我国现行宪法中“政治权利”的概念解读——基于文义解释的维度

Literal Interpretation on “Political Rights” in the Constitution of China

从普通含义和专业含义两个维度解读我国宪法文本中的政治权利概念,政治权利的内涵可被理解为"参与国家政治生活的权利",而其外延则是不确定的,但至少包含选举权与被选举权,担任公职权和言论、出版、集会、结社、游行、示威自由等三项权利。并且从《宪法》第34条但书规范的解释角度,我们也无法得出我国宪法文本中的政治权利仅限于选举权与被选举权的结论。

From two dimensions of general meaning and professional meaning,the connotation of＂political rights＂in the Constitution of China can be interpreted as＂rights to participate in state or political affairs＂,and its extension is uncertain.However,＂political rights＂are at least composed of the following three rights：right to vote,right to public office,and freedom of speech,of the press,of assembly,of association,of procession and of demonstration.Furthermore,conclusion can＇t be drawn that ＂political rights＂prescribed in Constitution is only limited as right to vote by interpreting the provisos of Article 35.
