Constitutional freeze - a comparative analytical study

Abstract

This study addresses the issue of constitutional suspension as one of the unusual situations for managing the movement of the state in unusual times due to emergency or exceptional circumstances that make the work of constitutional texts incompatible with the material and political reality These situations confront contemporary legal systems, especially in countries experiencing political or constitutional crises related to the mechanisms of state institutions during times of crisis, by placing them outside the scope of constitutional texts, thus freezing constitutional texts and rendering them ineffective. We have divided this study into three demands.  Our first section defined constitutional suspension and its legal nature. In the second section, we reviewed the types of constitutional suspension. In the third section, we discussed the effects of this suspension. We concluded with recommendations and results of our findings, which help to avoid the risks of constitutional suspension on political and constitutional life, thus allowing for a reduction in the damage caused by it.
