A. V. Dicey is best known for highlighting the central role of judge-made law (common law) in the English legal tradition and formulating the modern concept of the Rule of Law. In his famous work “Introduction to the Study of the Law of the Constitution” (1885), Dicey emphasized that English law was largely created by judicial decisions rather than by legislative acts. He saw judicial precedents as the backbone of legal development and emphasized that courts protect individual liberties more effectively than statutes.
