On Education in the Global Culture of Lawfulness
Journal Title: Białostockie Studia Prawnicze - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 23
Abstract
Th is essay seeks to clarify what is meant by a Culture of Lawfulness (CoL), fi rst in its original academic terms and antonym – lawlessness. Th e author ventures into its quintessence from a sociological perspective of criminal tribal traditions, next as the eff ect of confl ict and post-confl ict situations, and, then, as statutory lawlessness under the guise of the Rule of Law. Second, the essay considers CoL as a collateral of the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Agenda, introduced under its chapeau by the Th irteenth United Nations Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice (Doha, Qatar, 2015).Th ird, the author looks into the relation between the Rule of Law and economic development. Finally, he looks into the question of the advancement of a Global Culture of Lawfulness that supports the rule of law and human rights while respecting cultural identities, through intergenerational and intercultural transmission of crime prevention values in the age of migration. In this latter context, the author discusses the educational CoL challenges for immigrant children and youth.
