摘要

「公民投票法」於民國九十二年經立法院三讀通過，並經陳水扁總統公佈實施，至今屆滿十年。「公民投票法」條文之間顯然有諸多值得商榷之處，應該加以檢視；而迄今已實施的三次全國性公投，共有六項公投案，其實施動機、過程許多爭議亦深值吾人探究。本文乃擬先就我國「公民投票法」之立法動機－國內政治態度與「公民投票法」產生之淵源做一探討；其次就這部「公民投票法」條文之爭議處，逐一加以剖析，以利爾後本法修正之參考；再其次就「公民投票法」迄今已有之三次全國性公投、六項公投案，加以論述，並就其中表現之意涵予以呈現之。本文最後仍就學理角度分析「公民投票」與「創制複決」之歧異處，用以凸顯我國「公民投票法」是政治力遠大於學理者。

It has been a decade since the passage of the ＂Referendum Act＂ by the Legislative Yuan, and its promulgation by former President Chen Shui-bianin 2003. Apparently, some provisions are contentious and need to be examined. So far, three national referendums were held on six proposals after the Referendum Act came into force. However, the motives and the process of the referendums are quite controversial, which deserves further exploration. This study is aimed to (1) analyze the motives of legislation, including the domestic political attitudes and the background of the ＂Referendum Act＂; (2) to examine the contentious provisions and to facilitate the subsequent amendments; and (3) to discuss and illustrate the implications of the three national referendums. Finally, this study will explore the difference between the ＂plebiscite＂ and the ＂referendum＂ to highlight the supremacy of political power over theories.
