摘要
宪法的根本法性质是宪法学的基础命题。从历史维度看,宪法的根本法性质既非一成不变也非举世统一。中国法上的根本法观念自近代从西方传入后,经历了一百多年的本土变迁,已形成自己独特的根本法传统。在中国宪法语境下,宪法作为根本法包含了根本法的理念、根本法的形式和根本法的内容三重内涵。根本法理念表达了一种法治的权力观念,它反对无限的、绝对的、专断的权力。根本法的形式要求宪法在文本上保持稳定性,在效力上保持至上性。从内容上看,作为根本法的宪法应维护其内容的重要性及其规定方式的原则性。宪法是公法和宪法是母法都是在特定的语境下对宪法与部门法关系的描述,不能作为规范分析的绝对前提。法律对宪法的具体化是立法者的一项积极义务,对此立法机关拥有广阔的裁量空间。宪法性法律也非对不成文宪法国家的误读,而是在中国宪法传统下对实质宪法的界定。
Constitution as the fundamental law is the basic proposition of constitutional theory.From the historical dimension,Constitution as the fundamental law is neither invariable nor universal.The concept of fundamental law in China was introduced from the west.After a century of localization,it has formed its own unique tradition.In the context of Chinese Constitution,Constitution,as the fundamental law,contains the ideal of the fundamental law,the form of the fundamental law and the content of the fundamental law.The idea of the fundamental law expresses a concept of legal power,which opposes unlimited,absolute and arbitrary power.The form of the fundamental law requires the Constitution to maintain stability and supremacy.From the content,the Constitution as fundamental law should maintain the importance of its content and the principle of its prescriptive method.The Constitution as public law and the Constitution as mother law are both the descriptions of the relationship between the Constitution and ordinary laws in the specific context.Constitutional law is not a misreading of the country with unwritten constitution,but the definition of substantive constitution under the Chinese constitutional tradition.
