外国宪政与司法审查制度及其启示

推行宪政的关键在于首先制定一部合乎正义的宪法,然后要切实保障宪法作为根本规范的最高效力,对国家各种活动的合宪性进行审查和监督。正是基于这个目的,司法审查制度成为落实宪政精神、推动社会变革与法治发展的主要驱动和矫正装置。任何制度都存在不足,为了克服司法审查的缺陷,有必要使用合理的宪法解释理论,建立起司法审查制与宪政互动的框架体制。

Constitutional Politics and the Judicial Investigation System of the West and Their Implications

The authors hold that the key to the implementation of constitutional politics is the establishment of a just and fair constitution and the supreme power of the constitution in regulating and supervising all state activities, and to achieve this purpose, the judicial investigation system is the corrective device that guarantees the realization of the constitutional spirit, promotion of social progress and legal development. The paper further points out that, since no system is perfect, the judicial investigation system based on the proper interpretation of the constitution ought to be established to overcome the defects of legal administration and to accomplish a framework wherein judicial investigation and constitutional politics run side by side.
