公众参与行政立法的民主性探讨

行政机关运行体制与行政立法的民主性有一种内在的紧张关系。由于传统的直接民主与间接民主都带有这样那样的局限性,使得行政立法既需要直接民主,让公众充分参与去自主立法的同时,又不得不放弃直接民主的方式,而采用间接民主制度进行行政立法。但与此同时,间接民主的监督问题无法很好克服,因而一种新的民主理论——协商民主——被各国所导入。

A Probe of the Democracy of Public Participation in Administrative Legislation

There is an intense relationship between the operating system of administrative organs and the democracy of administrative legislation.The various limitations with traditional direct democracy and indirect democracy have lead to the necessity of direct democracy in administrative legislation.However,with the participation of the public in the autonomy of legislation direct democracy must make way for indirect democratic system.Meanwhile,since it is hard to solve the supervision problems in direct democracy,therefore a new democratic theory,namely consultative democracy,has been adopted in many countries.
