| Decisionism: Decisionism is a political theory that holds that the sovereign is the one who decides on the state of exception. In other words, the sovereign has the power to make decisions that are not bound by the law. Carl Schmitt was a German jurist and political theorist who was a leading proponent of decisionism. He argued that decisionism is necessary for the sovereign to maintain its authority and to protect the state from external and internal threats._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
