作为基本权利的科学研究自由及其规范意涵——基于对基因编辑婴儿事件的思考

Freedom of Scientific Research as a Fundamental Right and Its Normative Meaning——Based on the Thinking of Genetic Editing Baby Events

科学研究自由是宪法赋予公民的基本权利,对个体、国家都有重大价值。我国科学研究自由自入宪以来,取得了巨大成就,但是对科学研究自由的规范意涵一直充满争议,基因编辑婴儿事件的爆发正好给了人们深入思考科学研究自由的规范意涵的机会。德国合宪性审查三阶段模式是世界各国普遍采用的确定基本权利规范意涵和干预行为违宪与否的方式,对我们探究科学研究自由的规范意涵具有重要意义。

The freedom of scientific research is the basic right granted to citizens by the constitution and has great value to individuals and the country. Since the establishment of China’s scientific research freedom, it has made great achievements, but the normative meaning of scientific research freedom has been controversial. The outbreak of genetic editing baby events just gave people the opportunity to think deeply about the normative meaning of scientific research freedom. The three-stage model of constitutional review in Germany is a universally adopted method for determining the implication of basic rights’ norms and the unconstitutionality of interventions and it has great significance in the exploration of the normative meaning of scientific research freedom.
