Law and the Exception: Towards a New Paradigm

Join us for a special Office Hours session with Gian Giacomo Fusco and Przemysław Tacik, authors of Law and the Exception: Towards a New Paradigm (Routledge, 2025). Fusco and Tacik propose a paradigm shift in how we understand states of exception, arguing that exceptionality now extends well beyond formal emergency declarations—as the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated, legal systems can disguise the exceptional as the normal. Don't miss this conversation about the hidden authoritarian drives within liberal constitutionalism and why rethinking the boundaries of emergency powers matters more than ever.

1:00 PM EST on Thursday, February 19
