research Institute, Oslo) that has predicted Nobel Award Winners every year forecasts the Japanese people have the most potential of becoming winner.

The official English translation of the article is:
ARTICLE 9. Aspiring sincerely to an international peace based on justice and order, the Japanese people forever renounce war as a sovereign right of the nation and the threat or use of force as means of settling international disputes. To accomplish the aim of the preceding paragraph, land, sea, and air forces, as well as other war potential, will never be maintained. The right of belligerency of the state will not be recognized.
'일본 국민은 국제평화를 성실히 희구하고 국권의 발동에 의거한 전쟁 및 무력에 의한 위협 또는 무력의 행사는 국제분쟁을 해결하는 수단으로서 영구히 포기한다. 이를 위해 육해공군 및 여타 어떠한 전력도 보유하지 않는다. 국가의 교전권 역시 인정치 않는다.'
On May 3rd, 1947, 2 years later the end of World War 2, the Constitution came into effect.
The reason that Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution becomes a potential candidate seems to be linked with the unstable international situation lately. This law is able to let us know how important efforts to keep peace are at the present time when several countries don't hesitate to use force for their own national interests.
In addition, it can be one cause that Abe's pursuit of revising Japan's Peace Constitution has triggered strong reaction from neighboring countries victimized by Japan's past aggression.

The reason people are concerned about Abe's pursuit of revising Japan's Peace Constitution is that Japan can make war in the future by their needs through revising Peace Constitution. It means that Japan will be changed to be another Japan that can make war.
Japan's Peace Constitution has also meaning that Japan accepts their responsibility caused by war made by themselves and repents their act in the past war. While revising Peace Constitution means Japan will bury completely their wrong behavior acted in the past war.
Abe's administration that tries to revise Peace Constitution under the cause of making stronger Japan will have a big burden that Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution draws more public attention, even though Peace Constitution fails to win Nobel Peace Prize.
