选举资格是选举的前提和关键,对代议政治能否良性发展、议员是否具有代表性等具有至关重大的影响。清末民初有关选举资格的法律规定,总体上存在着选举标准减少,要求降低的进步趋势,但进两步退一步,曲折复折,与代议政治的本质尚相距甚远。 Electoral eligibility is the prerequisite and key of the election. It plays a crucial role in the healthy development of representative politics and the representativeness of parliamentarians. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the legal provisions on the eligibility of electors generally had the tendency to reduce the election standards and reduce the demands. However, taking one step back and twisting off twists and turns, the nature of the representative politics was far behind.
