Professor Martin Krygier | Well-Tempered Power: The Rule of Law in Theory & Practice

What is the key to ‘well-tempered power’? Can the rule of law be sustained by the law alone, or does it need to be blended with distinct cultural, political, social and economic forces? The Western concept of the ‘rule of law’ has not been applied with equal success in countries globally, many of whom have all the dressings of a legal system including courts, judges and lawyers, but still experience arbitrary exercise of significant power. Watch one of the world’s leading theorists on the rule of law Professor Martin Krygier deliver our fifth Ramsay Lecture for 2024, Well-Tempered Power: The Rule of Law in Theory & Practice. Professor Krygier’s argument that the rule of law, well understood, is not merely “following the rules” but includes a culture of respect for all sorts of limitation on arbitrary power, is one of the most original and influential jurisprudential arguments of the past fifty years. In this presentation Professor Krygier explains and defends his conception of the rule of law and discusses the challenges it faces around the world today. NSW Solicitor-General Michael Sexton SC, an esteemed commentator and author of several books on Australian history and politics, then offers a response.
