Lithuania’s 1992 Constitution has undergone a series of amendments, including certain structural changes. Besides formal amendments, constitutional regulation is subject to reinterpretation in the Constitutional Court’s case law. As a result, not only the content of specific provisions of the Constitution, but also the very perception of constitutional law has been reshaped by, inter alia, reducing the system of sources of constitutional law to only the Constitution and official constitutional doctrine. Recently the Constitutional Court, in an activist move, undertook modification of the settled new paradigm by introducing the notion of ‘supra-constitutionality’ and by postulating which constitutional provisions, until then deemed amendable, were non-amendable. The article deals with the doctrine in both the historical and the theoretical context and with its effect on the perception of constitutional law, in particular its structure.

立陶宛 1992 年宪法经历了一系列修订，包括某些结构性变化。除了正式修正案外，宪法规定还需在宪法法院判例法中进行重新解释。结果，不仅宪法具体条款的内容，而且对宪法的看法也被重塑，其中包括：，将宪法渊源体系缩减为仅有宪法和官方宪法学说。最近，宪法法院采取了一项积极行动，通过引入“超宪法”的概念，并假设哪些宪法条款在此之前被认为是可以修改的，而不是不可修改的，从而对既定的新范式进行了修改。本文从历史和理论两个方面探讨了该学说，及其对宪法认知（特别是宪法结构）的影响。
