What Is the Rule of Law? Perspectives from Central Europoe and the American Academy

Authors

Abstract

The title of my talk is "What is the Rule of Law?"—and its subtitle is "Perspectives from Central Europe and the American Academy." I represent the "American Academy" part, and as I will make clear in a little while, the other part comes from my sustained engagement, over the past ten years, with legal theorists and political philosophers in the Republic of Slovenia. Slovenia, by the way, is a nation that was created twelve years ago as the northernmost of those "breakaway" republics of the former Yugoslavia.
