## Resource

On 28 March 2026 CELS held a seminar event on 'The Rule of Law as a (dis)unifying Value in the European Legal Order?'. Among the rule of law's many virtues is its capacity to provide a framework for deliberating competing ideas of justice, fairness and equality. Yet a value once widely shared is now increasingly contested in both status and meaning. The Centre held this event to explore these and related questions. The seminar was structured around four core sub-themes. Each of these will begin with a 20-minute presentation followed by a facilitated discussion: I:The Nature of Values in Supranational Legal Orders - Nabil H. Khabirpour ( Video (YouTube) / Audio ) II: The Judiciary and the Rule of Law in Europe - Lord Justice Baker ( Video (YouTube) / Audio ) III: The Rule of Law, the Market, and European Identity - Professor Catherine Barnard ( Video (YouTube) / Audio ) IV: Enforcing the Rule of Law as a Value under EU Law - Professor Albertina Albors-Llorens ( Video (YouTube) / Audio ) For more information see: https://www.cels.law.cam.ac.uk/activities-archive
