本課程乃是政治研究所博士班與碩士班的必修課程。其內容主要在探討憲政主義(Constitutionalism)與民主政治(Democracy)之間的競合關係。蓋民主政治主張多數統治，以維護多數意志，而憲政主義則強調限制多數，以保障少數權利，兩者在本質上是相互衝突的。因此，如何在民主政治多數統治的基礎上來保障少數，即成為憲政民主（Constitutional Democracy）的主要爭議。本課程旨在說明這些爭議的所在，並介紹憲政民主的不同形態，以期學生具備相關的政治專業知識，決策分析與學術研究的能力。This course is a compulsory course for the doctoral and master's programs of the Institute of Political Science. Its content mainly explores the competitive relationship between constitutionalism and democracy. Democracy advocates majority rule to safeguard the will of the majority, while constitutionalism emphasizes limiting the majority to protect minority rights. The two are essentially in conflict with each other. Therefore, how to protect minorities on the basis of majority rule in democratic politics has become a major controversy in constitutional democracy. This course aims to explain these controversies and introduce different forms of constitutional democracy, with the aim of equipping students with relevant political expertise, decision-making analysis and academic research capabilities.
