注記
"From April 2006 to April 2007 the 'Jamestown Lectures' organised jointly by COMBAR and the four Inns of Court of England and Wales, shadowed the journey taken from London to Jamestown 400 years ago. Then in April 2007, the University of Richmond and the American Inns of Court welcomed representatives of the United Kingdom's senior judiciary, of the Inns of Court of England & Wales and of COMBAR for a celebration of the arrival of the adventurers, and with it the founding of Jamestown, and in turn of modern America."--Foreword

内容説明・目次
内容説明
In April 2007 COMBAR held its annual meeting in conjunction with the University of Richmond, Virginia. The timing of the meeting was designed to form part of the celebrations of the 400th anniversary of the signing of the Virginia Charter and the founding of Jamestown. The conference which was conducted at the meeting took as its topic The Rule of Law, and brought together lawyers from around the common law world (and some from outside) to debate the meaning and importance of this fundamentally important topic. Judges from the UK Court of Appeal and House of Lords were present to take part, along with members of the US Supreme Court and Courts of Appeal, and representatives from around the globe as well as from many different spheres of activity. This book, which commemorate both the conference and the Viriginia Charter, brings the learning and wisdom of the speakers to a wider audience.
