Seminar paper from the year 2025 in the subject Law - Public Law / Constitutional Law / Basic Rights, , language: English, abstract: This speech was given at the Department of Politics of National Taiwan University on 29 May 2025. It aims to discuss the genuine spirit of democracy from the perspective of legal philosophy, and its relationship with the rule of law and constitutionalism. Most academics prefer to discuss democracy as a substantive concept. Dr Huang as a constitutional jurist, however, regards democracy only as a procedure, viz a mechanism. He argues that we only know how to use a mechanism well if we learn how it works. Democracy in his eyes is merely a procedure which lets citizens make political decisions; however, this procedure establishes the most righteous sovereignty in a nation, which not only justifies the constitution but also makes sense the rule of law.
Autorenporträt
David KC Huang has been a visiting fellow in constitutional law at the O.P. Jindal Global Law School in Delhi, India since 2018. He is a Taiwanese scholar specializing in constitutional law, administrative law, judicial politics and behaviorism, philosophy, sinology and mathematics. He received fundamental legal education in both civil law (Taiwan) and common law (England and Wales) jurisdictions, by which he can compare civil law jurisprudence with that of common law in detail. He also majored in philosophy and can read any classical Chinese literature within the past four millennia without a dictionary. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in constitutional law at SOAS Law School, University of London, with a thesis about Taiwan's judicial supremacy through strategic decision-making in the 1990s.
