5 THOMPSON, supra note 1, at 266. Prominent challenges to the rule of law have, of course, been offered by other Marxist scholars, critical legal theorists, feminist theorists, critical race theorists, queer theorists,
and others. In particular the notion of sameness is seen as reifying biases and positions of privilege.
Against this, as Thompsonargued, even if the rule of law serves an ideological function it must promote
values that are, in fact, valuable, and capable of being at least partially realized. See JEREMY WALDRON,
THE LAW 21-25 (1990). For an examination of criticisms of Thompson, see Daniel H. Cole, “An
Unqualified Human Good”: E.P. Thompson and the Rule of Law, 28 JOURNAL OF LAW AND SOCIETY 177

10 PLATO, THE REPUBLIC (Benjamin Jowett trans., Clarendon Press 1892) (360 BC). By The Laws, Plato
endorsed astronger position: “Where the law is subject to some other authority and has none of its own,
the collapse of the state, in my view, is not far off; but if law is the master of the government and the
government is its slave, then the situation is full of promise and men enjoy all the blessings that the gods
shower on a state.” PLATO, THE LAWS 715d (Trevor J. Saunders trans., Penguin 1970)(360 BC).

Law of the Land. We will sell to no man, we will not deny or defer to any man either Justice or Right.”
