中華民國台灣歷經43年的動員戡亂時期(1948~1991)，38年的戒嚴統治(1949~1987)，七次的修憲(1991~2005)，三次的政權(黨)輪替(2000年，2008年，2016年)，已經從威權統治，轉化成憲政民主。然而在這民主轉型政治發展的過程中，卻衍生出許多的爭議，其中包括行政統治權的歸屬，國家元首(總統)與政府首長(行政院長)權責的劃分，國會立法權的一院制或兩院制，國會議員人數的規模，行政與立法兩權的互動，選舉制度與政黨體制的關係，司法院最高法院化的可能性，文官體制與行政中立的落實，地方派系與地方自治的糾纏，民主化與媒體自由，兩岸關係與政治發展，經濟自由化與政治發展，直接民主與民主化的困境，人權發展與公民社會，全球化與政治發展等議題。本課程旨在說明這些爭議的所在，並介紹憲政民主發展過程中可能出現的不同形態，以期學生具備相關的政治知識，分析判斷與公共服務的能力。
