On Rescuing Democracy and the Rule of Law (2026)

When the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, volunteer American lawyers traveled to former Soviet Bloc nations to support their shift toward democracy and help reform their legal systems. Now, as respect for the rule of law has declined dangerously around the world over the past decade, two-time Academy Award winner Terry Sanders examines the roots of this erosion and explores how democracy and the rule of law can be protected in the future.
