The Law – Frédéric Bastiat

Frédéric Bastiat’s sharp 1850 essay on the purpose and limits of law remains startlingly relevant today. A concise and powerful argument that law exists to protect liberty and property — not to redistribute them.

The Rule of Law – Tom Bingham

Former UK Law Lord Tom Bingham makes the definitive case for the rule of law — what it means, why it matters, and what happens when governments abandon it. Essential reading for every legal professional.
