This Series: The Rule of Law
The phrase, The Rule of Law, is in constant use today, but what does it mean?
How was it created and how did it evolve? This podcast is the story of the Rule of Law.
You will become a witness to each event that created a portion of the Rule of Law. You will stand beside the people who fought each battle that created the system in which "The Law is King" replacing dictatorships in which tyrants made all of the laws.
This Episode: "From Time Immemorial"
We will go back in time to 55 B.C. to test the assumption that English law is linked to the laws of the Roman Empire. Then, we will proceed at a rapid pace and cover 1,100 years of English history and examine how the law in England evolved up to 1066 A.D. immediately prior to the Norman Invasion.
