Advancing the Rule of Law Around the World
April 29, 2021 @ 3:30 pm – 5:00 pm
The rule of law is the bedrock of American rights and liberties, and the United States also serves, for many, as a beacon of sustained rule of law around the world. How has this changed in recent years? How do rule of law moments in the United States affect other countries? Can the United States still claim a leadership role when it comes to the rule of law? These questions and more will be discussed.
