区域行政应当受到法律的规范与制约,这是行政法治原则的基本要求。由于区域法制的构建严重滞后于区域行政实践,传统行政法原理与制度难以应对区域治理的现实需求。行政与法律之间的固有矛盾推动行政法的发展与变迁。这种发展变迁主要体现在以下方面:其一是推动行政法积极应对区域公共治理任务,能动地解释和规范区域行政现象,从而提升行政法的社会回应性;其二是促使行政法将调整重心从外部行政转向区域政府间内部行政,并带来行政法律关系结构、行政行为方式和行政治理模式的变革;其三是超越传统行政行为中心主义,引入行政政策学、行政过程论和行政规制论的理论分析工具,为“面向区域行政的行政法”的形成与发展提供可能性。
The Rise of Regional Administration and Development of Administrative Law
Li Yuxing (Southeast University)
Abstract Complying with the principle of administrative rule by law, the regional administration should be governed by the law. However, due to the lag of legal system, the principles and measures of traditional administrative laws are unable to cope with the problems generated by the practice of regional administration. The self-development of administrative laws is accordingly required and driven by the inherent contradictions between governance and law. The development and changes of administrative laws are evidenced as follows. First, administrative laws actively perform the governance of regional public affairs, interpret and regulate regional administrative actions which improve their performance of social responsiveness. Second, administrative laws produce a shift that regulating regional administration from inter-governance to intra-governance, which results in innovations in terms of relational structures of laws, administrative acts and governance modes. Third, instead of centering on administrative acts, analytical methods such as administrative policy science, process and regulation theories are adopted, which provide the possibilities that form and develop administrative laws oriented for regional administration.
