2018 年和 2019 年这两年时间里，我一直在写一部题为"制宪权导论"的专著。在写作过程中，我集中研读了不少西方政治与宪法思想史上的经典著作，并参阅了不少与之相关的研究论著。在此过程中，我特别注意各种不同的政治学说，是如何促进或阻碍了现代宪法的产生。通过这样的阅读、思考和写作，我自觉对现代宪法的目的、原则、内容和制度构造，有了比以前更为系统和深入的理解。 为了理解现代宪法是如何运作的，我用了很多时间去研究它是如何产生的。在本书中，我考察了组成现代宪法体制的若干政治观念，是如何被提出、被改造以及最终被整合在一起的。这本书的内容，一方面是向读者展示现代宪法在各种政治思想推动下的产生过 程，另一方面也是透过现代宪法的制度框架，去分析相关政治观念的内容和作用。 我在书中用两章的篇幅分析现代宪政体制在英国出现的经过（从大宪章到光荣革命），是想用历史事实去检验本书的理论部分，也就是要表明：只有当一个政治共同体的成员广泛认同若干不可或缺的原则，并将它们一起加以采用，才可能建立稳定的宪政体制。我另用一章的篇幅分析法国大革命从开始到失败的经过，是为了表明：如果人们对这些原则的理解出了偏差，或者只是选择性地采用其中的一部分，就不可能建立稳定的宪政体制。在这本书中，我完全没有谈及自晚清以来的中国宪法实践和学说，尽管我希望本书的写作与出版，能为中国大陆的宪法学研究奠定 正确的理论基础。Author: 张雪忠 著Publisher: BlurbPublished: 08/30/2022Pages: 480Binding Type: PaperbackWeight: 1.54lbsSize: 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.07dISBN: 9781034970224This title is not returnable
