Summary
The risks and threats to security currently looming over society have led to the constitutional institute of state of exception becoming a permanent one, where a jumpy legislator committed to the precautionary principle seeks to hinder exceptional circumstances. Tristan Barczak's multi-faceted and critical portrayal of the situation reveals that only a reliable rule of law fortified with constitutional resilience can calm things down.
