Abstract

The purpose of this article is to explain the reasons why the normative power of the State proliferates in the state of emergency, given that a number of norms have been issued that are supposed to have been effectively aimed at averting or avoiding the extinction of the effects of the supervening or extraordinary situation, such as covid-19. Bearing in mind that it has not been possible to deal only with regulatory powers in use of ordinary powers, but it has also been necessary to exercise regulatory powers in use of extraordinary powers, with the declaration of a state of exception.
