Köp båda 2 för 763 krFor too long, the rule of law has been assumed as opposed to rigorously interrogated. Christopher Mays excellent study not only draws attention to this oversight, but also lucidly demonstrates how and why the rule of law has achieved the status of common sense of global politics. For anyone interested in the legalization of global politics as well as its social, political and ideological consequences, this superb book is essential reading. -- Susanne Soederberg, Queens University, Canada Christopher Mays The Rule of Law is clearly a must for all those interested in legal problems, international political economy, economic development, post-conflict restructuring or, more generally, the role of norms in todays globalised world. A timely and insightful disruption of the monotony of the rule of law discourse, this book definitely calls into question our supposedly commonsensical assumptions and self-evident practices. It is, therefore, clearly a significant achievement and undoubtedly recommended. -- Ignas Kalpokas, LSE Book Review
