Answer 1

Answer:

The Emergency Concept

Relying upon constitutional authority or congressional delegations made at various times over the

past 230 years, the President of the United States may exercise certain powers in the event that

the continued existence of the nation is threatened by crisis, exigency, or emergency

circumstances. What is a national emergency?

In the simplest understanding of the term, the dictionary defines emergency as “an unforeseen

combination of circumstances or the resulting state that calls for immediate action.”

10 In the midst

of the crisis of the Great Depression, a 1934 Supreme Court majority opinion characterized an

emergency in terms of urgency and relative infrequency of occurrence as well as equivalence to a

public calamity resulting from fire, flood, or like disaster not reasonably subject to anticipation.11

An eminent constitutional scholar, the late Edward S. Corwin, explained emergency conditions as

being those that “have not attained enough of stability or recurrency to admit of their being dealt

with according to rule.”

12 During congressional committee hearings on emergency powers in

1973, a political scientist described an emergency in the following terms: “It denotes the

existence of conditions of varying nature, intensity and duration, which are perceived to threaten

life or well-being beyond tolerable limits.”

13 Corwin also indicated it “connotes the existence of

conditions suddenly intensifying the degree of existing danger to life or well-being beyond that

which is accepted as normal.”

There are at least four aspects of an emergency condition. The first is its temporal character: An

emergency is sudden, unforeseen, and of unknown duration. The second is its potential gravity:

An emergency is dangerous and threatening to life and well-being. The third, in terms of

governmental role and authority, is the matter of perception: Who discerns this phenomenon? The

Constitution may be guiding on this question, but it is not always conclusive.
