香港基本法解释权的冲突与协调

中国内地与香港分别实行不同的法律解释体制,两地的法制差异在香港基本法的解释权问题上发生了尖锐的冲突。基本法的起草者们照顾到了两地法律解释体制的区别,精心设计了独树一帜的“双重”解释体制。然而在实践中,围绕基本法的解释仍然发生了激烈的争议,远远没有达到基本法所希望的两全其美的效果。笔者建议,应该考虑采取在中央和特区之间建立协调机制、创立良好的宪法惯例、人大不主动释法等措施改进基本法的解释权行使。

The Conflict and Harmony on the Interpretation of Hong Kong Basic Law

The mainland China and Hong Kong have different regimes to interpret law and it results in sharp conflict on the interpretation of Basic Law. Although the lawmakers of Basic Law have been aware of such difference and designed an elaborate and unique interpretation regime, the intense controversy still happened after transfer of the sovereignty. The author suggests that following steps should be taken to improve the interpretation of Basic Law: establishing a harmonious channel, cultivating rational constitutional customs, not interpreting Basic Law actively, and so on.
