Abstract Through the analytical framework of ‘transnational constitutional engagement’, this article examines the dynamically developing practices of the South Korean Constitutional Court as it engages with international and foreign elements, both within and beyond constitutional adjudication processes. Diverse underlying factors and orientations in varied contexts, and the complex interactions between them, are responsible for shaping the modes of a local constitutional actor’s engagement with the transnational. In the vertical aspect, the court adopts international human rights law as a substantive standard of constitutional review through a version of cosmopolitan constitutional interpretation, while it has nevertheless exhibited ambiguity and incoherency in concrete applications. The horizontal aspects of transnational engagement include the court’s practice of referencing foreign law and cases in constitutional adjudication. The vibrancy and the evolving patterns of its citation practice reflect the court’s growing self-perception vis-à-vis the world – although limitations remain, such as geographical asymmetries among referenced jurisdictions. The court has also been enthusiastic in interacting with various transnational counterparts beyond adjudication processes, demonstrating eminent leadership in regional network-building among constitutional courts in Asia. With both cosmopolitan aspirations and nationalist ambitions playing a role in their shaping, the modes of transnational constitutional engagement are not to be generalized, but require contextualization, and the relevant practices should be subject to constant evaluations for their contribution in producing sound and effective concretizations of the values of global constitutionalism.
通过“跨国宪法参与”的分析框架,本文考察了韩国宪法法院在宪法裁决程序内外与国际和外国因素接触时动态发展的实践。在不同的背景下,不同的潜在因素和取向,以及它们之间复杂的相互作用,负责塑造当地宪法行动者与跨国公司接触的模式。在纵向方面,法院通过一种世界主义的宪法解释,采用国际人权法作为宪法审查的实质性标准,但在具体适用方面却表现出含糊不清和不连贯。跨国参与的横向方面包括法院在宪法裁决中引用外国法律和案例的实践。其引用实践的活力和不断发展的模式反映了法院对-à-vis世界日益增长的自我认知-尽管仍然存在局限性,例如所引用的司法管辖区之间的地理不对称。法院在审判程序之外也积极与各国宪法法院进行互动,在亚洲宪法法院的区域网络建设中发挥了卓越的领导作用。由于世界主义的愿望和民族主义的野心都在其形成过程中发挥了作用,跨国宪法参与的模式不应该被概括,而是需要背景化,相关的实践应该受到不断的评估,以确定它们在产生健全和有效的全球宪政价值具体化方面的贡献。

Global constitutionalism: Asia-Pacific perspectives 全球宪政:亚太视角

Abstract This special issue of Global Constitutionalism discusses how global constitutionalism influences Asia-Pacific jurisdictions and how they respond. This introductory article presents the theme and structure of this issue, explains the Asia-Pacific’s unique contribution to global constitutionalism and offers a synthetic argument. It conceptualizes global constitutionalism as the global diffusion of common constitutional ideas, institutions and doctrines rooted in comparative constitutional law and public international law. On that base, it argues that constitutional design, adjudication and discourse in many Asia-Pacific jurisdictions are influenced by global constitutionalism. The influence results in not only convergence but also resistance to global constitutionalism in the regions. The regional experience presents critical challenges for global constitutionalism, and hence its effective operation significantly depends on its situation within the region’s axiological, institutional and social contexts.
这期《全球宪政》专刊探讨了全球宪政对亚太地区司法管辖区的影响及其回应。这篇导论文章介绍了这个问题的主题和结构,解释了亚太地区对全球宪政的独特贡献,并提供了一个综合的论点。它将全球宪政概念化为植根于比较宪法和国际公法的共同宪法思想、制度和学说的全球扩散。在此基础上,本文认为亚太地区许多司法管辖区的宪法设计、审判和话语都受到了全球宪政主义的影响。这种影响不仅导致了地区的趋同,也导致了地区对全球宪政的抵制。该地区的经验对全球宪政提出了严峻的挑战,因此其有效运作在很大程度上取决于其在该地区的价值、制度和社会背景下的情况。

Constitution transformation 宪法的转换
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2021-07-01 DOI: 10.1017/S2045381720000246

Abstract This article explores the extent to which (if at all) the concept of a constitution is undergoing change in the conditions of globalization that characterize the early decades of the twenty-first century, to an extent that might be described as transformation. The question is prompted both by familiar manifestations of the interdependence of domestic constitutional and international law and practice, and by the interpretation placed on them by some of the literature on global constitutionalism. Some – although by no means all – of the literature and the experience on which it draws relate to the extent of transnational influence on the way in which constitutions now are made or changed: constitution transformation in the narrow, or more particular, sense. The article seeks to answer this question with reference to global constitutional experience, including – critically – experience in Asia, as one of the largest and most diverse regions of the world, too often omitted from studies of this kind. To this end, the article considers whether the concept of a constitution can be regarded as having been globally shared in any event; examines the phenomena associated with globalization that might suggest a paradigm change; and considers the arguments that mitigate against change, at least on a global scale. In exploring these factors, it necessarily considers the extent to which states in different regions of the world diverge in their experiences of the internationalization of constitutional law. The article concludes that, on balance, it is not plausible to argue that the generic concept of a constitution has changed, with global effect. It does, however, acknowledge that current conditions of globalization present a series of challenges for national constitutions. Responding to them might itself be regarded as an exercise in global constitutionalism.
摘要本文探讨了在21世纪初的全球化条件下,宪法的概念在多大程度上(如果有的话)正在发生变化,这种变化可以被描述为变革。国内宪法和国际法与实践相互依存的常见表现,以及一些关于全球宪政的文献对它们的解释,都引发了这个问题。一些——尽管并非全部——文献及其所借鉴的经验与跨国对宪法制定或修改方式的影响程度有关:狭义或更具体意义上的宪法变革。这篇文章试图参考全球宪法经验来回答这个问题,包括——至关重要的是——亚洲作为世界上最大、最多样化的地区之一的经验,这类研究经常被忽略。为此,该条考虑了宪法的概念是否可以被视为在任何情况下都是全球共有的;审查与全球化有关的现象,这些现象可能表明范式发生了变化;并考虑了至少在全球范围内缓解变化的论点。在探讨这些因素时,它必然会考虑世界不同地区的国家在宪法国际化方面的经验差异程度。文章得出的结论是,总的来说,认为宪法的一般概念已经改变,具有全球影响是不合理的。然而,它承认,当前的全球化条件给各国宪法带来了一系列挑战。对它们的回应本身可能被视为全球宪政的一种实践。

Formalism and anti-formalism in the Chinese Communist Party’s governance project 中国共产党执政工程中的形式主义与反形式主义
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2021-07-01 DOI: 10.1017/S2045381720000271

Abstract This article argues that the governance project of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) oscillates between rule-based formalism and anti-formalist scepticism about rule-based governance. In this dichotomy, anti-formalist arguments support CCP leaders’ efforts to maintain and increase the Party’s influence over the judiciary and other state organs, which is a key justification for the Party’s power. Formalist language, in contrast, supports Party leaders’ attempts to constrain lower-level cadres’ uses of power within the Party. Formalist language is particularly prominent in the writings of Party ideologues on the interpretation of the Party’s internal regulations, including the CCP Constitution. At the same time, Party ideology also provides for various anti-formalist arguments about rule-based governance within and outside the Party. Paradoxical as it may be, the Party leadership seeks to exert rule-transcending political leadership through formal rules. While the focus of this article is on China, it argues that other illiberal regimes may also be studied in terms of similar, potentially incoherent approaches to rule-based governance.
摘要本文认为,中国共产党的治理工程在基于规则的形式主义和反形式主义对基于规则的治理的怀疑之间摇摆。在这种二分法中,反形式主义的论点支持中共领导人努力保持和增加党对司法和其他国家机关的影响力,这是党掌权的关键理由。相比之下,形式主义的语言支持党的领导人试图限制下级干部在党内使用权力。形式主义语言在党内理论家关于解释党的内部条例,包括《中国共产党章程》的著作中尤为突出。与此同时,党的意识形态也为党内外基于规则的治理提供了各种反形式主义的论点。尽管这可能是矛盾的,但党的领导层试图通过正式规则来施加超越政治领导的规则。虽然这篇文章的重点是中国,但它认为,也可以从类似的、可能不连贯的基于规则的治理方法来研究其他不自由的制度。

Global constitutionalism reconfigured through a regional lens 通过地区视角重新配置全球宪政

Abstract This article examines how global constitutional norms are received and reconfigured by South Asian judiciaries. It makes two central claims. First, it argues that India, as the largest state in the region, acts as a filter through which Bangladesh and Sri Lanka receive both structural and rights-based global norms. Second, it contends that Bangladeshi and Sri Lankan courts adopt distinct approaches to the Indian case law. While Bangladesh mostly converges with the Indian jurisprudence, Sri Lanka engages with it but does not wholly adopt its conclusions. The article puts forward a preliminary explanation for these distinct approaches based on differences in the constitutional structures and political histories of Bangladesh and Sri Lanka vis-à-vis India.
摘要本文探讨了南亚司法机构如何接受和重新配置全球宪法规范。它提出了两个主要主张。首先,它认为,作为该地区最大的国家,印度扮演着过滤器的角色,孟加拉国和斯里兰卡通过它接受结构性和基于权利的全球规范。其次,它认为孟加拉国和斯里兰卡法院对印度判例法采取了不同的做法。虽然孟加拉国在很大程度上与印度的法理学趋同,但斯里兰卡参与其中,但并未完全采纳其结论。本文根据孟加拉国和斯里兰卡与-à-vis印度在宪法结构和政治历史上的差异,对这些不同的方法提出了初步的解释。

The Constitution of the Philippines and transformative constitutionalism 菲律宾宪法与转型宪政
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2021-07-01 DOI: 10.1017/S2045381721000174

Abstract This article examines the 1987 Constitution of the Philippines’ provisions on social and economic rights and welfare. It considers how the 1987 Constitution fits within the post-liberal paradigm of ‘transformative’ constitutional texts that emerged during democratic transitions in the 1980s and 1990s. It then analyses how the Supreme Court of the Philippines responded to the constitutional call for egalitarian socio-economic reform in the first fifteen years after the People Power revolution. The article highlights how the 1987 Constitution envisions far-reaching, progressive socio-economic change, and incorporates both social and economic rights as well as open-ended policy goals in this regard. The article argues that this hybrid approach to distributive justice creates a distinctive set of interpretive challenges for the judiciary. It then argues that the Philippine Supreme Court’s approach to these provisions in the years following the transition to democracy was perfunctory and somewhat inchoate. The court affirmed its jurisdiction over these provisions, but did not develop meaningful standards or principles in relation to them. The article points out that transformative constitutional texts place difficult demands on the judiciary in relation to social and economic rights. They prompt the judiciary into unfamiliar domains. At the same time, institutional legitimacy – including legitimacy on questions of distributive justice – requires judges to sustain the sense of a cogent boundary between constitutional law and politics. The article argues that these challenges were heightened in the Philippines by the textual ambiguity of the 1987 Constitution as well as the relative dearth of jurisprudential resources at the time. It concludes by considering the implications of the Philippines experience for the design of transformative constitutions.
摘要本文考察1987年菲律宾宪法中关于社会经济权利和福利的规定。它考虑了1987年宪法如何适应20世纪80年代和90年代民主转型期间出现的“转型”宪法文本的后自由主义范式。然后分析了菲律宾最高法院在人民力量革命后的头15年里是如何回应宪法要求平等的社会经济改革的。文章强调了1987年宪法如何设想深远的、渐进的社会经济变革,并将社会和经济权利以及这方面的开放式政策目标纳入其中。本文认为,这种分配正义的混合方法给司法部门带来了一系列独特的解释挑战。然后,它辩称,菲律宾最高法院在向民主过渡后的几年里对这些条款的处理是敷衍了事的,而且有些不成熟。法院确认其对这些规定的管辖权,但没有就这些规定制定有意义的标准或原则。文章指出,变革性宪法文本对司法机关在社会和经济权利方面提出了困难的要求。它们促使司法部门进入不熟悉的领域。与此同时,制度的合法性——包括在分配正义问题上的合法性——要求法官保持宪法与政治之间有明确界限的意识。本文认为,菲律宾1987年宪法的文本含糊不清,以及当时法律资源的相对缺乏,加剧了这些挑战。最后,它考虑了菲律宾的经验对改革宪法的设计的影响。

The contestation and construction of global governance authorities: A study from the global business and human rights regime 全球治理权威的争论与建构:基于全球商业与人权机制的研究

The contestation of global governance institutions can strengthen or weaken, as well as transform, them. This article analyses the productive potential of contestation and justification of global governance institutions by examining the multiple authorities that are invoked as auxiliaries in the process. It studies the (re-)construction of these authorities by dissecting authority into three components: power, legitimacy and connection to public interests. Empirically, the article focuses on the issue area of business and human rights, examining the highly contested process of drafting a binding instrument in the United Nations Treaty Process. The analysis shows that the success of the Treaty Process not only hinges on its direct reaction to contestation, but also on its ability to (re-)construct the multiple related authorities. Ultimately, the article argues that the contestation of global governance institutions involves (re-)constructing multiple authorities. This demonstrates how contestation can also affect global governance institutions, actors and norms beyond the specific field of deliberation.
全球治理机构之争可以加强或削弱它们,也可以改变它们。本文通过考察在这一过程中被作为辅助手段调用的多个权威机构,分析了全球治理机构的争论和正当性的生产潜力。本文将权力划分为权力、合法性和与公共利益的联系三个部分,研究权力的重构。从经验上看,本文侧重于工商业与人权的问题领域,审查了在联合国条约进程中起草具有约束力的文书的高度争议的进程。分析表明,条约进程的成功不仅取决于其对争议的直接反应,还取决于其(重新)构建多重相关权力的能力。最后,本文认为全球治理制度之争涉及(重新)建构多重权威。这表明,争论也可以影响特定审议领域之外的全球治理机构、行为体和规范。

Empirically, the article focuses on the issue area of business and human rights, examining the highly contested process of drafting a binding instrument in the United Nations Treaty Process. The analysis shows that the success of the Treaty Process not only hinges on its direct reaction to contestation, but also on its ability to (re-)construct the multiple related authorities. Ultimately, the article argues that the contestation of global governance institutions involves (re-)constructing multiple authorities. This demonstrates how contestation can also affect global governance institutions, actors and norms beyond the specific field of deliberation.","PeriodicalId":37136,"journal":{"name":"Global Constitutionalism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1017/s2045381721000113","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47253918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Abstract A state should be deemed to be enjoying fiscal sovereignty where it is effectively empowered, without pressure or coercion, to make all policy decisions required to run the state machinery and satisfy the fundamental needs of its people (at the very least), both individual and collective. A state’s effective policy and decision-making power is effectively curtailed where: (1) it has been substituted in these functions by a third state or an organ of that state; (2) it is prevented from taking a particular action, such as unilateral default; (3) it is forced to violate fundamental domestic laws, including its constitution or the result of a referendum; or (4) external pressure is exerted against its government and institutions, with the aim of creating volatility and uncertainty concerning its finances so it succumbs to such pressure.
当一个国家被有效授权,在没有压力或胁迫的情况下,做出运行国家机器所需的所有政策决定,并满足其人民(至少)个人和集体的基本需求时,应被视为享有财政主权。在下列情况下,国家的有效政策和决策权受到有效限制:(一)由第三国或者第三国的机关代替国家的有效政策和决策权;(二)被阻止采取特定行动,如单方面违约;(三)被迫违反基本国内法,包括宪法或公民投票的结果;或者(4)对其政府和机构施加外部压力,目的是制造其财政的波动性和不确定性,从而使其屈服于这种压力。
