AB - The modern democratic state is the core of the guarantee of rights. However, at the same time, a democratic state can restrict the rights of its citizens based on legitimate agreements. The restrictions of rights by the state inevitably differ from values such as the people's political ideology. This study examines the discourses around the country's quarantine and restrictions on rights produced by the mass media during the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on partisanship and state responsibility discourse. The mass media is a meaningful object for analyzing the discourse of state responsibility for rights restrictions. As a result of the study, different perspectives on the state's responsibility were revealed according to media faction. Progressive media produce discourses centered on social rights issues, such as protecting minorities and marginalized classes. On the other hand, Conservative media tend to produce discourses centered on individual liberty issues in the quarantine process. These results show that in the process of restricting the rights of members in the face of a disaster, the justification for limiting human rights can no longer be supported by an authoritarian approach alone.
