On the Institutional System of Implementing the Constitution of Special Administrative Regions and its composition

Abstract

The implementation of the Constitution of the Special Administrative Region is a significant theoretical issue related to the implementation of the Constitution under the “One Country, Two Systems” policy. Currently, theoretical discussions primarily focus on the judicial application of the Constitution in the Special Administrative Region, often neglecting other forms of constitutional implementation. The theoretical connotation of the implementation of the Constitution of the Special Administrative Region needs to be comprehended in conjunction with the forms of Constitution implementation, that is, from the three dimensions of Constitution implementation, Constitution application, and Constitution compliance. This approach will help to further explore the institutional framework and structure of constitutional implementation in the Special Administrative Region.. Therefore, it is crucial to frst clarify the theoretical meanings of these three dimensions before identifying specifc pathways to enhance the institutional framework for implementing the Constitution. Ultimately, the goal is to establish a comprehensive institutional system for the Constitution’s implementation inthe Special Administrative Region.
