Democracy and Lawlessness

Focusing on the enactment of controversial laws in Norway in 1927, the narrative explores efforts to politically influence the judicial system. It highlights parallels to contemporary threats against judicial autonomy, particularly in nations where populist movements aim to control the courts. Additionally, the book examines how rising conflicts, such as those surrounding the climate crisis and the pandemic, pose significant challenges to the rule of law, underscoring the ongoing relevance of these historical events.
