Anthony
H. Barash, Scholar-in-Residence
Democracy and the Rule of Law in Developing Nations
Seminar
March 8 - May
3, 2005
Every Tuesday from 4-6 pm
The Richard
W. Riley Institute of Government, Politics, and Public Leadership
announced Mr. Tony Barash as the first Riley Scholar in Residence.
Mr. Barash has had a distinguished legal career, serving as Senior
Vice President, Corporate Affairs and General Counsel of Bowater
Inc. In May 2003, Mr. Barash became the American Bar Association/Central
European and Eurasian Law Initiative (ABA/CEELI) Officer in Uzbekistan.
For a year and a half he worked to develop the Uzbeki legal and
judicial systems in addition to those of other Central Asian States.
This seminar
explored the role of the Rule of Law in the democratization of developing
nations. Informed by the instructor’s personal experiences
as the leader of a judicial reform program during 2003-04 in the
former Soviet Central Asian Republic of Uzbekistan and as the leader
of a team that assessed the status of judicial reform in the former
Soviet Republic of Armenia in the Caucasus in 2004, the course examined
the concept of the Rule of Law, the role of the Rule of Law in transitional
countries, its comparative value as a democratization tool and as
a vehicle to implement the foreign policies of the United States
and other First World countries in the developing world.
There were
no prerequisites for the seminar other than an interest in the inevitable
practical, historical and theoretical conflicts that occur during
times of profound geopolitical volatility and change. This is a
non-credit course, there are no fees, and all materials will be
supplied.
