Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze various approaches to the constitutional and legal regulation of governance under conditions of martial law in different countries taking into account the educational aspect. The study integrates an educational perspective, emphasizing the need for both citizens and leaders to understand the constitutional and legal frameworks that support democratic principles during crises. Research methodology includes historical method, method of legal hermeneutics, method of systemic approach, synthesis, method of modeling, comparative method and statistical method. The conclusions emphasize the importance of understanding and using constitutional and legal provisions to ensure openness, transparency, and participation in public processes, even under martial law.
