摘要本文以中亚国家吉尔吉斯斯坦的宪法变革为背景，探讨法律与希望之间的相互关系。根据民族志和文本数据，它表明，宪法已获得特别话语的重要性，在吉尔吉斯斯坦每次国家的基础受到严重挑战或粉碎。本文特别关注三次主要的政治冲突，展示了在每次冲突之后，演讲，表演，演讲和对话是如何被注入“宪法信仰”的，将政治精英和普通公民联系在一起，表达他们对宪法变革的普遍希望，可以带来更美好的未来。我认为宪法信仰是一种希望的实践，它使人们能够积极地参与他们在世界上的存在，特别是在危机时期。在大规模政治冲突之后-我在此对此感到关切-它可以成为一种基于信仰的冲突解决方式。
ABSTRACT This article investigates the interrelation between law and hope in the context of constitutional change in the Central Asian country of Kyrgyzstan. Drawing upon ethnographic and textual data, it is shown that the constitution has acquired particular discursive importance in Kyrgyzstan each time the foundations of the state have been severely challenged or shattered. Paying particular attention to three major political conflicts, the article demonstrates how, in the aftermath of each, speeches, performances, presentations and conversations were infused with ‘constitutional faith’, binding together the political elite and ordinary citizens in an expression of their general hope that constitutional change could bring about a better future. I view constitutional faith as a practice of hope that allows people to actively engage with their being-in-the-world, particularly in times of crisis. In the aftermath of large-scale political conflict, with which I am concerned here, it can become a faith-based mode of conflict resolution.
