A.V. Dicey's concept of Rule of Law

R.O.L built on Aristotle's concept - This can be said because, the one aspect of R.O.L i.e supremacy of law specie the same. This means law is paramount & not words of mouth from any individual. Written rule by a legislating body holds highest value in governance. For example, in India, income tax act is supreme and applicable & no person can be debarred from paying taxes just because of delinquency & administration for. But, on other hand, Aristotle's concept is just foundational to concept of R.O.L & adheres only one part of it. Other two parts i.e equality before law & source of law is sourced as not covered by Aristotle's classical ideas. Equality before law: this means, every citizen is subjected to same law irrespective of status. For example Article 14 of Indian constitution says same. Source of law is society- this means, that laws are what court of law says & governance & source of law is society alone & nota book like constitution. Overall, the basis of diceys R.O.L may be inspired from Aristotle but not the whole concept as R.O.L is much wider in scope than Aristotle's idea. On other hand, Dicey's R.O.L is also not universal now as per the current environment, rule of law does not only mean following the law in place, but also how their & just the law itself. Here Dicey's R.O.L only focus on the law preference & process of law, but not the core aspect is content of law.
