Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper › peer-review

Abstract

Courts and civil society are indispensable elements for the development of
democratic constitutionalism. The functions that courts and civil society may provide for constitutional governance, and most importantly, the interactions between courts and civil society, have recently attracted attention from comparative constitutional studies. This research is aimed at understanding the ways that courts and civil society in both South Korea and Taiwan have functioned and how their performances may have impacted constitutional governance.
Specifically, this research is focused on how the constitutional court and civil society in South Korea and Taiwan have placed their checks with the government and whether the constitutional court and civil society have –or have not– collaborated with each other, and what have been the perceptions of each other’s functions and the relationships between them.
