Stavropoulos on the Rule of Law
Nicos Stavropoulos (University of Oxford - Faculty of Law) has posted The Rule of Law on SSRN. Here is the abstract: On the approach based on the standard conception of political authority, the rule of law is typically understood as a set of contingent attributes of legal rules (clear, prospective, possible to comply with, and so on). Its subject matter is authority ruling us by conveying authoritative instructions meant to guide our action, and it purports to improve the instructions’ suitability to the task.

I’ve posted a new article, The Nature of Substance and Procedure, to SSRN. It reconstructs the substance/procedure distinction in conflict of laws & reconstructs it from the ground up based on a foundational taxonomy of legal rights, & analyzes the upcoming Supreme Court case of Berk v. Choy.
