Brandeis University offered the judges in attendance at BIIJ 2010 a rare combined gift of time, space, and intellectual stimulus, allowing them to delve deeply into the issues surrounding the definition of the “rule of law” and the forms it assumes at the international level. Many kernels of wisdom on these and related questions emerged from our discussions in Salzburg. This report wonderfully captures these insights, while respecting the confidentiality of all speakers and the spirit of openness that characterized our conversations. Readers will, I believe, be able to both discern the enduring commitment to the rule of law felt by participants and appreciate the challenges they face as they strive to uphold and reinforce its mandates in the international arena.
