rulerbydecree

Rulerbydecree is a term used to describe a form of government where the ruler's authority is derived from decrees or edicts issued by the monarch or dictator. This system is often associated with absolute monarchies and authoritarian regimes. In a rulerbydecree system, the ruler's decrees are considered the supreme law, and they have the power to enact, amend, or repeal laws without the need for consultation with a legislature or other governing bodies. This concentration of power in the hands of a single individual or a small group can lead to significant political and social consequences, including the potential for human rights abuses and lack of democratic accountability. The term "rulerbydecree" is often used in academic and legal contexts to discuss the legal and political implications of such systems.
