Networks and the Rule of Law:
Uncovering Socio-Economic Outcomes
A research project funded
by the European Union
Why is the rule of law under attack in so many places around the world? While it has been maintained and defended in some contexts, others have witnessed significant backsliding
We investigate the central role that networks play in affecting the rule of law and in shaping how rights, resources, benefits, and obligations are distributed among members of society
We leverage diverse methods like survey and lab experiments, interviews, and network science to test the causes and consequences of rule of law decline

How can we measure something as complex and multifaceted as the rule of law? How can we quantify the architecture of social and political networks?
And how can we ensure consistency in how we empirically operationalize these theoretical concepts, such that our analyses yield comparable results?
