Answer:

Rule Of Law

Step-by-step explanation:

By the rule of law is meant a state in which public powers are governed by rules, by laws. Society must be governed under the laws, and powers (executive, legislative and judiciary) must also be governed by a constitution. The rule of law would be characterized by the transformation of natural rights into state laws, that is, by the constitutionalization of natural rights. According to this concept, the rule of law is the legal notion that the power of government is limited and restricted by legal means and is not at the mercy and whims of individuals.
