Its objective is two-fold. First, to present the main findings of the research project, which has been concerned with the past and present state of the rule of law and democracy in Slovenia within a broader (Central) European context. Second, using the hence identified findings, to reflect on the possible future scenarios of the evolution of the rule of law and democracy in Europe. As the research project has determined, while Slovenia suffers from its own specific rule of law and democracy problems, these are simultaneously part of a general trend of a gradual retreat of democracy and the rule of law across Europe, but in particular in the post-communist countries. The conference will contextualize the Slovenian debate into a broader European context, shedding light on the more or less shared challenges from the European North, South and the East. This part will be introduced by a keynote lecture by Dr Martin Mits, judge on behalf of Latvia at the European Court of Human RightsTEXTknjigebooksSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of Slovenia
