Transitions between political regimes, whether through revolution, coup, or democratic elections, can profoundly affect citizen rights. During such transitions, existing laws may be suspended, or new constitutions might be enacted, altering the framework of rights and freedoms. In some cases, regime change may enhance individual rights, promoting democracy and political participation. However, transitions can also result in repression and the curtailment of civil liberties, particularly if new leaders seek to consolidate power. Therefore, the nature of the transition can significantly shape the trajectory of rights and freedoms for citizens.
