La dictature, forme de régime de l’Empire
Jean-Claude Paye
In that they generalise
overriding procedures, measures against terrorism actually put fundamental liberties on
hold. Emergency measures are given legal status. Such shift leads to a new kind of regime
in which the executive power takes on the attributes of legal power, dictatorship. This turns
out to be the most appropriate form of government in an imperial structure, with the US
executive setting up emergency measures and inscribing them into the Law.
