Postema on Complexities and Vulnerabilities of the Rule of Law

Gerald J. Postema (University of North Carolina – Philosophy) has posted Complexities and Vulnerabilities of the Rule of Law: A Response to Comments on Law’s Rule on SSRN.  Here is the abstract:

This article explores some complexities of the rule-of-law ideal defended in Law’s Rule: The Nature, Value, and Viability of the Rule of Law. It addresses challenges to the rule of law represented by tensions within the prospectivity principle, by worrisome complexity and redundancy of laws (“hyperlexis”) and the inevitable distance between complex law and the understandings of ordinary citizens, and by the recent ascendency of the use of artificial intelligence in adjudication and governance.
