Gerald Postema

Gerald Postema, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy at the University of North Carolina, discusses the crucial yet threatened concept of the rule of law. He emphasizes its role as a defense against arbitrary power and explores foundational principles like sovereignty and equality. The conversation shifts to the moral implications of declining standards and their threat to legal integrity. Postema also addresses challenges posed by AI to legal frameworks and the erosion of international law in contexts like the Ukraine invasion, urging collective responsibility in upholding justice.
