    *LAWYERS AND THE RULE OF LAW*

    Lawyers frequently talk about the importance of the ‘Rule of Law’.
    But what do they mean by this?  And is their understanding correct?
    Our speaker thinks lawyers make a serious conceptual mistake that
    leads them to over-emphasize legal institutions at the expense of
    broader cultural and societal factors about which lawyers have no
    special claim to expertise.

    *SPEAKER: Martin Krygier*, Gordon Samuels Professor of Law and
    Social Theory, University of NSW


    The Forum meets at the Blackheath Neighbourhood Centre, cnr Gardiner
    Crescent & the Great Western Highway, 4pm-6pm.Admission $10 includes
    a big afternoon tea before question time. Hall is heated.All welcome!
