Online lecture: Rule of Law: The ambiguities of an unqualified human good

On behalf of Comenius University Regional Academy we would like to invite students, teachers and researchers to the online lecture "The ambiguities of an unqualified human good" which will be given by András Sajó.

András Sajó is Doctor of Law, University Professor at Central European University, senior research fellow at CEU Democracy Institute, former judge and Vice President at European Court of Human Rights and a member of Oversight Board in Meta. 

The aim of this talk is to discuss the potential and limits of the rule of law in constitutional self-defense. As a conceptual tool, 'rule of law' is ubiquitous, wielded by many including those not committed to the capacity of constitutionalism to impose restraints on unchecked power. In a narrow reading, the rule of law not only does not halt, but may even perpetuate ruler domination. But when recognizing this inherent limitation, it may serve as a powerful tool to respond to illiberal practices of cheating.
