Tom Bingham, morto a 76 anni di cancro ai polmoni, è stato ampiamente riconosciuto come il più grande giudice inglese dalla seconda guerra mondiale. Al vertice della magistratura per un arco di tempo insolitamente lungo, è stato il primo individuo in epoca moderna ad agire sia come maestro degli albi, con mandato supremo per i tribunali civili per quattro anni dal 1992, sia poi come lord chief giustizia, gestendo i tribunali penali come il giudice di grado più alto della Gran Bretagna. Dal 2000 fino al suo pensionamento nel 2008 è stato l'anziano signore della legge. In quel ruolo, ha scritto una serie di importanti sentenze, definendo il posto dei diritti individuali nel panorama di una mutevole costituzione britannica, fondendo il rapporto tra i principi consolidati di common law con i più recenti obblighi delle leggi europee e internazionali. Le sue conferenze e scritti, e in particolare il suo ultimo libro, The Rule of Law, pubblicato all'inizio di quest'anno, sono trattati come testi seminali.

Descrizione di Il libro

The Rule of Law pdf da Tom Bingham

"The Rule of Law" is a phrase much used but little examined. The idea of the rule of law as the foundation of modern states and civilizations has recently become even more talismanic than that of democracy, but what does it actually consist of? In this brilliant short book, Britain's former senior law lord, and one of the world's most acute legal minds, examines what the idea actually means. He makes clear that the rule of law is not an arid legal doctrine but is the foundation of a fair and just society, is a guarantee of responsible government, is an important contribution to economic growth and offers the best means yet devised for securing peace and co-operation. He briefly examines the historical origins of the rule, and then advances eight conditions which capture its essence as understood in western democracies today. He also discusses the strains imposed on the rule of law by the threat and experience of international terrorism. The book will be influential in many different fields and should become a key text for anyone interested in politics, society, and the state of our world.
