内容简介
中国宪法学体系的构建当取决于宪法学自身基本范畴的构建,基本范畴是评价一个学科是否成熟、完善的主要标志。本书把当代中国宪法学基本范畴概括为八组十六个范畴,即民主与共和、宪法与法治、基本权利(人权)与国家权力、宪法职权与宪法责任、宪法规范与宪法效力、宪法救济与宪法诉讼、宪法概念与宪法解释、宪法监督与宪法审查。它们大致勾勒出了中国宪法学的基本框架,整个基本范畴体系构成个内部相通、外部协调的有机联系的整体。各个范畴之间具有逻辑同一性基础,既有独立的价值,又体现其在体系中的不孤立与相容性。每个范畴发挥作用,都依赖于其他范畴提供支持。八对范畴依顺序展现的是宪法运行的全过程,共同致力于宪政理想的实现。这十六个基本范畴之间的运作是一个有机联系的整体,互为表里,相得益彰,保障公民基本权利、限制国家权力的宪法规范是裁决宪法纠纷的依据,但是只有经过有效适当的解释宪法各个概念之后,才能在宪法诉讼中充分完成宪法救济,追究违宪者的宪法责任,实施宪法监督,开展宪法审查,体现宪法根本大法的法效力,完成民主与共和的宪政理想,宪法之治意义上的法治方才实现。
