| contents | <p>Governments frequently need to invoke emergency powers in crisis situations such as armed war, terrorism, pandemics, and natural disasters. Although such capabilities may be essential for safeguarding national security and public health, they also pose considerable risks for human rights infringements, democratic regression, and authoritarian consolidation, especially in emerging nations with precarious institutions. This article rigorously analyzes the normative and institutional structures regulating emergency powers within international human rights legislation and constitutional frameworks. Drawing on lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic, counterterrorism frameworks, and crises related to conflict, the report calls for a systematic policy framework that balances emergency governance with constitutional protections. It provides institutional, legislative, and judicial recommendations designed to enhance accountability, proportionality, and time-sensitive emergency authority in developing nations. The document aims to educate policymakers, academics, and legal professionals involved in governance change and the safeguarding of human rights during emergencies.</p> |
