The Rule of Law
The Classical definition:
Age of Enlightment: separation of powers (Charles-Louis de Secondat, Baron de la Brède et de Montesquieu
Extensive definition of the World Justice Program
The rule of law is a system in which the following four universal principles are upheld:The government and its officials and agents as well as individuals and private entities are accountable under the law.
The laws are clear, publicized, stable and just, are applied evenly, and protect fundamental rights, including the security of persons and property.The process by which the laws are enacted, administered and enforced is accessible, fair and efficient.
Justice is delivered timely by competent, ethical, and independent representatives and neutrals who are of sufficient number, have adequate resources, and reflect the makeup of the communities they serve.These four universal principles which comprise the WJP's notion of the rule of law are further developed in the nine factors of the WJP Rule of Law Index.
