法治: 英國首席大法官如是說

內容簡介

內容簡介 2011年The Orwell Prize奧威爾獎得主。寫給普通人而不僅僅是法律人閱讀的一本關於「法治」的書。本書闡述的是「法治」概念，作者指出「法治」並非是一套僵硬的法律概念，而是一個平等與正義社會的基礎，保證政府負起其責任，即可以推動增長，又可以保障安全與合作；作者並分析了法治的歷史淵源，提出八個法治的本質；還討論了國際恐怖主義的威脅和對法治的影響。在這個混亂、似是而非、動盪不安的時代，這些鉅變都在在印證，這個社會需要法治，我們也需要閱讀這本書。Lord Bingham曾任職英國所有最重要的法律職位，是極為資深的法官，Law Lord，也就是現在的超級法院法官。無論是在任職House of Lords期間所作出的相當多影響深遠的判決：包括在一個不斷變化的英國憲政體系下重新定義個人的權利；將長期存在的普通法系的原理與新近的在歐盟法律 和國際法下的國家義務有機融合，還有他在法庭外的眾多講座以及著作都深刻得影響著對於司法獨立，人權，法制以及法治的認知。
