摘　　要：在一个民主国家,良好的宪法寻求法律德性与政府德性的平衡。良好的宪法可从它与人权关系的抽象层面来考虑,亦可从议会至上到宪法至上的发展来考虑。但本文意在表明两种德性之间的平衡是层次多样的。法律德性关注个人权利,政府德性关注公共利益。通过限制司法和行政的角色以实现二者平衡,是宪法始终不变的任务。The ＂good Constitution＂ in a democratic country seeks to balance the morality of law and the morality of government. The good Constitution can be considered at the levels of abstraction of the relationship to human rights or of the progression from parliamentary to constitutional supremacy. But this article suggests that the level of the balance between the two moralities is more fruitful. The morality of law focuses on individual rights, the morality of government on the public interest. The constant task of the Constitution is to achieve an accommodation by restraint on the part of both the judges and the executive.
