Protecting the rule of law - Bingham Centre director interview
Murray Hunt, director of the Bingham Centre interviewed by Raconteur comments on current challenges to the rule of law and the work of the Bingham Centre.
..."The reassertion of national sovereignty over the claims of international courts is a worldwide phenomenon that goes hand in hand with populism and the return of authoritarian nationalism," warns Professor Hunt. "This resurgence of inward-looking, nation state-first outlooks poses a very large challenge to the rule of law, because so much of the rule of law architecture has depended since the Second World War on these institutions that were set up thereafter."..
