For the past two decades, it seems in retreat on a global scale. Shaffer and Sandholtz's volume shows that the demise of the rule of law is not just widespread, it is fundamentally transnational. This book is a great read for connecting the dots of national authoritarian impulses.'

The rule of law is closely tied to both democracy and human rights. The erosion of the rule of law, within a rising number of countries and in international relations, places populations under increasingly authoritarian and rights-abusing governments and threatens to destabilize peaceful relations among states. The book brings conceptual clarity to this complex and multidimensional topic and assesses recent trends in the rule of law at both national and international levels. The opening chapter clearly sets out the key concepts and evaluates broad transnational trends in the rule of law. Succeeding chapters assess rule of law developments at the international level and within key countries around the world.
