What is the Rule of Law Good For?

Andrew Koppelman


Everyone loves the rule of law, but they don’t agree on what it is or why it matters. That’s why Paul Gowder’s book, The Rule of Law in the Real World, is so important. It begins with the humblest task of analytic philosophy, the disambiguation of the common sense meaning of terms. It shows that these terms point to a morally urgent ideal.

Thus opens my review of the book at the New Rambler, here.
