Separation of Powers and Rule of Law: Theory and Implications for Pakistan
Learn how Montesquieu’s timeless theory of separation of powers underpins constitutional democracy and guards against tyranny. Considering Pakistan’s legal landscape, we will examine the evolving role of the judiciary, the importance of judicial ethics and the challenges in aligning judicial practice with the ideals of the rule of law. This session encourages reflection on restoring institutional balance and public trust without undermining the dignity or independence of the courts.
