description The article analyzes Carl Schmitt's interpretation of article 48 of the Weimar Constitution in view of the categories of dictatorship and state of exception. In this context, it is argued that Schmitt was not an enemy of the Weimar Republic. To develop this, it is reconstructed how Schmitt identifies in article 48 the ideal tool to face the crises that threaten the republic. In his vision, the article contains a dictatorship in the head of the president destined to defend the Constitution. However, the change of the Weimar crisis around 1929 leads him to modify the concrete implications of this. Thus, between 1921 and 1928, Schmitt defends that the president can adopt all the necessary measures to maintain public order –even violating certain constitutional clauses– and suspend the fundamental rights listed in the article. Then, between 1929 and 1933, Schmitt broadens the notion of public order to integrate the area of the economy. Appealing to the notion of constitutional praxis, Schmitt justifies the state of economic emergency and the power of the president to issue decrees with the force of law. In his opinion, both questions fall within the limits of article 48.
