Normsetzung im Notstand
Außerordentliche Gesetzgebungsbefugnisse im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert
Within the framework of the December Constitution of 1867, section 14 of the Basic Law on the Parliament (Imperial Council) allowed the Imperial Government under certain circumstances to take emergency measures without the prior consent of the Parliament. Initially only used in justified exceptional cases, it experienced a real peak at the end of the 19th century due to parliamentary crises. This procedure was only possible because the Parliament remained largely passive, and so the Government had to expect no decisive resistance for a long time. It was only very late that the Parliament adopted a critical stance, which led to a slightly different practice.
