How the Rule of Law Connects and Protects Human Rights?

Abstract

The rule of law has become an important fundamental framework for government governance; it helps promote justice, fairness, and individual freedom, which are some rights that are included within the scope of human rights. Nowadays, the rule of law has been regarded as the most effective way to protect human rights, therefore, how the rule of law connects and protects human rights is a discussible issue. This essay will focus on the principles given by Professor Evan Fox-Decent, discuss the connection between the rule of law and human rights protection, and discuss how the rule of law can protect human rights.
