El poder en tiempos de excepción
Featured in El Tiempo Latino, ISSE highlighted the growing normalization of emergency powers and the risks posed when extraordinary measures become routine tools of governance. The article underscored the institute's mission to monitor the use of exceptional powers, promote democratic accountability, and examine how prolonged states of emergency can erode the distinction between crisis response and ordinary government.
As ISSE founder Ed Bogan explained, “When leaders normalize emergency powers to bypass checks and balances and silence opposition, institutions do not collapse all at once; they erode slowly, under the guise of necessity.”
