LIMITATION OF CONSTITUTIONAL FREEDOMS AND PERSONAL RIGHTS DURING EXTRAORDINARY MEASURESThe fundamental issue raised in this elaboration comes down to an attempt at identifying the character and content of constitutional guarantees of freedom and individual rights during extraordinary measures martial law, state of emergency and natural disaster. Three essentials in immanent connection are raised in this respect: constitutional conception of freedom and personal rights, principles and values legalizing the limitations in constitutional guarantees of freedom and individual rights and particular constitutional guarantees excluding the ability of constricting some specific liberties and rights during extraordinary measures. The intention of this analysis is to establish whether the existing solutions at the level of RP Constitution arrangements indeed ensure the system not being edited in terms of the particular category of freedom and individual rights in Polish legal order.

EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES MARTIAL LAW, STATE OF EMERGENCY, STATE OF NATURAL DISASTERThe Constitution regulates the organisation and functioning of the most important organs of the state, the rules governing the relations between the state and citizens, as well as basic rights, freedoms and duties of citizens. The Constitution allows for restriction of these laws only by legislation, and only when it is necessary in a democratic state for its security or for the protection of public order, environmental protection, health and public morality, for the rights and freedoms of others. It is unacceptable to violate the essence of freedoms and rights. The restrictions are subject to police laws’ regulations. When the police measures are insufficient, applicable are legislations on extraordinary measures: martial law, state of emergency, state of natural disaster. The Constitution defines the following rules for the implementation of these states: uniqueness, legality, proportionality, purpose, protection of the legal system basics, protection of the representative bodies. They are the directives of interpretation of other regulations of the discussed Chapter of the Constitution and the regulations of statutes on emergency situations. A kind of competition for legislation on states of emergency may be provisions of the Act on Crisis Management.

The study investigates the main approaches to understanding such legal categories as “legal regimes” and “special legal regime”, and provides their classification. Special legal regimes serve as the legal basis for restricting human and civil rights and freedoms; therefore, the relevance of the study of the concept, types, and main features of special legal regimes is beyond doubt. The authors of the study consider the relationship between the categories of special legal regime of a state of emergency and martial law, and describe the main grounds for their imposition. The authors noted a need for a clear, consistent legal regulation of the model of behaviour aimed at overcoming and eliminating negative consequences of an emergency and military nature. Attention is focused on the fact that in Ukraine, the regulation of public relations arising in connection with emergencies and military situations has become particularly important after the emergence of a military conflict on the territory of Ukraine and the spread of the COVID-19 virus. The study provides the author’s vision of the categories “legal regimes” and “special legal regimes”. it is proposed to interpret the legal regimes as the regulatory procedure, which is expressed in a set of legal means that describe a special combination of interacting permits, prohibitions, and obligations, while implementing a special focus of regulation. The latter should be interpreted as a form of public administration that makes provision for the restriction of the legal personality of individuals and legal entities, introduced as a temporary measure provided by means of administrative and legal nature, and aimed at ensuring the security of the individual, society, and the state. The study provides the classification of special legal regimes and contains proposals to distinguish them according to the content and basis of occurrence as follows: state of emergency, martial law, state of siege, state of war, state of public danger, state of tension, state of defence, state of threat, state of readiness, state of vigilance

Historians have argued that sixteenth and seventeenth century English colonial charters claimed the lands of indigenous people on the basis of their discovery by Europeans. Examination of these charters, however, demonstrates that a charter authorized acquiring land from the indigenous population in a specific region, not seizing indigenous it, and regulating the entry of other potential settlers. Charters also regulated overseas relations among the European nations to reduce or prevent international conflict by recognizing similar claims to monopoly of access to lands claimed by other developing empires. Charters were rooted in a medieval legal tradition that included canon law commentaries that recognized the legitimacy of infidel dominium and papal bulls that sought to regulate fifteenth-century Iberian expansion in the Atlantic. English charters built on this legal tradition and were a stage in the creation of a European legal order for overseas expansion. The fundamental issue was regulation of the sea and sea routes to Asia and to the New World, not the acquisition and possession of indigenous land. The English charters should be understood as elements of the long-running debate about whether access to the sea was open to all or could be closed to outsiders.

The article is devoted to the concepts of the idea of law and law enforcement. The author justifies the idea that the application of law should be based on the idea of law. Modern trends in law enforcement convince that since the post-war period, law enforcement agencies (and, above all, the courts) increasingly make decisions and sentences not only on the basis of the norms of positive law, but also guided by the norms of morality, ethics, principles of respect for individual rights and freedoms. The idea of law is a concept in which the imperative is expressed in a concentrated form, implying the observance of personal rights and freedoms, morals and ethics, etc., by state bodies. The influence of the idea of law on law enforcement can give the latter properties that correspond to the modern ideas of justice and morality of law. On the basis of the analysis of acts of constitutional justice and judicial precedents, the author proves that judicial decisions and other law-enforcement acts, adopted under the influence of the idea of law, acquire new qualities that allow them to dynamically exert a positive legal impact. As a result, the acts of law enforcement can be considered as a law per se.

In practice of institutions and bodies of the penal system arise situations in which their normal activities are temporarily interrupted and they become the so-called special order of functioning. These are: natural disasters, riots of convicts, accidents, announcement of the state of emergency or imposing martial law, group disobedience of convicts, capture and release of hostages in the territory of a correctional institution, search and detention of convicts who escaped from a correctional institution, fires. In the event of these abnormal situations the operational environment is sharply complicated, and there are grounds for introducing special conditions in correctional institutions as well as pre-trial detention centers. The special conditions regime is a complex of organizational measures introduced when a state of emergency, martial law and special situations are established in the area of the correctional institution, as well as in the event of mass unrest or group disobedience of convicts. The study of the problematic issues of introducing this regime is an urgent area of research in modern penitentiary science. The article presents an attempt to comprehensively review the practical issues of introducing special conditions in penal institutions. The author considers it possible to supplement the list of grounds enshrined in the law for introducing a special conditions regime with a few more and makes suggestions for improving the current penal legislation.


Subject Prospects for Central-Eastern Europe to end-2020. Significance Across Central-Eastern Europe (CEE), there is variation in how measures against the COVID-19 pandemic are being implemented, how robust health systems are and how elites choose to consider individual rights during a state of emergency. All countries applied stringent lockdown measures, but in some the restrictions are more numerous and longer-lasting.
