We are delighted to announce the publication of "Rule of Law: Cases, Strategies, and Interpretations"
Essays from 32 authors that address racism, misinformation, human rights, the status of women, the treatment of indigenous peoples, the environment, and more.
Sponsored by Columbia's Italian Academy for Advanced Studies, and commissioned and edited by Ambassador Barbara Faedda, the Academy's Executive Director and Head of Delegation and Permanent Observer of EPLO Permanent Delegation to the United Nations in NYC, this volume's primary goal is to showcase the variety of perspectives, cases, and methodologies of the people and institutions that bring a range of expertise to bear in many fields.
The rule of law is not merely a set of principles that guarantee a just society. It must be more than a tool in the hands of legal experts; it cannot be a concept out of the reach of ordinary people. It is essential that every citizen feel a clear responsibility to protect and promote the rule of law, to denounce inequalities and oppose imbalances of power, if the common goal is to enjoy freedom, democracy, and justice for all.
This book is intended to serve as a useful, up to date, interdisciplinary, and timely tool for educators, professionals, national and international agencies, journalists, lawyers, political scientists, anthropologists, policy makers, and all individuals interested in this topic.
