摘要
20世纪初晚清宪政与40 年代国民党宪政这两次失败的宪政改革具有许多相似之处。(一)在背景条件上,首先都由经济发展引起的社会结构变化促成改革的启动;其次严重的民族危机成为改革的直接原因;再次都有国内多重利益集团向统治者提出挑战。(二)在过程特点上,两次宪政改革都具有一定的长期性和曲折性,都具有广泛的社会参与,而统治阶层都是既保守又无能。(三)两次宪政改革给我们如下启示,民主力量是巨大的,民主潮流不可抗拒;只有代表民意顺应潮流;现代化事业必须有人民的广泛和自愿参与才能实现。
There are a lot of similarities between the constitutional reform of late Qing Dynasty at the beginning of the 20th century and the Kuomintang constitutional reform in 1940s. In the respect of background, the change of social structure caused by economic development facilitates the arrival of the reform; the serious national crisis becomes the immediate cause of the reform; the domestic interest groups challenge the reformer. As far as the course is concerned, the two constitutional reforms have certain long period of time and twists; they both have extensive communal participation; the ruling class involved in the two constitutional reforms are both conservative and incompetent The two constitutional reforms indicate that democratic strength is enormous and the democratic trend is irresistible. What is more, the ruling class can’t stay in power forever unless representing the will of the people and going with the tide of historical development. Still more, the modernized undertaking must have the extensive and voluntary participation of the people.
