The rule of law is the most important political ideal today, yet
there is much confusion about what it means and how it works. This
2004 book explores the history, politics, and theory surrounding
the rule of law ideal, beginning with classical Greek and Roman
ideas, elaborating on medieval contributions to the rule of law,
and articulating the role played by the rule of law in liberal
theory and liberal political systems. The author outlines the
concerns of Western conservatives about the decline of the rule of
law and suggests reasons why the radical Left have promoted this
decline. Two basic theoretical streams of the rule of law are then
presented, with an examination of the strengths and weaknesses of
each. The book examines the rule of law on a global level, and
concludes by answering the question of whether the rule of law is a
universal human good.
