Article about the rule of man: It The Rule of Law and the Rule of Men: History, Legacy, Obscurity. The distinction between “the rule of law” and “the rule of men” is still in use, after more than two and a half thousand years. It is well known that Aristotle’s aphorism extols government according to institutionalized impersonal rules and condemns government by personal fiat. Click here for The rule of man However, the formulation has another dimension that, during the course of the modern era, has gradually been obscured: Aristotle, following Plato, is making a set of philosophical points about the relations between human nature, the wider natural order, and positive law. The first part of this article offers an account of this neglected dimension of the ancient contrast between “the rule of law” and “the rule of men”. The second part of the article considers the reception of the contrast in the early modern age, focussing on the limited government tradition which emerged in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The article concludes by considering how the rise of so-called “formal” accounts of the rule of law tend not merely to deny the validity of the Classical approach, but to render it increasingly obscure.

I have relied heavily on the following accounts of the relevant intellectual climate: Canevaro (2017), Guthrie (1971), Guthrie (1986), Jaeger (1945), Jaeger (1947), Lewis (2009a, b), MacIntyre (1981), MacIntyre (1998), MacIntyre (2001), Ostwald (1969, 1989), Sandel (2014). Krygier refers to Aristotle (2000) at 1287a. Krygier (2016), p. 206. Citations omitted. Canevaro (2017), p. 224. Canevaro (2017), p. 231. The leading proponents of the classical approach to law are Plato, Aristotle and Aquinas, and this tradition has been continued by an array of modern disciples, including, most prominently today, John Finnis. See Finnis (2014), Finnis (2011) and Finnis (2003). For a relevant and very helpful interpretation, see Lewis (2009b), section I. Plato, Republic 331b–d. Plato (1926) 875c–d. Endicott (2010),, Simmonds (2007) and Simmonds (2010). See generally Ostwald (1989), ch 1. Jaeger (1947). On Plato, see Stalley (2015), p. 66. Plato (1926) 875c–d. Whether to characterise law and the rule of law as an “ideal” is a subject of contemporary discussion: e.g., according to Finnis, ‘moral ideal is not a good name for the moral requirement that such an order of rules be desired, sought, introduced, accepted, refined and adjudicatively and forcefully applied—all for the sake of justice, responsible government and the pursuit of the common good…’: Finnis (2010), p. 250. See also the contributions of Nigel Simmonds (2010) and Timothy Endicott (2010) in the same volume of Jurisprudence. See also Finnis (2003), p. 112. Plato (1921) 151e. Plato (1921) 167c.
