The rule of law is a system, procedure, institution, practice, or standard that upholds the equality of all people in front of the law, ensures a form of governance that is not arbitrary, and more generally, forbids the arbitrary exercise of power.
- Despotism, absolutism, authoritarianism, and totalitarianism all exhibit arbitrary behaviour.
- Despotic regimes can even be highly institutionalised, with the top of the power structure (a monarch, a junta, or a party committee, for example) having the right to act when it pleases beyond the bounds of the law.
- Being a member of a society where, one day, when you are lawfully and safely driving your new automobile down the street, you are stopped and taken into custody only because the arresting police officer doesn't like the colour of your car.
- You paint your automobile a different colour after getting out of jail, and after that, you get pulled over and detained once again because a different police officer doesn't like the new colour of your car.
- This example shows the violation of rule of law.
