  • Program Guide 2018 Safeguarding the Rule Of
    Program Guide 2018 Safeguarding the Rule of Law As John Adams wrote in 1780, the rule of law at its most essential means a “government of laws and not of men.”1 The rule of law is “a principle of governance in which all persons, institutions and entities, public and private, including the State itself, are accountable to the laws that are publicly promulgated, equally enforced and independently adjudicated.”2 Among these principles of governance within the U.S. constitutional regime are separation of powers, democratic accountability, transparency, and norms that guide officials in their use of political power.3 Critics argue that the United States is currently being led by an executive who demonstrates autocratic tendencies, with a record of ignoring established legal processes, dismantling democratic conventions, and flouting norms that help preserve a stable, reliable government. In light of these circumstances, ACS encourages chapters to host events in 2018 examining the rule of law in the federal system. I. Separation of Powers In our constitutional structure, each branch of government plays a role in maintaining the stability and accountability of the government by checking the other branches’ exercise of power. Within this delicate balance, efforts by one branch to subvert the authority or legitimacy of either of the other branches threatens the rule of law. A. Independent Judiciary The judiciary’s power “extend[s] to all cases, in law and equity, arising under this Constitution, the laws of the United States, and treaties made, or which shall be made, under their authority.”4 Implicit in this grant is the power to review acts of Congress and the executive to determine their constitutionality.5 The independence of the judiciary—in which “judges exercis[e] judicial powers 1 MASS.
