Abstract

‘The rule of law’ has been described as an essentially contested concept which can be filled with different meanings, while still retaining a position as foundational for thinking about society, communal life, and the conditions for correct governance, including and importantly within legal thought. However, in this article the perspective taken on the topic of the rule of law is not strictly legal. Rather, the article’s aim is to reflect more broadly on what it means to live under the law and treat law as if it mattered, including from a religious perspective. By this, the article also provides insights into the disciplinary field of law and religion and current focuses and challenges in that area of research.
