The American judiciary is under pressure: Donald Trump is questioning the independence of the courts and the principle of separation of powers. What does this mean for the future of the rule of law—and what lessons can Europe learn from this? In the third edition of the “Focus on the USA” series, experts discuss the role of law and the judiciary in the USA today, why independent courts are indispensable for democratic systems – and what lessons Europe can learn from this in order to keep its institutions resilient.
